The Approach

This body of work positions Meghalaya's East Khasi Hills as a world-class, ecologically grounded tourism destination — balancing visitor experience with the fragility of the landscape and the identity of the Khasi community.

Interventions span scales: new township and knowledge-city frameworks near Shillong, immersive cave and gorge experiences at Mawmluh and Cherrapunji, and river-trail infrastructure along the Umngot. Each is designed to read the terrain — its slopes, water, and forest — rather than impose on it.

As designer and 3D visualization lead, I developed the spatial frameworks and experiential renders that carried these proposals through client and government review.
