The Dilli Haat-Janakpuri project, designed by Archomn Consults and completed in 2014, encompasses a 160,000 sqm area with various amenities including an 800-capacity auditorium, a multipurpose exposition hall, and a large food court. The structure integrates bamboo and indigenous materials while featuring accessibility elements for disabled individuals. Despite facing challenges such as unauthorized stalls and an inefficient drinking water location, the space accommodates significant foot traffic, making it a vibrant public venue.

14. Efficiency :
 Evolved from an open left over space with storm water drain, garbage dump
and a line of some vegetation, Dilli Haat has emerged as an active and engaging
public space with an over growing demand and high footfalls.
 The chosen site of 100 x 300m comprised of a 23m wide storm water drain
(‘Nallah’ in local language), a garbage dumping ground often used for outdoor
defecation and sanitation purposes.
 Along the site were number of trees lining both sides of the drain, giving it a
linear flowing character but with an identity of a left over space.
 It witnesses up to 7000 people on weekends or holidays and about 3000 on
weekdays.

15. Inference :
 Green space is provided at relevant spaces.
 Consist of many negative spaces which are a place of dust collection.
 Unauthorised stalls have been setup.
 Location of drinking water is not appropriate i.e. near to the washrooms.
 Number of ramps to reach different level are less are at far distances.
 Not all service entries are used.
 The placement system of stalls is convincing.
 Temporary stalls structure can be improvised.
 Every kitchen has its own gas and water supply.
