Journal of the Indian institute of architects :(JIIA)Summary: The Ambico Ice factory is located in Ballard estate, in the heart
of Mumbai’s heritage precinct. Over the years, as the ice-
making operations have been shifted out to Navi Mumbai, parts
of this industrial space have been leased and converted into a
restaurant, a gallery, and a play-house for children.
Effectively, its repurposing has already begun.
As the last of the spaces is now being vacated, we have
the opportunity to examine this space holistically, and to
contemplate new synergies.
We imagine this as a space that merges various cultural
and design activities, as a vibrant mixed use insert into a
predominantly commercial environment
