RUINS COME BACK TO LIFE: CELEBRATING CRACO THROUGH ARTS


Made up of stone hills and clay ridges, Craco, which had to be abandoned as a result of earthquakes and landslides, is a magical place has been discovered especially by the film industry and many users prefer it for this purpose throughout the year. Craco can serve as a hub and livelihood for local people in less developed surrounding settlements. Besides the ruins, it also has usable structures. The foundations of this project are based on different disciplines to create adaptive reuse, design-build spaces for students, culture and art options and public spaces for townspeople and visitors to support environmental planning.
