The process of designing, which involves intricate and imaginative assembly like solving a puzzle, and the ultimate integration of these parts into a functional entity is something that I take pleasure in.

The redevelopment of Gudimalkapur Market aims to rejuvenate it as a vibrant public space, blending its historic significance with a modern identity, enhancing both its cultural heritage and functionality for the community and visitors.
SECTOR A4, Line of Goodwill is a mixed-use project designed for Auroville inhabitants, organised into co-housing clusters. It is envisioned in the context of Auroville’s planned city, in the context of a car-free mobility.
The Traverse School of Architecture ia an adaptive reuse architecture project which converts a 150-year-old factory located in Hyderabad to a unique identity.
The kiosks are a part of the Chharodi lake’s redevelopment project managed by Banduksmith Studio, for which I was fortunate to be involved in the conceptual design process and designing the lakefront.
Comparative analysis of the urban morphology of Madrid and Hyderabad, two cities of equal areas. The analysis is based on the building types, road networks, public spaces, density, transportation network.

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.

Chharodi lake sits at the urban periphery, poised for rapid urbanisation. Unconnected to urban systems yet surrounded by piecemeal development, it caught untreated sewage and supported rural animal systems simultaneously. The revival strategies for the lake involved careful assessment of multiple factors like ownerships, encroachments and edge conditions in order to define the scope of development.
The proposal defines a new lake edge while retaining the natural slopes for surface water run off, retains all natural species of plants that form a wetland shoreline offset around it for natural filtration. This activated edge is then further developed to draw people in with various amenities of public life: gardens, café, toilets, and a stepped access into the lake.

The study has revealed that the urban morphology of Madrid and Hyderabad is shaped by a variety of factors, such as their respective historical, cultural, and economic contexts. Madrid, as the capital city of Spain, has a more formal street network and a higher density of buildings, while Hyderabad has a more irregular street grid and a greater emphasis on public spaces.
The transportation systems in each city also reflected their different urban morphologies, with Madrid relying more heavily on a metro system and Hyderabad on buses and other forms of public transport. Overall, the study provided important insights into the unique characteristics of each city, and the factors that have shaped their development.

The proportion of the builtup area in Hyderabad is really high and the free space distribution is completely unbalanced. Further, the built area occupies more than half the space. Most of the free space is not dedicated to pedestrians, but to traffic.
The road network is composed of an orthogonal grid system where ways are prioritized. The high proportion of roads is due to the greater use of cars and particlarly motorcycles. However, roads were created to the detriment of
