Uncovering features of an Active City

To respond to the demand of expansion in the rapidly growing urban centers, governments facilitate such new developments through various development mechanisms. This studio operated within the framework of the Integrated Township Policy, involving design on a large contiguous developer driven land under single ownership. The site considered for this township is a greenfield site in the western outskirts of Ahmedabad, along the upcoming Dedicated Freight corridor, and in the influence of the proposed Knowledge and Institution Zone. The focus was to create flexible framework plans that enable sustainable, inclusive neighborhoods that are also responsive to ecological assets.
