The whole process went with noting down points or observations and making on the spot sketches of the locations. Then finding keywords from each locations, matching them to make major points or 'faces'. and finally merging two or more of these points to come down to final 6 'Faces of Delhi'.

Meeting the ergonomic needs of
the user for a better foot health
Inspired from Indian traditional footwears like Mojdis and Kolhapuris while also making them time and time and context appropriate.
Working Seed Dispersion Mechanisms :
A mechanism, involving spring and gears that automatically due to the wearer's movements (Walking) gets winded-up. After a certain amount of steps the mechanism unwinds instantly and shoots a seed. This leads the footwear to shoot seeds automatically at regular intervals.
Gati (Trekking shoe) Context:
The product is currently contextualized for Maharashtra, India. Chosen for its rich biodiversity, varied terrain, and strong culture of outdoor activity. Its ecological versatility makes it an ideal testbed for wearable interventions. The selected native seeds are suited to the region and aim to support natural regeneration, especially along popular trekking routes where consistent footfall can be transformed into a vehicle for ecological impact.
Current state of the project :
A '1:2' scaled down 3d printed model was made of the design and was exhibited in the Royal College of Art, London's Term 2 Exhibition.
Currently the project is still in the further refinement process.
