The Urban Langar

Urban Langar is a civic food space situated within Newark Market Square that reinterprets the Sikh principles of Langar, Seva, and Pangat through architecture. The project explores how food can operate as social infrastructure, using collective cooking, dining, and learning to dismantle social hierarchies and encourage dignity, inclusivity, and shared participation. The building combines a sunken dining space, communal kitchen, greenhouse, and market infrastructure to create a continuous cycle of growing, preparing, sharing, and reflecting.
