Cumulative Palimpsest

Gheekanta as an urban palimpsest - its form continually altered while bearing traces of earlier incarnations - it is in celebrating this complex and layered process of metamorphosis that the project draws its design ethos. The project focuses on connecting these traces with the present through intertwining movements. 'Can the station become a mediator for associating the heritage to the developing infrastructure?'
