The Thesis aims at providing effective and efficient solutions for space constraints of the city in Creating a model housing exploiting the higher FSI available in the transit corridors and providing solutions to improve the quality of life and open spaces in the places with a space constraint.

The approach explores the flexibility available in clever repetition of a module. This can be configured to suit individual requirements of space for individual families over time.
Instead of building outwards, like the approach found in the more traditional horizontal urbanisation, vertical urbanisation looks to build upwards instead. The idea is based on the fact that doing so allows you to build more within a smaller area of land.

The approach explores the gender perspective, the analysis of space hierarchies seeks to detect and raise the profile of situations of inequality, subordination or imbalance in the use of homes by men and women. The project attempts to establish relationships between the urban realm and the city, integrating various forms of hybrid living.

The project intends to challenge the nature of the elevated corridor by re-imagining a street vertically. The architectural design emerges as an interpretation of a street, extruded from ground and ascending vertically by including the elevated metro corridor into the social drama providing ephemeral solutions to the urban space constraints.
