Exploring various ciƟes made him believe that ciƟes cannot be understood as a single homogeneous enƟty. Divyakant believes that design is a process of combining ideas and opinions shared on one table through discussion, experience, observaƟons, sketching, etc. With an eye for detail and an interest in conceptualizing design projects, he brings a unique direcƟon to the urban design project. His urban design thesis at SPA, New Delhi talks about the Influence of Mass transit in the context of Urban Villages where he found out that urban villages should have a comprehensive approach to urban design and planning that balances the preservaƟon of cultural heritage with the need for sustainable development.
