The project is based on the study of spaces under the flyover. With the rapid increase of urbanization in metro cities the need for land, and infrastructure tends to decrease void or public spaces in such cities. There are many spaces that could transform into well-designed urban voids. Amongst these spaces, residual spaces, under flyover have the potential to become engaging spaces. It began by documenting and analyzing the space under the flyover and its surroundings such as movement, utilities, activities, etc. Furthermore, the suggested design considers flexible spaces that one space can be used for different activities or events.  

CASE STUDY: This was a case study in Mumbai about development under the flyover. There were two site first was One green mile and other was the Matunga flyover
SITE LOCATION: One Green Mile situated in lower parrel is surrounded by almost commercial buildings, because of this commercial area the people who use this are mixed like people do come to rest, children from the neighboring area do come to play with their parents, and also people do come for office meetings.
SITE LOCATION: Matunga flyover situated in Matunga is completely surrounded by residential area, and because of this residential area the people who uses this space are almost of this residential area.
SITE LOCATION: Shreyas Flyover near Dharnidhar Derasar, Ahmedabad Gujarat. The above photos are few observation like individual enchrochment, Footpath being used as parking, the whole street is all dead in terms of activities and movement.
EXERCISE 1 was site impression where we have observe the area and try to put on paper in terms of representation. SITE DOCUMENTATION: This was a group work and we all had 25m part each to measure and then we had to stitch it altogether.
SITE ANALYSIS: The above sheet is analysis of movement pattern at three different time period (afternoon, evening, night) of pedestrians, vehicles, parking.
