Taking a very challenging yet excitingly interesting, Dharavi, for this design project, it is easy yet difficult at the same time. Easy in a way that numerous issues are available and obvious to deal with, such so pollution, tight living space, poor hygiene etc.
My project deals with spatialization of the roof top layer, which is in fact currently being used for various functions by the dwellers. The structure, provided their 5x5m grid, anticipate the dwellers below to construct and add their own components to serve their needs. These personal add-ons fill in the middle gap (roof layer before) as a multi-functional mass, on the other hand, in a way benefit the whole community by knitting a new free public ground on top.
