Option 3:
Reprogram into a multi-functional hybrid space that serves as a casual place for communal activities but can also host occasional religious and cultural activities.
The space could be reprogrammed as a greenery space as outlined in Option 1 of the toolkit, but it could also accommodate occasional religious or cultural celebrations as outlined in Option 2 of the toolkit. This merge of both Option 1 and Option 2 makes the space a multi-purposed in accommodating varying community activities.
Spatial Transformation

After
Due to the flexibility of the both Option 1 and Option 2, the spaces can easily be changed over time by the users adopting varying aesthetics, activities, fragrances, colors, and vibrancy as dictated by the community.
The adoption of Option 3 by the whole community of Shibam would create an even bigger scale transformation and sound that would give the community a new ambience.
