Presented by JASMINE JOEVITA DSILVA 17BARC025

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Design is a process, a process with numerous stepping stones and downfalls that help curate an extensively detailed work of Art. As I assemble this Report, I would like to take this opportunity to express my Gratitude to The Board and Faculties of CMR University School of Architecture. Working on a Redevelopment project for a Public Sphere helped me establish my interest in Urbanism and the interactions and implications of Architecture in an Urban context. The past six months spent on Research, Study and Design development of the Project were progressive only with the support and guidance of a handful of excellent mentors. Firstly, I wish to express my sincere gratitude towards my guide Ar. Ashwath Govindaraj, without whose ideologies, patience and knowledge in the subject and the willingness to brainstorm ideas and discuss my work for as long as I needed helped me tremendously. I would like to thank the Thesis Coordinators Ar. Akshaya Narsimhan and Ar. Anusha Hemanth, The Director Ar. Murlidhar Reddy and the Jury panel for their valuable feedback with each review. I would also like to thank my Family for their support throughout this process, to Asmitha Prabhu and her family for their warm welcoming Home and all the dalitoi. And most importantly, my confidant R. SMayor and Team Amogus for all the time and energy invested in helping me out, being my biggest cheerleader, listening to my ideas and most importantly picking me up on all the low days and encouraging me to continue working.

ABSTRACT

The market place is an institution that teaches self-advancement, private acquisition and domination of nature. It’s way of thinking is incompatible with the round river. Ecological harmony is a non market value that takes a collective will to achieve. -Donald Worster

Design is the only thing that differenciates one product from another in the market place. -Norlo Ohga Markets are places with enormous dynamic activities ,huge crowding of people who are hustling all around surrounded by Chaos. Markets speak of all sorts of goods and products, people, noises,colours and smells accumulated under one roof. The terminology ‘Market’ varies from place to place as well as from people to people. Some may call it the Bazaar, and some may refer to it as the Mandi or Pente. Markets are crucial nodes of cities which bring together a business backbone and also a bridge between various cultural backgrounds and languages that assemble. These markets are further classified according to the kind of produce or goods they commercialise. May it be in the case of fruits and vegetables, processed goods, a butcher’s market, clothing and accessories, even for Hardware and machineries and have come into practice with the origin of different communities that adapt to their geographical situations and put forth a practice. Narrowing down our focus to one such communities is the Mogaveera’s of Coatal India and their business of fishing and the establishment of Fish Markets along the Coast of Mangalore. The clutter and chaos, the hundreds of fishing vessels sailing into the harbour, crates of fish spilt over the concrete floor to segregate the best catch,

thousands of people gathered around to bid on the best catch as they rush to leave for the rest of their chores, fishermen stacking empty crates in the open, cluttered traffic, noisy ambience and the cherry on the cake being the concentrated smell of fish spread across the area gives a brief picture on this Fishermen’s Market in Bunder, Mangalore. As it all defines Chaos, there is also a spectrum of vibrance created by this community that cannot be witnessed else where and hence the project led with rethinking Norlo Ogha’s idea of how ‘Design is the only thing that differenciates one product from another in the market place.’ at the same time can Design of such a market itself speak of its bridge between remarkable vibrance and the neverending chaos. With which the project aims to study, analyse and understand the market typologies in Bunder and then speculate a possible long term solution that deals with the kind of density that approaches the site in terms of business, accommodation and even tourism. The project deals with a range of stakeholders including the mogaveeras, the locals and the exporters bringing together their social, political and economic origins and consequences. The project is also aimed at changing the image and improves the business and living conditions and set an example for similar markets in an around the Coasts.

CELEBRATING DHAKKE : RE-INVENTING THE FISHERMAN’S MARKET

RE-INVENTING THE PUBLIC SPHERE Introduction to Markets

The origin of a market is obscure, but substantial documentary shows that over centuries, the survival of a growing city spiraled around its market area, rulers and dynasties discovered pockets of water bodies and established their empire by plotting out its commercial zone also known as the Market around which the settlements spread out in concentric rings. The spaces were located as Node junctions at Transport Hubs and at the core of consumption.The growth of a settlement is parallel to the growth of the commercial activity of the same which directly depends on the trade patterns of these respective Markets. With trade and commerce, a community is encouraged to diversify its consumption and further work on exploration of goods and respective specialization. Originally, a market seemed to have three different points of origin, primarily in rural fairs where an individual makes enough for his family, further it grew into a landlord system with rental transactions and the third tier including international trade and commerce. As this defines the user lifestyle and the stakeholders of these spaces, we notice that all of it revolves around the mere rule of providing for a consumer which promotes the idea of having a built up space that houses these activities. These clustered developments give rise to multiple activities coming together in a bound area which defines the vibrance and chaos around the same. While Vibrance refers to the impact of a variety of lifestyles coinciding creating an enthusiastic, lively arrangement. Parallely the term ‘Chaos’ may be further defined either by the clustered growth of the market or the crowding or even the lack of an architectural system that would retain the life in these spaces.

India, being one of the most populated countries in the world survives and grows depending on its system of trade and commerce that revolves around concentric rings ranging from the international trade of goods to a small scale supply of basic material to an individual consumer. With the pandemic attack in 2020, these individuals are forced to tame the traditional ways of human interaction by strictly maintaining social distancing and promoting sanitization which lacks to coincide with the ideal concept of a market that has been defined over centuries. The General guidelines for the pandemic discussed the idea of social distancing which involved restriction in the places of crowding and public interphase, slot system of accessing public spaces and limited movement in and around the cities. At the beginning of the pandemic there was a serious attempt to follow the protocol, which drastically vanished given the lifestyle of the communities around. Human interaction had levelled up, markets started spilling out into the roads and streets, public transportation geared up. All in all people got back to living in chaos jeopardizing the health of everyone around them. Can Architecture be a solution to promote segregation and establish a system in these spaces? If so, then how much will the design ideologies drift away from the vernacular practices? And if there is a huge difference established, will the communities adapt to them easily?

AIM OF THE STUDY Scope, Purpose and Direction

To formulate an Architectural System in the post Pandemic Society that would redefine the activity pattern in a market space. The scope of the research would include understanding the Cluttering patterns and spatial effeciencies of the Architectural spaces that knit up to rise as a Market.

Research will include study of The origin and History of Markets, study of geometry and forms, co relation between built and open, and elements that promote decluttering. It will also focus on the comparitive analysis of multiple Market studies further studying the impacts of architectural design on the social, cultural, and economic factors influencing the revitalization of the urban marketplace.

ARCHITECTURAL THESIS REPORT | 2022 | JASMINE JOEVITA DSILVA

CRITERIA OF SELECTION

A Market is an everyday affair of the localites and consumers that are termed as the user groups or stake holders of the space. The work ethic at a Market space can vary from person to person. Considering the types, A serviceman would drive in to reload the goods and products that would not require any level of public interaction and is done at the secluded edge of the public space. The goods would further be stored and arranged in its deemed storage unit by designated staff members. Further from which the product is displayed at the counter under the supervision of a salesperson who engages with the crowd with an intention of marketting his goods. The last category is that of a consumer who walks in with an intent of buying supplies. The movement pattern and the time frame used by the customers will vary person to person. Each of these Stake holders wrap around the Architecture of the spaces to fulfill their activity pattern. A study of this mapping, the historical relevance, the nature of the spaces, scale and geometry, built and unbuilt relationships will promote an analysis that will redefine the Architectural design of a Market to fit in the current Urban Environment.

PROJECT SYNOPSIS

HYPOTHESIS

The Architecture of a Market is People Centric focussing on efficient Activity Patterns, hence the Behaviour of a Market depends on its spatial Characteristics regardless of it being built or unbuilt, with which the aim of the study being to formulate an Architectural System in the post Pandemic Society that would redefine the activity pattern in a market space making it more efficient, decluttered and at the same time reviving the Vibrance that exists there. Markets play a crucial role in one’s daily life and the quality of these markets are in a very dilapidated situation. Even with the updated times the markets around are still of the Olden era.

The question arises here is that : there has been upgradation in different public sectors such as theatres, malls etc in terms of comfort, advancement and modernism. But the same has not applied in public spaces like markets, the ideologies behind the markets of now remain same as it was decades ago. This Thesis revolves around how an individual could re-imagine and re-think the life of markets towards pushing them one step higher to cope up with the fast pacing world.

SITE

From the dissertation study, conclusions were drawn that focused on markets being the nodes of interaction not just for trade and Commerce but also in exchange of culture and language between two settlements and communities. Narrowing down are focus to one of those specific communities the Mogaveera’s of coastal India with which the project would look into redesigning a fisherman’s market at the harbors of Mangalore. The origin of the Mangalorian term comes from the word ‘DOCK’ or more precisely referring to the Harbour and the culture of Fish business. Celebrating Dhakke, the terminology refers to the community of Mogaveera’s and their business of fishing. The traditional Dhakke was established in the year 2012 with all its Glory in the field of fish import export, wholesale and retail trade, international business of dry fish and process goods, but something that the market and Harbour lacks is efficient infrastructure and an architectural solution to work with the kind of density that approaches the site on a regular basis.

Why are we looking into this project? The proportion of the services the market tends to cater does not go in line with the density of population that it can house on a regular basis. A study observed that there are about 150 vessels approaching the site regularly during different intervals of the day and park along the 293m long built Harbour edge to unload the day’s catch and further refuel for the upcoming sail. These vessels carry tons of fish that is further assembled on the Harbour to segregate and commercialize, this results in Auctions for fish taking place on site which involuntarily tends to attract a huge crowd regularly. With respect to the lumpsum business of fish carried forward there is also a huge clutter created by the incoming loading vehicles. The trucks, tempos and carriers try to reach out to the Harbour edge assuming to be at the closest proximity to load and transport fish while neglecting the hinderance caused for other fishermen and dealers around. On the other hand the stacking of crates also takes places on the remaining ground which restricts the pedestrians from activating the market plane of the Harbour.

The study further branched into understanding the user groups of the Fishermen’s market in Bunder and the level of comfort and the essence of the commercial practice on site which resulted in drawing conclusions that the market was excelling in the business aspect in terms of life of fishing along the shores, including its local and international trade.

On the other hand the user experience with designated market spaces declined low. The market faces severe problems with respect to efficient use of built spaces, organised open areas, fisherman- public interphases, treatment of the harbour edge, parking facilities and hygiene.

ARCHITECTURAL THESIS REPORT | 2022 | JASMINE JOEVITA DSILVA

The aim of the Thesis is to study the origin and business culture of the coasts of Mangalore and implement the study to curate an Architectural system around the zone promoting sustainiblity, hygiene and safety yet retaining the cultural heritage of the place and giving back to the Fishermen population of the city.

With respect to the context, the site would ideally be along the edge of the respective sea so the project would involve harbour edge treatments, interaction between different hierarchical tiers of the business and the space acting as a trasportation hub for the goods carriers.

The site measuring about 7.4 acres of land is situated along the estuary formed by the Arabian Sea and the Gurpura river and is in Bunder, which is the prominent commercial hub serving the city of Mangalore. The images on top refer to the density of catch and the number of vessels that approach the harbor edge

regularly carry tons of fish. Apart from this the people gathered here are in thousands scattering all through the site and hence this market is in serious need for redevelopment to oragnise and function smoothly amplifying the prominent business factor it houses.

Fig 014. Mangalore, illustration Source : https://www.123rf.com

Mangalore a beautiful port city of the Indian state of Karnataka is located between the Arabian Sea and the Western Ghats about 352km west of Bangalore. Mangalore was named after the diety ‘MangalDevi’, the presiding diety of the MangalDevi Temple where ‘Mangala’ means auspicious in the Kannada language. Mangalore was an important centre of the Indian Ocean trade on the Malabar coast in earlier times and is considered the heart of a distinct multi-linguistic cultural region and the homeland of the Tulu speaking people. The city developed as a port in the Arabian sea during the ancient times and has since developed into a major port of India and is the country 7th largest container port.

Mangalore has a tropical monsoon climate and is under the direct influence of the Arabian Sea branch of the Southwest monsoon. It receives about 95% of its total annual rainfall between May to September and is extremely dry from December to March. Humidity is approximately 75% on average and the city experiences moderate to gasty winds. The old Mangalore port is a fishing port located at Bunder, Mangalore where a large number of mechanized boats Anchor. The traffic at this port was 1,22,000 tons during the years 2003 and 2004. New Mangalore Port handled over 100000 Twenty-foot equivalent units of containers during the year 2017-18. Fishing is a traditional occupation and the products are sold in the surrounding region.

INTRODUCTION TO SITE Dhakke in Bunder is an ideal site for the Re-developing Harbour and market due to its location and the existing potential for a lively downtown culture, surrounded by abundant fishing vessels and sources for incoming trade, Bunder currently lacks an efficient marketplace to interact with the public and reinforce a ‘sea to table’ approach of shopping.

The site is currently occupied by the existing fish Harbour, export centre and market which do reflect the essence of an active culturally rich area but also falls short when it comes to the efficiency of these functional spaces. The underdeveloped market is an eyesore that retracts from the cultural richeness the site holds.

The site selected is 7.4 acres in land and is situated in the Bunder area of Mangalore. The site is along the New Port Road which is also the cities busiest thoroughfair. This public market place responds to the hustlijng lifestyle of the city with equal active energy since Bunder is also the commercial hub serving the city of Mangalore. The location makes it easily accessible to the locals, exporters, fishermen approaching from the fishing villages on the Bengre Island and the other everyday wageworkers. The traffic, noise and attention from the surrounding neighbourhoods will compliment the busy daily activity occurring on site.

Located at the prominent hub of the city, the longitudinal edge of the site being the harbour edge has the potential to reach out to all the neighbouring states and countries, and also acts as a primary gateway to access the city via waterways. As the site already holds responsibility for all the existing functions, the market design would take forward the studies from the very ground level and help curate spaces to the best of their efficiency.

UNUSED WATER EDGE 2004

PLANNING THE DHAKKE 2006

The site remained barren and in minimal use as the fish harbour and market were situated in Bolar and reached out to the city from the southern end of the estuary.

Increase in use of site for unloading of catch slowly implementing a functional Harbor on site. Desing and construction of storage spaces and halls for the fishermen crowd

Due to constant problems of turning radius for vessels and inefficiency to accomodate the density of vessel traffic, the harbor in Bolar was failing which also proposed the intent of moving the city’s official fish harbour and market to Bunder, towards the northern edge of the estuary. The proposal was taken forward because of the multiple benefitting factors such as, 1.Larger area for the market 2.Longer harbor edge to accomodate more vessels 3.Closer proximate to the fishing villages on the Bengre island 4.Easily accessible to the city of Mangalore.

Increase in footfall print and vehicular traffic, growth of fishing business. Terminating edge of site used as boat repair yards from where the vessels would be further parked towards the southern edge. The Yethhar island situated about 100m away from the site was identified to be used for drying fish and storage. The Yethhar Island was accessible for the fisherman using local fairies and was restricted from the public.

DHAKKE IN BUNDER 2012

FLOURISHING BUSINESS 2019

In the year 2012, The Dhakke in Bunder was officially inaugrated which resulted in multiplication of the business that brought in huge number of vessels, catch, as well as vehicular and pedestrian traffic on a regular basis. This also led to the establishment of multiple offices, the department of fisheries, police stations, post offices and other ancillary facilities for the Mogaveera community to be established on site.

Further down the line the business still flourishes and brings in regular catch that vary from lobsters and foot long kingfishers to silver fish and Prawns.

A range of vessels including Deep Sea Trawllers, Parsin boats and Kara fishing boats approach the site regularly and brought in a variety of catch that would be put out for auction, sold around vendos zones, sent for food processing and even for export to the neighbouring states and countries. The timeline also noticed the shrinking of the Yethhar island along the northern and the southern ends which further concentrated the drying areas towards the centre.

The southern edge of the site further extends to be used for vessel parkings and the site primarily for unloading of the catch, auctions and retail trade. The study also notices that the site was cluttered with spread out vehicular traffic and stacking of crates which result in minimum unorganised pedestrian friendly zones causing discomfort and clutter. The Yethhar island further shrinked from the southern edge about 50m over the span of a few years defining the proximity of the survival of the island in the future with respect to the rising sea level.

CELEBRATING DHAKKE : RE-INVENTING THE FISHERMAN’S MARKET

CONTEXT The city of Mangalore only has one fishing Harbour and market in closest proximity to the residential zones around Hampankatta, Bendore, Kulshekhar and around apart from the smaller scale local markets and fish bazaars. An efficiently designed public wholesale marketspace in Bunder will fulfill the need and bring the nearby crowding closer to understanding the traditional culture of fishing in Mangalore. The site is located to promote a successful Market by being easily accessible to the fishermen, the other employees, the local Shoppers and the wholesalers and exporters. Fig 020. A fisherman’s market Source : https://www.flickr.com

TYPOLOGY The project intends to create a bustling public fish market space that will become the heart of Mangalore, where the community, the locals and the tourist participate in the long standing tradition of buying fish directly from the fisherman at the harbour. This type of market will help revitalise Mangalore by encouraging community interaction, promoting and showcasing the cultures of fishing practice by the Mogaveera’s. The market aims to become a cultural icon and the one that would breathe life back into Bunder and the neighbouring areas of Mangalore. The urban market will focus on selling fresh catch both on the wholesale and retail scale and become a daily cultural attraction for both the locals and the tourists. Fig 021.

CULTURAL RELEVANCE The market plays an immense roll in the community for the Mogaveera’s and the local Mangaloreans as a daily cultural attraction. This market will emphasize the social interaction that occurs around fish and its demand, sale and consumption. With Mangalore already being recognised as one of the leading cities for trade of fish in an around the area, the recognition for the market will amplify and attract more people to visit and further understand the traditional process of fishing.

ORGANIZATION Through its interactive skin, confused air and lively energy this urban fish market will invite the public to enter and explore the bustling activities and sensual qualities within the built spaces. The market will command public attention from the street, and the freshly available catch that is showcased through the architecture will provide awareness and to entice one’s senses. The market will promote to be more than just a destination but also emphasize on the journey and will be organised for wandering and exploring with the scattered assortment of diverse special qualities resulted from opening parts of the building established by porosity.

Evolution of a dense fabric of settlements from the coast towards the interiors of the present City “As per the new notification, temporary structures supporting tourism, food stalls etc will get permission. Ten beaches recommended by the tourism department like Panambur, Someshwar, Tannirbhavi, Surathkal and Sasihithlu have been notified. If the fishermen want to build houses, there is provision to permit the same. Currently, CRZ restrictions are in force up to 100 metres. As per new notification, this has been reduced to 50 metres. Some, villages where the salt content is less than 5 percent, may get concession from CRZ rules.”

Working conditions with respect to Dhakke have always been cluttered, As the vessels arrive and are unloaded there is barely any safety along the harbour but its just a habit as of now so works for us. Work is hectic but we need it for our daily bread.

We start selling fish from 6 o’clock in the morning and there are a lot of customers who get the fish cleaned and packed so we sit along the drains because that is the easiest way for us to directly throw the waste into the drains but apart from that, there is no particular market area as such that we use regularly.

Work situation in Dhakke, Bunder

We have been working here at the Dhakke since the past 10 years and before that we use to work in Bolar. The crowding here is comparatively more and the business is more but at the same time the market is not maintained by the government so we work in the sun everyday so that we have something to take home.

I have been fishing since I was a small child, my father was also a fisherman and our whole family practiced fishing back in Tamil Nadu. I moved here for better work and for my children’s education. I go on long fishing trips towards Gujarat and the north for about a week or 10 days and we return to Bunder to unload and refuel our boats. Services in Bunder are good but can definitely become better.

STRENGTH

OPPOURTUNITY

Prime location of the site closer to all the public amenities and in link with the main commercial hub of Mangalore.

Potential to define the fishermen public interphase through design solutions taking Sustainable measures into account.

Easy accessibility by Roadways and waterways while also creating opportunity for exporters to access Railway lines to reach out to the neighbouring States. Defined Harbour edge to accomodate over 150 vessels per day and essential site area to serve the necessary program. A previously built Harbour edge responding to the rising water levels faced by the coast of Mangalore. With the location of famous tile factory and other amenities around, the market could also act as an efficient tourist spot carrying forward the traditional fishing methods used by the Mogaveeras.

The site creates wide range of opportunities for a market to efficiently function due to its longitudinal nature of which majority of the edge is defined to be the harbour segregating it as zones for unloading from the vessels further transitioning into the smaller scale market spaces. The site has comfortable access routes from Roadways and Waterways hence making it a great hotspot to visit to and explore. To bring in public, locals and tourists who visit Mangalore to understand the architecture and culture of Mangalore, to also witness why fishing and seafood is of such a prime importance in the City.

WEAKNESS

THREAT

The site addresses hundreds of vessels and thousands of people approaching on a regular basis and is not designed efficiently to accommodate all the people, catch and vessels comfortably and conveniently.

The community of Mogaveeras has very minimal recognition around the other cities and hence the lack of awareness about the importance of seafood culture could minimise the extent of the business.

Vehicular movement on site is under no control which results in vehicular accessibility towards the harbour edge defining no boundaries of public, semipublic and restricted private zones. Inefficiency in the existing built structures such as Auction halls and vendor zones because of which all the market sales and Auctions happen in the open along the Harbour edge.

Extreme climatic conditions could be a threat to the widespread acres of land used for the market. Strong smell of seafood spread across the site. The existing Harbor built studying the current water levels could face threats from the rising sea gradually over the years.

Since the site is in Mangalore, it also faces harsh climatic conditions with monsoon, glaring heat from the sun and peak humidity and hence the lack of shading devices or any roofing structures on site exposes the people to these climatic conditions. A PRE-EXISTING STORY | 040

INTRODUCTION TO THE MOGAVEERAS Mogaveera is a community in the Karnataka state of India. They were traditional Naval officers who fought the Portuguese invasion of coastal Karnataka. They dominated maritime activities in coastal Karnataka. Some prominent Mogaveera leaders who worked for the social upliftment of coastal Karnataka include late congress leader Ananda Mendon, Malpe Madhwaraj,and former fisheries minister Mr.Pramod Madhwara. Mogaveera means a warrior who after the demolition of the kingdom continued to live on river belts and coastal belts and pursue their traditional occupation of fishing. Mogaveera people form a community who dominate fishing and marine activities in and around Mangalore. The Mogaveeras who have taken up fishing as their profession are called Marakalas. Some have also found occupation as peasants and artisans.

BACK IN HISTORY

‘Mogaveera’ is derived from the word mogera which means a warrior who after the demolition of the kingdom continued to live on river belts and coastal belts and pursue the traditional occupation of fishing. The Mogaveeras who have taken up fishing as their profession are called MARAKALAS and were notified as a backward class by the Government of Karnataka in the late 19th Centuary.

In the year 1981 based on the census population and household of the Mogaveeras were shown as 189 houses with a number of 699 people living in the fishing villages. The village was not provided with any means of transport for the fisherman and was 6 km away from the main town. Among all the castes and communities of the 19th and 20th century Mangalore the Mogaveeras and the Billavas were recognised and titled backward which restricted them to access of electricity, water, food supplies and other ammenities. Further in the year 1948 these castes grouped to form their own associations and organisations, the village was under Gram Panchayat and created political awareness among the fisherman community. Fishery related infrastructure did not exist in these fishing villages, facilities like ice plants, cold storage and boat building yards were available at the main town and along the coasts. A few households had curing yards for normal sundrying of fish.

PEOPLE AND COMMUNITY The study observed that most of the fishermen and the workers on site are the local Mogaveeras apart from which there are migrants from Tamilnadu, Andhra Pradesh and other neighbouring States. The men carry forward the fishing activities and other skilled labour on site and are the family heads of a household with about 5 to 7 people.

The women of the house work as coolie workers or sit along the market as fisherwomen to cut, clean and sell fish. All the fishermen families reside in the fishing villages on the Bengre Island and access the site via ferries regularly.

INFRASTRUCTURE The fishing culture in Mangalore is into action with vessels arriving at dock post midnight followed by unloading and segregation, sizing pricing process of the fresh catch.

put the the and

This catch is further Auctioned at early Dawn where all the exporters, wholesalers, restaurant owners, cattering owners assemble on site to bid on the best catch of the day. This process of auction is ideally supposed to be taking place in the designated Auction hall but what we notice on site is the inefficiency of the built structures that results in leaving them vacant or eventually for storage of crates. Post which we also notice that the vendor zones for the rest of the morning are also held in the open, because the fisherwomen are not provided with an official market space to work from.

Existing infrastructure shows that the kind of built spaces for the auction hall or market fail to function on a regular basis due to its lack of user sensitivity and response to the approaching density, because of which everyday Auctions are held out in the open along the harbor edge where all the exporters and wholesalers are gathered irrespective of harsh climatic conditions of Mangalore. On the other-hand fisherwomen who cut and clean and sell fish to the locals sit on ground next to open drains with or without a tensile structure for roofing questioning hygiene and living conditions in an around this market.

STAKE HOLDER ACTIVITY MAPPING A broader compilation of activity mapping and a study of all the stakeholders and user groups that approach the site establishing their movement pattern and functions. This helps to draw bridges that show how each user group interacts with the other. Further the study focuses on understanding the density of people with respect to every stake holder, the different types of vessels and the variety of catch approaching the site regularly. Considering all the fishing vessels, the catch, all categories of workers, the wholesalers, the locals and the tourist who approach the site on a regular basis the mind map plots the activity pattern of each of these stakeholders starting with: The fishing vessel that arrives at the dock to unload the catch and further proceeds towards refueling and sets out for the next sail. The catch that is unloaded on the harbour is segregated and sized and sent for sale, primarily to the Auction hall and further to the Local market where it is sold, packed and then exits the site. This entire process on site is carried forward by a range of workers and fishermen who practice fishing and run their business in the city of Mangalore. The different category of workers include the fishermen, the daily-wage coolies, fish cleaning and storage workers, the maintenance staff, officials from the department of fisheries, the skill labourers for net mending and boat repair and further extending it into the tourism maintenance staff.

When it comes to the locals approaching the Vendor zones and Markets and the wholesalers who come for the Auctions, the respective customers approach the parking spaces and move to the commercial zones from where they purchase the catch of the day, get it cleaned and packed and exit the site. This project also intends to add a tourism component for the market and harbor which would include spaces such as activity halls, viewing decks, vocational training centres and ferry rides leading to fishing trips to get hands-on experience on the traditional practice of fishing followed by the mogaveera community. Hence defining that the market including the Auction hall and the tourism component on site would be the revenue generating heads for the community and the department of fisheries. The study extends to understanding the density of the stakeholders that approach the site. The people including the workers, the locals, the wholesalers and the Tourist. The vessels that approach the site in the case of Kara fishing or Purseseiner boats, the deep sea trawlers or even Nada Dhoni. These include vessels that approach the site regularly after a few hours of fishing or saie in water for 3 to 15 days and reach back to site carrying up to 2 tons of fish per vessel on an average. The harbour is approached by about 150 such vessels regularly, these vessels carry freshly caught fish that is further segregated and priced according to its species and family. A portion of the catch is also sent for processing to make packaged product to send overseas, for sundrying, for storage to use during non fishing seasons and finally the fish waste collected is sent for composting.

A FISHERMAN’S CALENDER The market also addresses changes in the activity patterns over the span of a year establishing the fishing and the non-fishing seasons which also results in the use of different vessels bringing in different variety of catch, may it be in the case of deep-sea fishing, use of trawlers, purse-seiner boats, on shore fishing or even import and export of catch to other states and countries.

The fishing season begins with the Samudra Pooja towards the end of monsoon where the people of the Mogaveera community offer milk to the sea after which the vessels are set to sail. During the fishing season a wide variety of catch is brought to the dock and sold or stored and exported. The fishing season comes to an end in the month of June of the following year with the beginning of monsoon.

3XN’s design is a contemporary take on the market archetype; the large, semi-open space is populated by rows of vendor stalls. Maintaining this free and human-scaled atmosphere was a primary focus of the design. The undulating roof form preserves both the essence of this typology and creates a modern icon for the waterfront.

sustainable strategies combining rainwater greywater recycling, mechanical filtration

“Environmental and social sustainability are essential and inseparable parts of the design,” explains Kim Herforth Nielsen, founder of 3XN. “The roof, landscaped forms, open atmosphere, plantings and materials that characterize the experience of the design are examples of this union. Throughout the course of the new Market’s concept and design development; public amenity and environmental sustainability have formed the core of our decision-making processes.” Not just an authentic fish market, but an iconic destination for Australia “We place people at the centre of any architectural response, with an emphasis on place-making to foster a strong sense of community.”

La Lonja is an industrial building next to the Ría de Huelva-estuary. Due to its use for auctions, markets and resale of fish and seafood, it has precise and concrete functional characteristics, reflected in the numerous regional, national and European regulations. Its extreme proximity to the river and its use exposes the building to a high degree of humidity and corrosion, which demands the use of nonoxidising materials and materials of low degradation. As an anecdote, it must be known, that it is a building that is not swept, but that it is flushed with water directly, which implies the use of this type of materials.

The strong and aggressive use of the facades, in the loading and unloading of the fish, is solved by using rough-cut granite, a true absorbent of blows and scratches. The flat and horizontal roof of concrete slabs is designed as another facade, given its low height and its visibility from the adjoining higher buildings. The upper floor, allows the visitor to appreciate each and every one of the actions of the fish market. Making a tour and gazing through large glazed courtyards, one can see the entry of fish by boats or trucks, the auction of the products, the display of second sales, and the departure in refrigerated trucks to various destinations.

DERIVATION OF A CONEPT Design determinants show the key elements that are incorporated in the proposal with respect to the program including the livelihood and the tourism component, where the livelihood component consisted of the local market spaces, segregation areas, auction halls and other supporting facilities including the offices and the community spaces for the mogavira community. On the other hand where the tourism component encourages locals and tourists to encounter and experience the fishing practices carried forward on the site. The program was spatially defined by plotting 2 functional nodes, being the locals market and the wholesalers auction hall that would be bridged by establishing a journey for the tourist who experience the culture, heritage and practices of the Mogaveera community. Fig 056. Program diagram Source : Author

ESTABLISHING ZONES The two nodes are zoned on site with respect to the efficiency of the program and derived from the inferences drawn through the preliminary studies. The local’s market is zoned towards the public edge of the site where the locals and the pedestrians reach out to the market on a daily basis where as the Auction hall is pushed to the terminating end with its large span of spill out area reaching to the loading bays for export.

Fig 057. Zone development Source : Author

The tourism journey that cuts through these two nodes establishes walkways and view points that lets an individual experience the kind of expressions exchanged on the Harbor and in the market.

ARCHITECTURAL THESIS REPORT | 2022 | JASMINE JOEVITA DSILVA

ORIENTATION

Fig 058. Orientation of massing Source : Author

With respect to the massing, the built form was intended to be linear in accordance with the proportions of the site and parallel to the harbour edge to emphasize on the arrival of catch from the hundreds of vessels loading at the dock. The linearity of the mass further being broken by the defined tourism journey such that there is a visual and physical connection between both the land and water edges of the site. The built masses to have a treatment of stepped terraces that generate multiple view points that promote the interaction of one market space with the other.

All the functions and the spaces should be linked in a manner that the whole project feels like one even having the contrast with the nature of functions in it all to blend together. Finally having a minimalist design to get more Emphasis upon the functions and those functions used more efficiently to create a good effect on the user groups. Having a space that possesses the element of versatility and adaptability of different spaces brings out variations and flexibility in spaces making the user more engaged towards the project.

Generating a street market experience by creating a market with respect to the context and also in a contemporary Manner where the essence of the market also reflects in accordance with the design creating spaces which make people realise a sense for that place, a sense of ownership and attachment and the belongingness to the space as well. The creation of great amalgamating public spaces effectively with market spaces that enhance the environment and make people visit such places.

The two parallel curves one of which would be the livelihood of the fishermen’s community addressing the market design on site And the secondary curve being a replica of similar experiences for a tourist accommodated on the yetthar island. Firstly, a central Principal Axis was created on site which passes through parallel to the harbor edge connecting both the lateral ends in a straight line. This central axis would define the builT spaces along with the porosity that will be introduced as punctures around the functions as they are developed.

The axis establishes easy and efficient connections with both the lateral edges of the site and create the sense of focus which is more effective and functional creating more direct accessibility for the user. The access will also define the transition from one public space to the other directioning the flow of the market. Following to the process, to ease up all the functions the zones are segregated into two major parts that is the local’s market which includes the marketspaces, retail stores, ice plants and storage units and the Auction hall including the packaging unit, the auction spaces and the spill out zones with the loading bays. The daily functions are kept close to the main road which makes it easily accessible from outside making it convenient for the public. The public spaces are kept joining both the zones and in addition is kept introverted from the outside but equally active inside.

DESIGN PROPOSAL The proposal define a seamless translation between the market square and the public square. The edge of the public market will be in good connections that lead the the Tourists to experience all the other following spaces. 1) Providing vehicular access only to the rear end of the site giving opportunity to completely pedestrianize the harbor and market. 2)The walkway for the tourists bridging the major nodes that activates the porosity created between the nodes across the journey 3)Generating multiple viewpoints that acknowledge activities along the harbor edge and the market.

SITE OFFSETS

Fig 065. Site offsets Source : Author

The site edges and boundaries are analysed to define the offsets which recognise the public edge in closest proximity to the main accessible Road. A larger span of offset along the harbour where the vessels are parked and the rear end of the site being towards the fenced greenland to be for vehicular zones. The research done also noticed the shrinking of the size of the island with respect to the rising water levels occurred in the Northern and Southern direction which implied that the central drylands of the island were more adaptable.

SITE ACCESS: WATERWAYS

There is also a pre established ferry route connectiing the Yetthar island and the site which could be further used to extend the tourism component.

The site was further zoned primarily defining the vehicular access routes and parking spaces for the trucks and carriers.

The idea of concentrating vehicular access to the rear end of the site creates oppourtunity to pedestrianize the market and harbour experience.

Establishing two major nodes along the longitudinal edge of the site parallel to the harbour, with The local’s market - defining the public edge and The auction hall - being more privatized and secluded.

The overlap between the nodes is a tourist gateway such that the punchers in the design creates physical porosity defining view points and walk ways for the tourist.

NODES THROUGH THE JOURNEY

The line of transition through all these spaces defines the journey across the site while experiencing the local’s market, the harbour edge, the auction hall and the different vocational training units all the way leading to the island for the fishing trips and the tourist’s hands on experience. This curve defines the physical journey of an individual through the site.

The finalized zoning diagram with all the major functions is interconnected for the efficient functioning of spaces. At the centre you can see the collection and segregation areas on the ground, while the roof forms the Deck for the respective tourists to get an experience of the water edge along the banks of the Gurpura river.The market spaces selling fresh catch of the day are kept towards the northern edge of the axis even

close to the main entrance which makes them easier to access. The auction spaces are placed opposite to the locals market which is towards the southern edge, reason being that the locals do not intend to bid in the Aictions but it is precisely for the exporters and the wholesalers and is more probable to be occupied during early Dawn.

The diagram highlights the semi open potential public spaces and speaks of the temporary or tensile roofing membrane intending to tie the geometric walls of the design together.

Since both the typology of customers vary, the respective spaces are zoned apart from each other causing less congestion. The stepped down entrance Plaza that leads into the framed market space will provide the essence of a street market and help to regulate and incorporate half hazard Road encroachments. There is a seamless transition between the pedestrian zone and vehicular accessible areas with

respect to the loading bays and the spill out spaces for the customers. Apart from all these activities there are the facilities for the offices and the administrative units of the fisheries department along with the Souvenir stores, retail markets and multi purpose halls on the upper level. The spaces are interconnected with each other with the provision of bridges binding the whole idea of a journey together. A DESIGN DEVELOPMENT | 072

GROUND FLOOR PLANNING The plan for a vessel coming in to park at the harbor and unload the days catch all the fish in the crates would be unloaded along the harbor edge by the fisherman and collected in the central segregation area that is where all the fish would be sized, priced and segregated. There from which the catch is directed towards the local’s market and the auction hall. The local’s market, a semi enclosed space is where the locals gather to buy fish is planned with a series of colonnades, where the market is aligned along the columns such that the space in between each act as spill out for the public. The local’s market terminates into the stepped plaza which is framed by the built form such that the plaza defines the sense of entry to any user accessing the site. The plaza also acts as a community space for the Mogaveeras to carry forward their customs, festivals and everyday evening gatherings.

Towards the north eastern edge of the local’s market is the storage and refrigeration facility for the catch. As we move to the southern end of the segregation area, the Auction Hall is designed in such a way that it is easily accessible from the vehicular zone for loading and export and is designed in a stepped manner where every category of catch is displayed in the central spine and every bidder on the steps takes part in the auction simultaneously. The auction hall directly also opens out to the harbor edge from where the fish would be loaded into the central spine of the hall. This hall terminates into the packaging unit which accesses the loading bays from where the catch is carried and loaded into the vehicles. The site terminates into the vocational training center for net mending and other hands-on practices that support the fishing activities on site.

The built form framing the entrance to the Plaza from the local’s market is where the ice plant and the retail stores are located such that it is easily accessible to the harbor edge to refuel the vessels as they set out for the next sale.

The tourism journey that wraps around the market and the Auction Hall terminates back on the ground floor to the southern edge of the site from where tourist would be directed to ferry rides to reach to the Yetthar island for additional fishing experiences and to understand the traditional fishing practices carried in Mangalore.
