It is the reflection of cultural heritage , the economic progress and also identity of the people of a particular region. To bring out some fascinating stories from the world of Architecture across different corners of the globe ‘Worksphere’ presents ‘ArchiCast’. Aranya Slum settlements have grown significantly as a consequence of the inability of developing countries to keep up with the massive increase in urban populations during the latter half of the twentieth century. Various attempts have been made by a diverse range of professionals to find a viable urban and architectural housing solution to the slum crisis. One solution has been to relocate slum dwellers to new townships and demolish the slums where they have lived. Aranya Township in Indore is a well-known example of these new settlements, known for its architectural brilliance.
