Arguementative Question :

The communities next to the stores provide a variety of standard services in a variety of tiny, closely spaced businesses. Residents, auto-mobile drivers, and college students are among the clients of these services. Food services like dhabas and groceries are the most popular and draw in the most customers among these services.

With growing kitchen terraces in the city and demand for uban farming, the project asks how can the food cycle be localised and made available for this immediate neighbourhood and people at large ? How can the food as a vital good and resource is important in order to develop a spatially engaged network that necessiates to rethink the urban fabric?

How can the food cycle from its very core; that is growing, harvesting, composting, its retail be integrated in thinking spatially and in shaping the built form?
