THE CONTEMPORARY RESIDENCE

The Residence Project represents my vision for the future of residential architecture, where sustainable living, innovative design solutions, and a deep understanding of the occupants’ needs converge. My design philosophy revolves around the belief that a home is more than just a physical structure; it is a sanctuary that reflects the lifestyle and aspirations of its occupants. I prioritize functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability in every aspect of my designs, ensuring that each residence is tailored to the specific needs of its inhabitants while embracing the beauty of its surroundings.

The design of the project started in a rectangular form as it is most functional and it allows a effective space planning. The first floor is tilted to have better daylighting and ventilation. Adding vertical and horizontal louvers provide shading. The first floor is conncted using spiral staircase inside the building.

It typically incorporates modern elements and embraces a minimalist approach while prioritizing functionality.The exterior features a sleek and minimalist facade with clean lines, large windows, and a mix of materials such as glass, concrete, and metal accents. The design emphasizes open and fluid spaces, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor areas.

Upon entering the house, you are greeted by a spacious foyer that leads to an open-concept living area. The interior design is characterized by an abundance of natural light, neutral color palettes, and a minimalist approach to furniture and decor. The living room seamlessly connects to the dining area and kitchen, creating a versatile space for entertaining guests and family gatherings.

Moving upstairs, you’ll find the private areas of the house. The master bedroom suite exudes a sense of tranquility and relaxation with its spacious layout, a well-designed walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom that boasts modern fixtures and luxurious finishes. Additional bedrooms are designed with comfort and functionality in mind, providing ample space for relaxation and study.

To enhance the connection with the outdoors, the house includes a well-designed outdoor living space. It features a comfortable seating area, a barbecue grill, and a meticulously landscaped garden, providing an ideal setting for outdoor activities and relaxation. Contemporary house design showcases the principles of modern architecture and aesthetic appeal.

GENERAL HOSPITAL DESIGN

An elevated public footpath, inspired by New York’s green High Line, leads to the hospital. Pedestrians can choose to walk up over and through the hospital complex. The footpath makes the building open, democratic and accessible to everyone. For example, you can follow the path onto the roof and enjoy the view without disturbing the wards.Their is a ramp which connects athe first floor directly without entering into the hospital for pedestrians. It is associated with vegetations along the sides of ramps. This is designed to avoid congestion of out-patient users and emergency users.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN

Therapy buildings with courtyards and landscaped gardens provide a carpet of greenery around the ward buildings, which look out over accessible green roofs. The hospital architecture blends human and natural elements consistently, indoors and outside, to create a healing architecture with focus squarely on the patient. The architectural design expression is therefore also based on a soft, organic and humanistic idiom.The hospital is designed horizontally due to height restrictions and for ease of access of patients and visitors.

SOUTH ELEVATION

The architecture of the hospital thus supports the healing of each patient.Surrounded by nature Nature and daylight will be fully integrated into the building and reflect the healing atmosphere of the scenic surroundings. To support the healing of each patient the wards at the top levels will have a view over the surrounding landscape or roof garden in the centre of the hospital. From the roof garden, the hospital is perceived as a two-storey complex. The hospital’s compact layout ensures maximum functionality for the staff, and short working distances.

THE FRAMES OF THREAD, CPK TROPHY,NASA.

A thread which extends to A frame which focuses the Gandhi statue is the baic idea for the the Design. The design has three frames which is been provided to showcase the three different ruling periods of the foreigners who devoted the architecture features of the puducherry. The frames are placed above the sand pit which is raised 0.45 m above the ground level. Each frame size is having 0.4m x 0.4m. The thread provides the seating area for the pedestrians crossing the Thidal. The interaction place should be used for all ages of people. So only the sand pit is provide for the children. Edges were Avoided for the safety of People. Vibrant french yellow was chosen For the frames.

Puducherry also known as Pondicherry, is a union territory of India. It was formed out of four territories of former French India, namely Pondicherry (Pondicherry: now Puducherry), Karikal (Karaikal), Mahe and Yanaon (Yanam), excluding Chandannagar. It is named after the largest district, Puducherry Historically known as Pondicherry, the territory changed its official name to Puducherry on 20 September 2006 . The uninion Territory of Puducherry lies in the southern part of the Indian Peninsula. The areas of Puducherry district and Karaikal district are bound by the state of Tamil Nadu, while Yanam district and Mahé district are enclosed by the states of Andhra Pradesh and Kerala respectively.

The site is located in Gandhi Thidal. Thidal means a gathering place for people. Gandhi thidal is named after the installation of Gandhi statue in the shore line. This place played a vital role in French port trades as well as in Indian independence. This placed is used to gather for all the important metings related to the Indian independence. The present Gandhi thidal is used by Puducherry Government for various events. The chosen site has various function. It connects the Bharathi park and Gandhi statue. This is the only Open space in the entire shore line stretch.

MAJOR ISSUES

The site itself is a interaction place at early installation. Eventhough it is the main interactive place , its not attracting much of the people. Then it is illegally used for parking eventhought it is punishable activity. The pedestrains dont have enough seating or the seating is not maintained properly.

DESIGN

The design has three frames which is been provided to showcase the three different ruling periods of the foreigners who devoted the architecture features of the puducherry. The frames are placed above the sand pit which is raised 0.45 m above the ground level. Each frame size is having 0.4m x 0.4m. The thread provides the seating area for the pedestrians crossing the Thidal. Edges were Avoided for the safety of People. Vibrant french yellow was chosen for the frames.

INTRODUCTION

As of now the population of india is 1.35 billion. Among 90% of the public transport covered by buses. Buses are an important tranport in india. Indian buses carrying roughly 70 million people per day. Buses are the most and cheapest mode of transport in which daily workers, school students, merchants, used to travel. Panicness is the word comes to the mind when we think of indian bus stands. We don’t see panicness in airport because the users are maximum well educated. In the case of indian bus terminals the users are uneducated which causes over crowding to get on the bus. In order to control them in this pandemic situation,the existing bus terminal is redesigned fully by the installation of new structures ,without affecting the existing structure. The panicness is solved by giving waiting area according to the destinations. In the waiting area itself the people should get thier tickets from the conducter in order to avoid the over crowding due to panicness and also guiding the uneducated people to their destinations.

THE SITE

The site is located in Sirkali, nagapattinam district, Tamilnadu. It is a tier 2 bus terminal which has the population around 53,000. Sirkazhi bus terminal is one of the top bus depot in Sirkali which is located in the center of the town. It covers upto a radius of 1 km of sirkazhi town.

DESIGN IMPACTS

The existing terminal design is customiszed for the pandemic situation without disturb- ing the existing master design.The way of exit for passengers and the restaurant are with toilets exist in the design of arrival space.There are spaces for Eight buses can be parked in the arrival space.

Steel roofing fixed on the ht of 8m

Light weight wall about in the ht of 4m.

The parking bay in the existing structure is replaced by waiting area and seperate parking space is given for bus.

A light weight wall structure is add- ed to the existing structure in order to barricade the visual connectivity between the waiting area and the pick up area and high roof structure is added to promote stack effect.
