No Ground Zero _ Shastrinagar Farming Community

Shastrinagar is an area in Ahmedabad where you can easily find vegetables sold by locals. It was the main thing I noticed while visiting the site and it became the main concept of my project as well. I wanted to make the production faster, easier and give the sellers a proper market. Combining social housing and hydroponics is very space consuming, so I decided to add another attribute to this project - putting it up in the air and deleting the ground zero. Everything that touches the ground is now public space - parks, playgrounds, jogging areas. Everything above the ground with the exception of few maintenance and technical buildings is private - housing, market and hydroponics.
