The repurposing of commercial space below a residential complex that aims to
educate users about sustainability circular economy and provide them with a healthy lifestyle.

It was created to respond to the climate change challenge and represents a step closer to reducing the building industry's carbon footprint. Refurbishing old buildings instead of demolishing them and reducing operational energy are good ways to achieve fewer emissions.
The Source operates on the principles of a circular economy, with internal agriculture through vertical farming, efficient waste management, and water conservation. This unique space also hosts a variety of educational, cultural, and recreational activities, making it a vibrant hub of Sustainable living.
