Traditional dwellings of Kutch


Typically round walled with a conical roof made of dry grass, the Bhunga is sturdy, climate friendly and socially engaging. It is such a humble yet grand structure: so dim and cool inside in contrast to the harsh, dry heat outside, so colourful and vibrant as opposed to the arid landscape it stands on, so spacious in spite of it's modest size.
I immediately fell in love.
