Hathigaon: A settlement of Elephants and Mahouts.

This monograph illustrates the processes of conception, planning, and building of Hathigaon - a settlement for working elephants and the families that care for them in the Indian city of Jaipur. It highlights how the adoption of a strategic, design-centered approach can help create both contextually-appropriate habitation and an overall armature for all human and animal life to flourish in line with contemporary design sensibilities.
