Smriti Van Earthquake Museum in Bhuj, Gujarat.

Designed by Vastushilpa Sangath LLP, the design of every element in Smriti Van symbolizes rebirth, renewal, hope, and the beginning of the journey of life. "Plant a tree for each victim" is the short and precise brief that Smriti Van is designed around. The trees together form the world's largest Miyawaki Forest where every drop of water is conserved through several reservoirs that are placed and designed strategically.
#MyGreatFacade is a series presented by Fenesta Windows in association with #Buildofy
