The project is located in Chakala, Andheri East, Mumbai. The first observation was of a Gurudwara where it was observed that before pandemic, the practice of ‘langar’ used to be conducted on the ground floor of the gurudwara on every Sunday. Due to the pandemic, the activity of langar was shifted on the first floor of the gurudwara reducing its public awareness. The second observation was of a BCM office getting converted into a vaccination center.Using these two observations, the Program was to convert the Gurudwara into a community 'seva’ facility by co-existing langar and vaccination center since both of the practices are public activities.

The syntax derived from present building of the Gurudwara through the observed and revised practices was of the street blending with the Plinth of the Gurudwara creating publicness and the street coming in through the staircase to the slab of the first floor. The elemental syntax derived from this was of the movement elements i.e. Plane, Staircase, Ramp, etc. which contributes to publicness. Using the syntax, a new building of the Gurudwara has been designed which hosts the programs and tries to create publicness in it.

The ground floor of the new building would host langar and the first floor would host the vaccination center. The second and the third floor of the Gurudwara would have the prayer hall and the terrace respectively. The building has been designed using different sizes of plane as required by different activities and by using steps and ramps. It also has curtain walls and glass dowers at the entrance side of the Gurudwara since transparency also contributes to publicness. The stairs has also been brought closer to the entrance connecting all the above floors directly to the street i.e. public.

Post- pandemic the space given for langar on the ground floor would be used for conducting the practice of ‘Seva’ and also for other functions and the rest of the open space would be used for langar. The rooms created on the first floor would host classes of Singing, Instruments, Yoga/Acupressure, Gurmukhi and it would also host a Public Library.
