Urban Regeneration Manek Chowk - Adaptable Connect

The design aims to reinvent, conserve, and restore Ahmedabad's historical identity by introducing social meeting places through Connect. The idea of urban porosity is explored,  by reviving existing connections revolving around the notion of walkability. The primary intent is to encourage people to leave their cars and restore the streets as lively public areas by prioritising pedestrians and rearranging the traffic produced by layers of contesting sellers, vehicles, and pedestrians.
