contemporary design of NID


- Awarness about presence of 12 Gates in Old Ahmedabad City and to promote for tourist visits.- Signage regarding direction, places, distance, road safety, school, etc.- Signage regarding bus route no. and destination both in hindi and gujarati language in bus stand and buses.- More of hoardings and kiosk regarding social issues like cleaniness, education, road safety should be found in buses, bust stand, road side, public garden, etc. where maximum crowds are available.- Map for Old Ahmedabad should be made more simpler to be able to track it having some particular icon where tourist or any newcomer will be able to track it (Naviga-tion map)- Complex calendar can be made more simpler.- Signage regarding maintanance, direction in Public Garden should be shown.- Signage in Railway station should be made in more simpler way and proper navigation map should be made.- In Sanskar kendra Museum, there should be proper arrangement of showcase of ahmedabad city, which can make visitor’s to visit again.- Contemporary Design of NID, should be redone to get latest update and get it alive and happening.

Solution, I suggest :


Awareness about presence of 12 gates in Old Ahmedabad City and

to promote for tourist visits

These darwaja’s are symbolic of

Architecture and Heritage of

Ahmedabad....

To grab the attention of government authority for maintainance of historical importance and to attract the tourists.

We clicked photographs of darwajas keeping in mind appropriatness of frame for inclusion in posters.Then I took print out of images of darwajas and traced the images of darwajas in various forms using dry pastel, broken lines, complete line, etc.Then I decided to use broken lines to depict the entire frame of darwaja as I wanted general public to get the feel of completing the frame.Subsequently, I scanned the rough artwork and converted into vector image.I1 adopted map of Old Ahmedadbad City from Gujarat tourist guide book depicting 12 darwajas around Bhadra Fort.I selected three frames of darwaja from different angles depicting details, structure, carvings, etc.
