Dharohar- A Heritage Interpretation Centre

Ahmedabad is an old city with a rich heritage. This project aims at preserving and celebrating that very heritage which has been passed on for generations through our ancestors. Thus the name 'Dharohar'. One of the key ideas for this project was the transition from narrow pathways to open courtyards. This concept was inspired from the narrow streets in the old city which can be experienced while one takes a stroll through the heritage city of Ahmedabad.
