Food, Architecture and People - An Experiential Food Hub

Published on Aug 27, 2021

It has been fascinating, how food and architecture have always connected people and encouraged social interactions and activities. However, in this modern and urban times, there is seen a rise in nuclear families, an increase in women working force, and moving away of children for studies and jobs, leading to being exhausted and strained with work. This major shift to urban lifestyle is starting to contribute to lack of social connections, having leisure times and relaxed dining experiences. It is getting difficult for an individual to pause and enjoy the surroundings. Both the disciplinaries having similar nature and qualities of different parameters encouraged me to explore these synonymous projections and new perspectives, engaging the public and providing a sense of place. The thesis re-imagines the dining experiences at different scales to give people a space to socialize, interact and relax from their busy schedule.
