Interpretation in an Urban situation- Rethinking the space under flyovers

The task was to study an urban environment through detailed documentation and analysis. At the end of the study process, I was supposed to address one issue that concerned me the most, I took up the under deck space of the flyover and addressed its issues. The idea was carried forward to develop a design that caters to the urban space. The area, in particular, was the Jamalpur market, it is a busy hub with various market activities that happens 24x7, hence the complexity of judicial space usage.
