Retroactive Housing

Surat faces a housing crunch despite existing older structures. This project aims to revitalize these forgotten gems through retrofitting and repair. We'll focus on historic housing in Zampa Bazaar and modernist government housing, giving them a new lease on life. Instead of demolition, this project champions conservation through thoughtful interventions in Surat's residential landscape.
