URBAN GRAINThe arrangement of buildings, streets and open spaces defines the urban grain and character of a city. By showing the buildings in black and the open spaces in white, the figure-ground images of distinct urban neighbourhoods in each part of Kolkata reveal different spatial characteristics and social dynamics at the street level. All plans are at the same scale of 1:10 000.
