IaaCs work in Mumbai explored current conditions and dynamics of the territory. Changing coastal conditions, learning from slums as the largest housing type, critiquing the unjustified escalation of land value and the various actors that work within this mechanism were part of the study. Rapid growth in the population of cities and hurried development in second tier and third tier cities of India which ape their metropolitan contemporaries, were also part of the exploration.

¨My India¨ Exhibition presented by the IAAC MAA is merely a glimpse and gives it´s audience a bigger opportunity to witness the state of transition and complexity of urbanization . It has been crucial to understand the idea of self-sufficiency in the context of urban growth with poverty and congestion and rural potential. The application of new technology with indigenous/local techniques and materiality would be an opportunity to invent new planning strategies and programs.
