The Gudimalkapur Vegetable and Flower Market in Hyderabad, originally relocated from Moazzam Jahi Market in 2009, faces challenges due to market growth and urban traffic, diminishing its role as a public space. With historical significance as part of the route connecting Golkonda to Charminar, it houses ignored landmarks like Jham Singh Dharmshala and a rediscovered stepwell.
This redevelopment project aims to rejuvenate the market, balancing its historic essence with the need for a new identity. The thesis explores how to transform the market into a vibrant, inclusive public space, enriching the urban fabric while preserving its cultural character and enhancing its functionality for the local community and visitors alike.

Line of Goodwill is a mixed-use project designed for 8,000 inhabitants, organised into co-housing clusters. It is envisioned in the context of Auroville’s planned city by its chief architect Roger Anger, in the context of a car-free mobility.
With no private ownership of land, the project offers different experimental sharing structures. It rethinks the urban tower, where the human scale is otherwise lost after eight storeys.
The gently descending cluster of buildings stretches over 800 m, resembling a hill that starts at the entrance to the city and culminates at the edge of the lake at the City Centre. Sector A4 is one of the few sectors towards the Matrimandir in this 800 m long design.

The Traverse School of Architecture converts a 150-year-old factory located in Hyderabad to a unique identity. The primary strategy was not to demolish the existing Mangalore tiled roof, but to add a layer of contrast to it. Hyderabad being a city with a blend of new and old structures, it will be a major influence for the students of Architecture.
The same theme is brought into the school’s design for the users to experience the transition from the old to new. The large openings and the main staircase create a strong connection with the outside world. This way visual links promote interaction and fundamentally confuse interior and exterior boundaries. Being neither inside nor outside, a permanent state of transition is cultivated.

As a transit hub is the spine of any city, the design not only affects the users but also affects the bus drivers, conductors and bus terminal staff in a psychological way. The conceptual approach was to make sure the bus drivers get a break from the concrete jungle and experience the greens.
In keeping with the theme of experience driven design for the bus staff, the proposal is sustainably designed– including green roofs and plenty of natural light. The building is intentionally designed with brick cladding, for the bus staff to get a relief from the concrete world. The volume is developed in a single direction, to maximize the north light coming inside the terminal. This also establishes a direct relationship with the landscape, terminal staff, users and especially the bus drivers and conductors.
