这栋奇迹般的建筑是一所学校，是一个200英尺×120英尺的椭圆形结构，坐落在印度拉贾斯坦邦神秘的塔尔沙漠中心的广阔英亩顶部，融入四周干旱的沙漠景观。该学校由纽约女建筑师戴安娜·凯洛格（Diana Kellogg）设计，是由一位女性，为女性群体创建的杰伊瑟尔梅尔沙漠中的灯塔。椭圆形是赋权的象征，用以象征女性力量之无限，并无缝融入该地区的沙丘平面，引人注目的弧形墙壁使人联想到杰伊瑟尔梅尔著名的城堡。
This architectural marvel of a school is a fantastical 200 ft x 120 ft oval structure that sits atop sprawling acres in the heart of the mystic Thar Desert in Rajasthan, India, blending into the arid landscape. Designed by a female New York City-based architect Diana Kellogg, the school was created by a woman for women to stand as a beacon in it’s desert kingdom of Jaisalmer. The oval shape serves as a symbol of empowerment meant to represent femininity and infinity, as well as blend seamlessly into the planes of sand-dunes in the region, with striking curved walls reminiscent of Jaisalmer’s famous fort.
由于该建筑是为支持女性教育的非营利组织建造的，团队尽一切努力使设计降低经济成本。可持续性对凯洛格和她的团队至关重要，团队与当地工匠（通常是女孩们的父亲）合作，使用手工雕刻的当地斋沙默尔砂岩，共同建造了这座Rajkumari Ratnavati女子学校。对于凯洛格来说，在为社区建造的建筑中融入社区是至关重要的，同时还要创建有助于减少碳排放的基础设施。传统的建筑细节和建筑技术与土著遗产细节相结合，使建筑在该地区更加具有真实和代表性。
Since the building was built for a non profit to support girls education, every effort was made toward economic design. Sustainability was of utmost importance to Kellogg and her team, who designed theThe Rajkumari Ratnavati Girl’s School and worked entirely with all local craftsmen -- often the fathers of the girls -- to build the school using hand-carved local Jaisalmer sandstone. It was vital to Kellogg to include the community in a building made for the community, while also creating an infrastructure that helped reduce carbon emissions. Traditional architectural details and building techniques were combined with indigenous heritage details so that the structure felt authentic to the region.
设计团队聘请了当地的石材工匠，建筑采用可持续设计，屋顶使用了回收瓷砖，教室内部使用石灰石膏，建筑95%的材料取自当地。设计团队遵循当地古老的集水技术，最大限度地利用学校内的雨水和循环的灰水。
The design team employed local stone craftsmen and the building is sustainably designed with recycled ceramic tile for the roof, lime plaster for the classroom interiors and 95% local materials. The design team followed the local ancient water harvesting techniques to maximize the rain water and recycled gray water in the school.
在学校内部，迎接人们的是一面装饰着diyas石质花纹的墙壁，墙上装饰着小石花奖章，用以表彰每个教室和项目的捐助者。庭院中设有宽阔的楼梯。椭圆形庭院引导人们进入教室，办公室和教师室都装饰有当地用红木制成的家具，以及经典的charpai编织座椅。曾经用于用于隐藏女性保护隐私的传统Jalis屏风墙，被改造成了校园的护墙，得到了新的诠释。
Inside the school, visitors are greeted by a wall decorated with diyas with small stone flower medallions signifying each classroom and the donors for the project and a sweeping staircase in the courtyard. The elliptical courtyard leads you to classrooms, an office and teacher’s room all donned with furniture made locally out of rosewood with classic charpai woven seating. A parapet wall is also featured as a reinvention of the Jalis, screen walls traditionally used to hide women for privacy.
