Earthbag Mandala Village
by Kikuma Watanabe

Kikuma Watanabe is an associate proffessor at Kochi University of Technology in Japan and is responsible for these designs. Some of his other designs can be seen at the Uganda Ecovillage, the Community Center, and the model dome.

According to psychologist Carl Jung, the pictures that patients of mental disease draw becomes a mandala when they are recovering. The mandala is an archetypal image seen all over the world; it is thought to be a shape of healing.

When attempting to assist disaster-stricken areas, local people were very pleased with village planning that was shaped with mandalas. These plans healed people like Jung's mandala.

The two images below are conceptual drawings for a Mandala Village in India.

The remaining images below are conceptual drawings for a Mandala Village in Afghanistan.
