Yogeshwar Nagar is

situated in the

south of Ahmeda-

bad,Gujarat, India.

The landownership

of this land is not

particularly cle-

ar, but the land

certainly does not

belong to the inhab-

itants of the site.

The people make in-

tensive use of their

streets. This mayleads to overcrowded

streets. Therefore

the implementation

of roofterraces can

be seen as an oppor-

tunity. By turning

the roof terrace

into a public spa-

ce, the intensity ofthe streets could be

lowered, and the use

of space could be-

come more balanced.

Additionally tur-

ning roof terraces

into public spaces

seems to be a way of

creating more spa-ce without sealing

further ground.

-If there is no spa-

ce on the ground,

there is always some

Details/System

The watersystem that

is being implemented

works as follows:

rainwater is collec-

ted in wells. These

are connected th-

rough an underground

drainage system. and

transport the waterto the agricultural

land. There it will

be used to irrigate

bamboo and poplars.

Finally the waste-

water of the urban

site will be used as

well resulting in a

closed watersystem

that provides clean

and usable water for

the neighbourhood.

In order to gain as

much open space as

possible, we plan to

use a novel appro-

ach including bamboo

structure and push

the houses together

back to back. Some

streets will disap-

pear and the others

can be widened.

Creating unique

sites the streets

could be characte-

rised by giving them

diverse topics.

Role of women

Women play an im-

portant role in

society and the

development of new

quarters. They stay

in the settlement

and take care of the

children and the

house.

Since we are going

to improve their

skills with a work-

shopsystem they can

be selfsucient and

sustainable.

They can provide

their products by

themselves.

A good connection to

the city supports

this system.

Financial aspects

Micronance Creditworthiness

The nancial system is

based upon the theo-

ry of Muhammad Yun-

us. In his ideas, he

proposes the use of

microcredits. He pro-vides credit to peop-

le who are collabora-

ting in a small group

of about ve persons.

Each person still has

a personal responsi-

bility, but at the

same time, each person

has to make sure thatthe others are taking

their responsibili-

ty. This type of so-

cial control results

in a very eicient and

trustworthy system.

Sometimes, a one oor

high space is leftopen within the struc-

ture for the existing

house to grow. Above

this space, an ameni-

ty could be built. It

would be part of the

new public space that

is being proposed for

the neighbourhood.

Our variation on this

theory is to dividethe site into certain

larger groups, accor-

ding to the number

of streets. Within

the streets, house-

holds are also being

clustered. First one

ve-house-cluster will

be formed. Then thesecond one and so on.

These smaller groups

have to make sure that

each household takes

their responsibility.

On a larger scale all

the these clusters in

one street have a res-

ponsibility accordingto each other. This

results in a pyramid

like shape of respon-

sibility.
