What Is A Market?
A "Non-Market"
Introduction
Our site was the stretch from Gora-Gandhi Hotel to Moksh Plaza being a southern tip. I was looking at the stretch from Goyal Shopping Center to the de-functional Diamond Theatre, which included Goyal, 22 extension shops, Diamond Theatre and the remenant of the Borivali Aamwadi, a cluster of dense vegetation which was part of a larger forest, consolidated over the years.

How can a traditional market be redesigned to break the hard edge and induce free/open typology shops, thus, making it seamlessly porous and accessible, also, catering to the de-functional space that breaks the boundaries between, creating a transitional space from the market to the living?
