Nomadism is one of the earliest interactions with the Built Environment. Nomads are the communities who travel around taking their contemporary spaces along with them wherever they go without leaving anything behind . They sometimes also serve us with goods they produce like wool, milk and much more. This is not a life time process, it is seasonal. Putting myself in that situation feels like I am free to explore the world and at the same time myself. It sounds fun and adventurous but digging more into their lives, I feel it is not what it looks like. It is difficult to manage spaces in that way. They have totally changed the concept of Architecture in their lives. Architecture for them is just the space they live in without any mud, concrete or brick built environment rather they make their shelters using mostly flexible materials so that it can be easy to transport and can be handy. They can also be a part of “Architecture without Architects”.
There is curiosity, willingness to search and explore, this is what a nomadic thinking or mentality sounds like. The very feature that makes them more significant is their mentality of local-ness to a place. I wonder how they had been utilizing the resources according to the availability around different regions. There is a flowing nature in both, Nomadism and the world.
