Namma Parking

Can parking lots be a site for arts and culture? A new magazine featuring two public parking spaces in Bengaluru explores the idea. Parking Magazine’ is an annual publication dedicated to urban parking.

The first edition is titled ‘Namma Parking’  it focuses on BBMP parking lots in K R Market, and J C Road. This is a project by 23-year old Radha R H, based in Bengaluru. She has studied public space design and works as a product designer.

Fewer than 100 have sold since the inaugural edition dropped in December. But the feedback from buyers architects, urban planners and long-time Bengalureans has been better as they wanted to know she could generate so much content on parking, an unlikely subject.
