The interior curve of the courtyard at the Rajkumari Ratnavati Girls School in Jaisalmer. The courtyard acts as a water-harvesting facility with a cistern in the middle. The rare fruit trees were preserved within the oval with steps around for the girls to play and sit in the shade.

The entrance to the school, decorated with diyas for Diwali. The small flowers are carvings signifying each classroom and the donors for the project. Facing page: A classroom interior showing the high transom windows that allow for diffused light from the south. The high ceilings help to keep the space cool.

These steps lead to an open area on the roof, where classes can be held in outdoors and students can catch the breeze. Facing page: This staircase eventually becomes a ramp and leads to the solar-paneled shading canopy on the roof of the building. The stairs and ramp are a play area hidden by a large jail under the solar canopy.

A shot from the roof of the school giving a hint of the elliptical nature of the building. The view west, towards the sunset, looks to the preserved natural sand-scape of the famous Sam Dunes.

Girl students from the local village, dressed in their Sabyasachi uniforms, play in the courtyard of their soon-to-open school.
