New Delhi
Design and architecture projects exploring New Delhi's urban spaces, civic landmarks, and residential solutions.
New Delhi presents distinct design challenges as a megacity balancing historic preservation, climate resilience, and dense urban living. Projects in this topic examine how architecture responds to the city's existing infrastructure, environmental pressures, and social needs.
The community explores interventions ranging from civic reimagining of central spaces like Connaught Place to climate-adaptive urban strategies and residential designs that work within Delhi's constraints. Work includes adaptive reuse of landmarks, preservation of natural elements, and innovative housing solutions for multigenerational families in high-density areas.
