The portfolio summarises a detailed study of Thaltej precinct located in the Western part of Ahmedabad. Due to the expansion in the close proximity areas, the rural and urban migration within the Thaltej area increased. The development of Sarkhej Gandhinagar highway in 2002 led to the rise in commercial, residential and institutional typologies. A prominent contrast can be seen as the Thaltej gamthal still remains isolated from the development along the Sarkhej-Gandhinagar highway. The portfolio is divided into 6 sections ,each explaining one key element and its analysis. It brings out the prominent contrast between the Gamtal and the non-gamtal areas of the precinct.
