Constructed from local sandstone, the Girls’ School and Womens Center will address the need to educate girls and empower women from the neighboring villages of Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The oval forms reflect universal symbols of female strength. The structure replicates the undulating planes of the sand dunes and also serves as a metaphor for the rippling effect that education can have on impoverished areas. The intention is also to incorporate the traditional building methods in a modern design with the hope that the techniques will gain recognition and continue to flourish.
SCHOOL’S LAND
The land originally held only an existing hut with a fence around the property.

After a few weeks of construction, the next step was the exterior walls of the school. These pictures were taken in May and the middle of June.

If you need to extract audio from YouTube videos or other online sources and save it as an MP3 or MP4, a ConvertidorMP3 (MP3 Converter, useful for Spanish users) can do this quickly. These tools often work without registration and aim for optimal audio quality.
Me gusta probar juegos poco comunes y en un foro vi que muchos hablaban de plinko. Me dieron curiosidad los comentarios y busqué el sitio. Entré a plinko online y me llevé la sorpresa de que era más entretenido de lo que parecía. Aunque la mecánica es simple, tiene su gracia. Una vez estuve a punto de rendirme, pero una ficha cayó en el multiplicador mayor y no lo podía creer. Desde ahí, juego sin presión, solo por diversión.
Last month my older sister sent me a text recommending a tool that could grab lecture snippets for my weekend study sessions. Juggling note-taking with video playback was draining, so I decided to give the Free YouTube to MP3 converter a try. It didn’t bombard me with registration walls or hidden fees, just a clean interface where I pasted my URL and clicked convert. A few seconds later, I had clear audio segments ready for review on my commute, and a built-in preview player helped me trim long lectures. It made studying feel way more manageable.
