Gojal Valley | Gulmit, Ghulkin and Hussaini
In 2017, LVS research aimed to map the cultural practices and living patterns of inhabitants that have developed over time in Gojal Valley. For the Audio Visual Cultures workshop, the field research was carried out on land, animals, plants, water, etc which ultimately lead to listing apx 90 practices and 150 built environment patterns. This in order to archive the practices, and use the patterns in innovate ways in contemporary design and construction.

The workshops on Audio Visual Culture and Built Environment focused on documenting practices and patterns of indigenous people in order to archive them and to build a knowledge repository for future development in the area. The catalog will act as a knowledge base for anyone who wishes to intervene in the area with regard to architecture, tourism or cultural development. IPPC is a regular feature of LVS and will be available online and in print version.
