throughout design.

ant hill on that site. Proper

light direction were gained

with ceiling reflectors. Walls

THESIS-

OLD AGE CUM

ORPHANAGE

Old people have a rich culture to share.

However they are considered as an insignificant

part of the society. Sharing and spreading of

their knowledge is an important consideration.

Children who have no home to go need someone to

love and care them. They need someone who can

teach them values and morals in life and make

them better persons in their life ahead.

The aim of the life is to rise higher to the path of

success and be the better citizens of tomorrow.

The old people are the ones who have reached a

point in their lives where they have gained a lot

of knowledge by experience and have a lot to

share about the culture and values.
