A ruined stone house located at the entry point of the village was chosen as the site of the community activity center. The design challenge is to accommodate the preservation of the original structure as much as possible and installation of new functions. Two existing trees are kept on the site, a steel-tube-supported stairs were constructed around the trees, which leads to a new platform that also serves as the entrance to the second floor. Built during the pandemic, the project was completed mainly by the locals through a community participatory process with low-tech methods.
