Re-Designing Spaces Under Elevated Roads
Abstract: The rapid expansion of elevated road networks in Indian metropolitan cities has significantly improved urban mobility while simultaneously creating extensive underutilized spaces beneath flyovers and elevated corridors. In Mumbai, these under-elevated spaces frequently remain neglected, poorly illuminated, and socially disconnected, often becoming locations for debris dumping, illegal parking, informal encroachments, and unsafe activities. Despite several beautification initiatives, including landscaped gardens, public art installations, and pedestrian walkways, many interventions fail to …

Sustaining Artisan Livelihoods through Community Cooperative Housing: A Socio-Spatial Study of the Kumbhar Community in Pune, India
Abstract: This research addresses the problem in contemporary community housing. Housing is delivered as a physical product, while the social, economic, and cultural systems that sustain community life are largely ignored. In the resettlement of the Kumbhar (potter) Community in Pune, equal land was allotted without cohesive architectural planning, which has led to fragmented spatial organisation, underutilised work areas, conflicts over resources, unclear boundaries, and a decline in economic efficiency due …
