# 0168 : after the floods

mumbai, india. august 2005
@ home, juhu

after the july 2005 floods that created havoc across the city. the house, being on the ground floor, had a couple of feet of water; overturned beds, a floating fridge and what not. once the waters receded and the muck was removed, began the rather painful process of getting everything back in order

# 7493 : girgaon textures


mumbai, maharashtra, india. july 2007
krvia : 4th yr : sem vii : ad site : girgaon

at girgaon, one of the sites of the 4th yr - semester vii - architectural design project. some textures are a part of the construction - paint, plaster, brick. others are added by the inhabitants - glass windows, metal grills, pvc pipes, wooden railings, tiled roofs, aluminium chajjas. and yet others are natural - moss, creepres and plants - that grow as parasites clinging on to the structure for support and thriving on mositure and nutrition left back by the inhabitants.
