Ahmedabad, Gujarat 2005 - 2006
A fabric shop for handmade textiles needed a facelift, so this project rebuilt the existing building in a margin to make a clean space for saree and fabric display. Wood tables slide to make space for a stair down to storage, and cast brass dots the walls for saree display, adjoins wood bases as seats, and rests embedded in the table as measure tape. Stone shelves add thickness to the space of the wall and store folded stacks of fabric, ready to be seen.
