Competition Brief:
The aim of the competition is to develop a place making project that will act as a center for change and empowerment in the heart of dharavi.
Narrative:
Candies bring joy to our lives . With it’s Sweet and tangy filling, they make sure to put a smile on our faces. Dharavi candy proposes to induce a joyous and vibrantly interactive culture that aims at erasing the boundaries that do exist beyond this junction -pragmatically and inclusively.

The structure is composed of flexible zones with materials like steel, tensile fabrics and corrugated aluminium panels. Adequate rain water harvesting and photovoltaic glass panels make the structure self-sustaining and more efficient.

Like a candy, this structure gets unwrapped in layers. The flavours are felt more when one finds their own niche. The gap between these layers is narrowed as with time every process of the life of this place involves the residents of Dharavi merging and working together.
