First of all, I want to give information about Tokay city. Tokay is famous wine-district of Hungary famous all over the world.

    Mumbai is still in its intermediate stage of rapid urbanization, and at this vulnerable stage, it is slowly falling prey to practices that blindly ape the West. My interest in the conflict between “change versus identity”, in an urban context, gained renewed impetus during my research and design for the adaptive reuse of an old and defunct Parsi Zoroastrian Sanatorium. This independent proposal to the F.D.Petit Trust, the owners, sensitized me to craft, context, historic form and materiality. The Parsi Zoroastrian diaspora is probably one which has most successfully reinvented its sense of place and identity across various parts of the world, after migrating from Persia to avoid religious persecution. As a member of this rapidly declining Parsi Zoroastrian diaspora, I was keen to re-acquaint myself with my community’s substantial contributions in Mumbai during the British Colonial era, and its influence, which is intricately woven into Mumbai’s Heritage architecture. Mumbai’s culturally diverse heritage; be it Parsi, Christian, Konkani, Gujarati or Marathi; is symbolic of its identity, which rapid urbanization has distanced us from. To this I ask myself, is the only solution to this looming identity crisis a mere nostalgic reform, or can a contemporary design approach emancipate Mumbai from its state of architectural…

    Every nation appreciates and protects its historic sites as they know that they are the legacy from their ancestors. So do we. There are a lot of advantages of it. Buildings and spaces with history have character. They bring a certain charm to a neighbourhood that new buildings don’t. Many old buildings created in the 19th century are beautiful. Historical establishments serve as reminders of the past. Understanding the past, having reminders of the past even just in architecture will allow people to understand where they are and where they are headed. When people understand what the community has gone through and have visual reminders of their past then they can feel more connected to a place. The historical buildings can allow people to understand what happened in the past and how things could possibly play out in the future.
