Our built heritage is the physical evidence of our cultural development, which is one of our most important cultural assets. Past classics can always coexist with proposed facilities. This can be achieved if modern architectural classics are also notified for protection.

At the start of 2001 the UNESCO World Heritage DCOMOMO launched a joint program for the identification, documentation and promotion of the built heritage of the 19th and 20th centuries -the program on Modern Heritage.
Modern heritage of Ahmedabad: • Ahmedabad is known for its rich architecture, varying from old heritage structures to modern buildings. • Recently, walled city of Ahmedabad is declared as world heritage city, but there are a large number of modern buildings too that can be considered as modern heritage of Ahmedabad. • Ahmedabad possesses buildings of great architects like Le Corbusier, Louis Kahn, Charles Correa, Achyut Kanvinde and many more. • In India, Ahmedabad is the only city which has a building designed by Louis Kahn, i.e., IIM-A • Also the city ranks second in having largest number of buildings designed by Le-Corbusier in India, after Chandigarh. 1950-1960 2

CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT MASTERPLAN
Proposal which we have given for the site were very relevant to the urban fabric of the modernism influenced Navrangpur, As the plot which was chosen for the proposal is owned by AMC, so it is their duty to preserve the modern heritage of Ahmedabad.
SITE LOCATION
BLOCKING EDGES
Proposal consist of redevelopment of entire plot, as huge parking which is constructed just beside the bus stop is very commercial architecture which is really not accepted to anyone.

Halls of maximum houses are filled with ganesh idols, especially during the few months before Ganesh Chaturthi. Men women and even children indulge in this task of preparing idols. 3. Every house has a small temple usually placed in the hall, no such pre-planned specific space for the temple is kept. SITE MAP

Community centre is the place for the Salatwada community. It showcase the marvellous work of salat which consist of Idols, engraving of the walls and different patterns of jail and Jarukha. It also attracts the tourists, by creating learning environment for the tourists with the professionals and master craftsman’s of the community. While if we see the handicrafts of the community, it is rich in its own character. So while man working as salat workers female of the community can also teach the tourist their handicrafts. While keeping in mind that the tourist which would like to stay in campus and enjoy the local meal can stay in community centre. I have tried to collaborate their living and their income generating. It is the hub which blends their culture and the work which they do together.
