Andc Nasa Design Competition

Worked by: Teamwork

Located at the eastern bank of the walled city, ahmedabad, lies a world of its own. an amalgamation of diversity and a the foundation of ahmed shah’s creation, we recognise it as the ‘old city.’ The icons have been here all their lives, including the bhadra fort, teen darwaza, and sidi saiyyad,the project mainly focuses around preserving the heriatge of the city, bringing back the essence.

With this design we aim to create a green lung in the city, with minimum built intervention, creating a public plaza which becomes a place of rest in the hustle of the city and an extension of the food markets of manek chowk in the night. The plan of the plaza follows direction of the two existing trees and eventually allowing the design to follow its natural course.
