Exploring the SENSE of PLACE- Nava Naroda

"Sense of place is what makes one city or town different from another, but sense of place is also what makes our physical surroundings worth caring about."- Edward T. McMahon. The project is a hunt for pieces of 'SENSE OF PLACE' in the city periphery of Ahmedabad- NAVA NARODA. The study gave an insight about the various domains that needs to be considered in planning. Throughout the voyage, each element of the precinct was observed and connected to derive upon personal understanding. The voyage also talks about the people and life of Nava Naroda, which itself is its 'UNIQUENESS'.
