Chandkheda - A Dense Neighborhood in Focus

The portfolio exhibits my understanding, analysis & representation of a one square kilometer area in Chandkheda, Ahmedabad. The study was conducted in a span of three months by means of physical surveys and personal interviews. The precinct is a growing neighborhood with a vibrant culture, affordable housing, short commutes, parks, education and health care systems. The addition of density gives the opportunity to build a community to connect to the ones that have always been around us. This begins to happen when people have the chance to talk to each other and congregate. Density offers that chance to be together.
