Lucknow, often known as the city of Nawabs, is known for its sweet-mannered inhabitants and royal background. The Nawabi <\/em>city welcomes tourists all year round. Awadh Shilpgram, a sort of urban bazaar, by Archohm<\/a> can be described as the confluence of tourists and residents in the city. Rooted in tradition and inspired by the people\u2019s needs, the project is a massive, spiral building that does a whole lot to engage its users. A blend of the then and now, Awadh Shilpgram has been proudly standing in Lucknow since 2016.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Arches dominate Awadh Shlipagram; the arches along with the jaalis distracts one from the sheer volume of the building. Arches and jaalis are the two elements that have been a part of Lucknavi<\/em> architecture since the very beginning. In this case, tribute has been specifically paid to the Rumi Darwaza and Imambaras of Mughal architecture. \u2018Awadh\u2019 in Awadh Shilpgram refers to how Lucknow and the surrounding regions were addressed during that period. Grounded in history, the users are engulfed in a humble space as opposed to being overwhelmed by the scale. Interventions employed to achieve abundant light and natural cross-ventilation are part of the factors that render the space welcoming. Two hundred shops are housed in the space for local craftsmen and artisans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to shopping, users can engage in other activities in specifically designed spaces like craft courts for workshops, an amphitheater for casual interactions, a food court that serves different cuisines from different parts of the country, an auditorium, and a dormitory hostel. All in all, the complex is an integrated building that functions as a campus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
