SHAHPUR - AREA PLANNING STUDIO

The aim was to explore different aspects of planning through preparing a Ward Development plan of a municipal ward within the city of Ahmedabad. The vision for the ward is Diverse but well connected. One of the proposals to achieve the vision is to regulate the development of CBD and TOD Zone to avoid the monotonous ho-hum of high rise buildings wiping city's colorful diversity. Through the process of conservative surgery, potential redevelopment area is identified. Sensitive restoration and maximum retention are done in order to preserve the diversity and identity of the ward 'Shahpur'.
