LEARNING FROM DHARAVI
Land Ownership Patterns and Redevelopment Strategies Mumbai, INDIA
Architecture Thesis Prof. Arch. Valeria Federighi (valeria.federighi@polito.it)
Koliwada is a small village in Dharavi that has been excluded from the Dharavi Redevelopment Plan. But the officials of Koliwada want to redevelop the area for themselves and in the process want to segregate the renters to achieve some private space.
Mumbai in India
Dharavi in Mumbai
Expansion of Dharavi through Koliwada
The idea of the people in power is to demolish everything in Koliwada
And reconstruct keeping one area for the owners and segregating the renters on the other side of the road in high-rise structures
Owners Renters
So I have developed a strategy for Koliwada to achieve the same in a less destructive manner. The main idea for Koliwada is to use the process of Incremental development with small interventions that can be carried out over time by the people with the help of Koli Jamaat. It involves a segregation of owners and renters through floors and the provision of community spaces in Koliwada.

Step 1: Construction of a new floor above the existing building to substitute for the open space
Step 2: Demolition of the existing house after new construction
Step 3: Space being used as a social and community area by the residents.
Step 1: Identifying the structurally weak building and demolishing it
Step 2: Reconstruction of the demolished building while substituting for the open space & demolition of the existing house
Step 3: Space being used as a social and community area by the residents.

DOMINICAN MOTHERHOUSE Pennsylvania, USA Individual Project, Design Unit-1
Redesign of a unbuilt project of a motherhouse originally designed by Louis I. Kahn in the state of Pennsylvania, U.S.A. The task was to re-think a completely new structure of the project on the original plans characterized by introducing a brick masonry vault. The project includes a chapel, a school for the nuns, a dormitory and a refractory along with the kitchen.

RE-LINK PUKOU Pukou, Nanjing, CHINA Individual Project, Design Unit-2
Redesign of a forgotten neighborhood in the Pukou district of Nanjing city. Surrounded by high rise buildings, river and highways, yet completely abandoned by the authorities. The area’s current condition is defined by the poor living conditions, damaged properties and an unorganized street market. The thought was to rehabilitate the neighborhood, yet still maintaining the cultural essence of the place.
_MASTERPLAN_
Divided into sectors - residential, commercial, residential-commercial. Redesigned and organized the existing street market. Bridges as the connecting element to the city and with the various parts of the district.

TRANS-USE WORKSHOP Turin, Italy Model for Re-use of an Industrial Site
The summer school is based on two assumptions: 1. The activity of production (industry) is a significant mechanism for the transformation of the contemporary city. In our reasoning, every sector, both manufacturing and services, will be taken into consideration; 2. The current relationship between city and production is connected to the legacies of the past, whether they are evaluated as positive or not. Starting from these two considerations, the interdisciplinary scientific and educational program built interactions and synergies by addressing the following issues and objectives: • Understand how production has changed and what are the current relationships between production and city; • Identify the spatial transformations due to the change of the productive activities; • Clarify the role of industrial legacy and its relations with urban transformations at different scales.

TORINO CENTER
TERRITORIAL CONNECTIVITY: A territorial approach to the project site highlights its location near different major communication routes, such as Turin’s ring road that connects the city with the airport of Turin Caselle, the metropolitan city of Milan as well as with the French border.
The axis of Corso Regina Margherita allows a fast and rapid connection to the city centre. We can see the potential of the site to establish itself as an urban gateway, access and exit of the city of Turin.

Turin is characterized by a high number of wide section road axes, “corsi”, which create unique perspectives within the urban fabric and visually connect with the surrounding territory. In particular, Corso Regina Margherita creates a very strong axis with the Alps to the west and the Turin hill to the east, with Superga dominating the landscape.

University of The former ThyssenKrupp is the meeting point between the road network and the natural scale of both the urban and the territorial scale. Infact Turin it is located at the crossroads between an important road axis, Corso Regina Margherita, and the river Dora, green infrastructure within the city. This huge green infrastructure, going from Parco della Coletta to Parco della Pellerina, and furthermore to the agricultural fields, connects our Parco Dora site to the city through a slow a green mobility system. Each green space creates a connection with the river and the city, with different level of accessibility.
