Bhunga: Inside & Out Final Craft doc | Page 59

The construction of bhungas have changed when they are used for commercial purpose. The architecture of the bhunga is same but the materials used are different. You can see 2- storey bhungas near the white desert. The mud work is also used in different decorative purposes. The people (Meghwal Marwada) have adapted different styles of decoration as the mud work takes comparitively more time. They make colourful design patterns by the use of Dhawadi (colourful clay) bought from Khavda. Dhawadi come in multiple colours like blue, yellow, red and white which extracted from mines in Khavda. It is mixed with water and then painted. Image of a bhunga made for a farmhouse purpose. The Image on the left is of roof inside that bhunga, top is of the entrance and the bottom is of the bhunga. 59
