Re-Development of Mata Bhavani Stepwell Precinct

The studio aimed at developing a keen reading of the Urban environment. The aim was to understand the social, cultural and political dynamic that shape the structure of our constantly changing built environment.  The Mata Bhavani Stepwell precinct was one such area that held immense value that was lost in translation over the years. This project was an attempt to understand how does the changing experiential value of an immensely important historically significant monument impact the people associated with it and can the relation between the people and the monument be revived or re-defined?
