Children’s museums are places where children learn through play and
exploration in environments designed just for them. Reflecting their diverse
communities, children’s museums create playful, interactive learning
experiences. In an increasingly complex world, children’s museums
provide a place where all kids can learn through play with the caring
adults in their lives.
The aim of my project is to design a children’s museum on the Sabarmati
riverfront that encourages children to explore, inspire and also promote
curiosity. It will hold various themes based exhibits in the galleries and also
include many informal playing and sitting spaces which would be acting
as interaction zones.
The project is a part of the Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation
(SRFDCL), which is a multidimensional on-going project with an aim to of
environmental improvement, social upliftment, and urban rejuvenation.
This development reclaims the banks of river Sabarmati, making the entire
stretch of river publicly accessible. The project provides more than ten
kilometres of uninterrupted pedestrian promenade on each bank and
ghats for direct access to the water. |
