PRACHI MISTRY

hello,

My name is Prachi Mistry and I recently graduated from Institute of Architecture and Planning Nirma University, excited to begin my career as a professional Architect with a strong passion for exploring and innovating.

Architecture is a field that integrates all areas of expertise to bring dreams to life and make visions a reality. To me, architecture is an ongoing journey of discovery, where each new project represents a fresh start. I am always enthusiastic about embracing new concepts, acquiring additional skills, and expanding the boundaries of design.

YOUR VOICE

The intent of the programme was to address the opportunities in a place like Dharavi. A larger issue is the isolation of the place and hence it leads to many other problems so by introduction of a programme. By analysing the living patterns of the Dharavi people, one can notice that the people sped most of their time in semi open and open spaces spaces and the built spaces are used as shelter and storage space.

The issue of lack of open spaces in Dharavi is to be considered in programme. The project aims to second as a public space and a platform for auditorium and amphitheatre to be in a fabric where maximum opportunities and interaction by making Performing Arts Academy takes place.
