Meet Dhanjibhai Kakadiya

UR3002

The project aims to understand and implement theories, Human Dimension by Jan Gehl and Phenomenology of Place by Christian Norberg Schulz, to redevelop a garden and its surrounding neighbourhood, located in Paldi area of Ahmedabad City. One of the things that the project emphasise on is to prioritise the intangible aspects; feelings, emotions, experiences which in a real sense defines the quality of space for its users and addresses their psychic needs. The way this was done was through designing guidelines that would focus on bringing human dimension in the neighbourhood, identifying major activity generators on the site and establishing the connection between them to enhance existing activity patterns and also make way for new activity programs and patterns to take place in the neighbourhood.
