Village houses in India and how it influenced my design

After studying the current living condition of the lambadi tribes in india i was thinking about the next best thing for them instead of their current bad state houses and community sense that they try to make but fail badly.

I decided to study the village houses in the surrounding context as find a good example which could be used as a precedent to design the new housing and other ameneties based on it.

A good example that i found was a small village called polkampally which is about 50 miles from the site that i have currently chosen. The visuals i was able to get and also my personal visit there a couple of years back made me understand the life in the village and how things work. 

The construction techniques are very simple as well as the materials used for them. I thought this would be really good as the lambadi people are economically poor.

The images below show the life in a village which i am planning to recreate for the lambadi people as it suits the site and the current context.

thick walls as they are made with earth and pivoted window

 most of the houses have sloping roof with wodden posts as its easy to construct

 The houses do not have a toilet but have a wash area as people don no like a toilet inside the premisis of the house

 street view

a broken house makes it easy to understand the structure materials

Seeing a typical cattleshed helped me understand the design and standard for designing one

The outdoor seating area (katta) acts a space where neighbours interact and the cow dung flooring is a common site in the village

 storage space in the kitchen

Typical street view showing houses aligned compared to seperate houses. both kinds are seen in the village without any particular pattern.
