Alembic Chemical Works, founded in 1907, evolved into Alembic Pharmaceuticals as the city of Vadodara expanded. The redevelopment of its original industrial site into the Alembic Art District preserves the heritage while creating vibrant spaces for art, culture, and community engagement. The design integrates interconnected courtyards, accommodating diverse activities while addressing challenges like grading and water conservation.

Key achievements include adaptive reuse of industrial structures, green infrastructure, cultural expression, and economic diversification, making the Alembic Art District a cornerstone of Vadodara’s cultural landscape.
