About Discussions Projects21 Journals20 Publications1

WRI Mumbai focuses on design interventions across Mumbai's urban landscape, from waterfront redevelopment and industrial site reclamation to vertical housing and public space reimagining. The work explores how architecture and urban design can respond to the city's specific geographical, social, and infrastructural conditions.

The community examines local-centered design approaches, sustainable high-rise solutions, heritage site transformation, and the activation of Mumbai's working waterfronts as public amenities. Projects range from neighborhood-scale interventions to city-wide strategies for managing density and revitalizing post-industrial areas.

The Big Green Foot

The thought about stepping my foot into this city crammed with people and vehicles torments me every day and night bringing chills through my spine. One step towards a better place to live in is what i'm asking for; One step for a place with fresh air to breathe in; One big green step for a better city to live in. I call this step as my big green foot!

Vertical University in an Urban Scenario

The need of the hour has introduced verticality as an exclusive part of the solution of the crisis of land shortage. Verticality has been seen in various forms of structures, but for educational buildings, a conventional form of structures are applied.
