The memories that one develops in the early stages of childhood are the most important and continue to influence you throughout life subconsciously.

Childhood cannot be studied in isolation from society as a wholeperspective of children in their own localities focus on the specificity of children’s own diverse urban experience. Children have lost visibility in public as they are confined within a variety of forms of childhood, ‘family’, ‘school’, ‘kindergarten’, ‘classes’ ,‘tuitions’ and ‘malls’. In order for the child to prefer that specific place to others, the place has the responsibility to satisfy those needs, to create a fit between action and the environmental features[1] Children are not being allowed to explore their imagination fully, under vigilant eyes of adults.

People and environments are inter dependent. There need to be opportunities for supporting child development in the physical environment, children need to be given more importance in managing urban change. Giving opportunities to children to develop your own identities. The idea of play for children has changed overtime with rapid urbanization. If children can pick up a sense of their social history in their everyday surroundings, their curiosity will be motivated to find out more.

And will be motivated to learn, this learning can be combined along with play and their day to day activities do not need to be structured.

NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE CITY

Children tend to interact with their community on a day to day basis, i.e. their neighborhood. Different kind of neighborhoods were chosen to be studied-Planned and Unplanned. In each of these neighborhoods children were interviewed about their daily routine and the kind of spaces that they generally occupy in their vicinity for playing and other activities.

KHAR DANDA

Khar Danda is a old fishing village. It consists of work plus living environment , exposing children to fishing and net making. The narrow streets in the koliwada promote free play for children as they are not directly under the adult supervision but yet are safe in that environment as it is a close knit neighborhood.

Local informal open spaces allowed children to claim and own space more easily than formal open spaces, to freely express themselves, as well as to seek out secret places. They use the narrow streets and in between spaces for their own kind of imaginative play. The beach gives them an open space to play sports like cricket and football as well as exposing them to their surrounding environment from which they can learn from.

BDD CHAWLS

After studying the daily routines of kids in this neighborhood,this planned neighborhood unifies the community, It lets children be care free and play in their immediate surroundings .They find their own spaces for play like the corridors of the building or sheds in between chawls. There is always someone from the community to have a eye on them making them feel secure in between people and spaces they feel comfortable in. The don’t necessarily go for any particular classes,and tend to study by themselves at home.

LIC COLONY

LIC is an entire colony so there are no compound walls between buildings and all the buildings are getting integrated. There is a lot of mangroves growing around this area with small parks getting integrated within. The buildings have terraces promoting interaction of children between the floors.

There are large open grounds near all the buildings where cars get parked now preventing play spaces for the children. The children go walking to the nearby schools and attend a number of classes and tuitions after school hours.

The thesis intends to understand how the idea of play and the daily life of children has changed over time with urbanization, and what happens to the children as the city transforms. To help children gain knowledge of themselves and their environments , so they will be able to operate effectively with humanity in todays world, together with interplay of family, community and urban landscape.

Making the surrounding environment, neighborhoods friendly for children and how these surroundings can improve learning along with play for children. Making the children have a better contact with the city by letting them break away from their daily routines.

Guide-Pinkish Shah

The Banni grasslands form a belt of arid grasslands on the edge of the desert of the lands of Kutch, Gujarat. This area is socially as well as ecologically valuable. It has a number of grass species and bird species as well as domesticated animals The banni grassland is a very horizontal landscape. The idea of the towers was to break through this horizontality, touching lightly upon the banni land“preserving the present� so as not to harm the existing landscape.

The Primary goal of the observatory is to record / create a data base of the fragile ecology, the flora and the fauna of the region, in order to preserve it and at the same time to provide a place for the general public to understand this ecology as well as to view / see the migratory birds without disturbing their natural habitat. The multiple towers (5) are spread across the land and linked to each other with the help of ramps and bridges.

The towers act like trees that house humans to view the migratory birds with balconies that open up at different levels and decks near the water to study the birds. All the elements in the tower enhance this vericality.

The towers were all worked with a grid of 10x 10 meters. And were five to six storeys high depending on the program. The different materials that were used were environmentally friendly like bamboo, wood and straw bale with steel used only for structure. Glass facade was used in places carefully so as not allowing it to gain a lot of sunlight.

Academic Project Architectural Design Semester 7, 2016.

Guide-Nimit Killawala

The project in Gwalior was a mainly an urban study.

We were divided into groups to study Gwalior through various lenses.

The topic through which we decide to study Gwalior was the various stone quarries and the way stone is manufactured.

The quarries are located on the northern and western fringe of the city, there are defunct as well as active quarries. The defunct quarries have been commissioned by the MCG as solid waste landfills. This is having an adverse effect on the ecological systems around the quarry site. The intent of this study is to understand the relationship that the quarry has with its surrounding built forms, especially Transport Nagar.

The Idea of the project was to transform the existing stone quarry which will soon be a dump-yard for waste into a garbage recycling unit. It would also pose as a tourist attraction with various activities thus connecting the city to these isolated spaces within the city. Taking a step further the quarry will go through a process in which it will be turned from a grey landscape to a greener one and will increase the biodiversity in the area.

STUDY OF QUARRIES IN GWALIOR

PROCESSING AND DISTRIBUTION OF STONE

The quarries are located on the northern and western fringe of the city, there are defunct as well as active quarries. The defunct quarries have been commissioned by the MCG as solid waste landfills. This is having an adverse effect on the ecological systems around the quarry site. The intent of this study is to understand the relationship that the quarry has with its surrounding built forms, especially Transport Nagar.

Raw stones from the quarry site are transported to the stone park where it is cleaned and cut, polished and packaged. These finished stone slabs come in different sizes. These slabs are then transported to the GMC area and exported to other nations.

STUDY OF TRANSPORT NAGAR

FOOD NETWORK

WATER SUPPLY

Restaurants are situated only near the NH3 Road due to frequent transportation. There is absence of smaller food joints in Transport Nagar for the industry workers. The school situated in Kishanbaug settlement only recieves specialized food from an NGO in the old city.

There is no market for the settlements,Making them travel to the old city for food supplies

Water supply for Transport Nagar is classified into three sources: Rakkas OHT, Water Tankers and Wells present in the settlements. As a huge stretch of land is under unclassified water supply area there is insufficient supply of water and thus they need to rely on wells as a source of water.

PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

The site is at the edge of the defunct quarry, there are also small scale industries around. The workers for these industries come from the small settlement next to the quarry. The road that connects to NH3 also runs through the site. The site has becomes a major pit stop for many truck drivers because of the presence of the truck repair shops and Ashok Leyland manufacturing units.

Guide- P.K Das Work published in ‘Design Beyond Boundaries’ Bridge Studio’18- KRVIA + PUDDI

Spaces in the neighborhood and along the nullah are fragmented, disparate, exclusive and colonized thereby resulting in the nullah becoming a backyard. This is due to the boundaries that exist along and around the nullah. These boundaries are not just physical elements like compound walls but also policy related issues such as land use, tight community spaces which makes the nullah inaccessible thus rendering it a dumping ground. This water body which was once a stream has over the years of abuse turned into a ‘nullah’.

The site is interspersed with numerous public functions such as parks, a government yard, Sangeet Mahabharti- a music school, as well as the framed Nalanda Institute for Dance thus creating a strong sense of culture.

The project involves breaking of barriers via the integration of varied user groups by creating open courtyards as informal spaces for perforances of dance, theatre and music, thus creating a porous built form across the site, allowing passers by to engage with the functions. An open library and cafe is planned to integrate the students from nearby schools and colleges with open courtyards as connectors.

HISTORICAL EVOLUTION

THE NULLAH AND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD Various elements of breaking, networking, and decongesting

were identified along the cross section of the nullah, which suggests integration through programmatic interventions. The design process was envisioned in two phases- the first being the cleaning of the nullah water, and the second being integrating architectural programs to form public spaces networking along the waterfront. The phase-wise evolution of the nullah enables for simultaneous developments to happen along the stretch of the nullah.

Thus the project tries to break these barriers which render the nullah a dysfunctional system, and create unified neighborhood with the water-body running as a spine and functioning as an important public spaces network.

The site for the Kumbh Mela Archving Centre is in Allahabad very near to where the Sangam of the rivers takes place. The Kumbh Mela takes place here every four years. The given site was a rectangular linear plot of land near a Hanuman Temple and backed by a massive fort wall, the fort is currently used as an army cantonment area. The idea of the project was to provide a space for people to gather and hold religious discussions, for students to learn about religion and read the different scriptures.

The space is also for tourists to know more about the significance of the Kumbh Mela and a place for temporary as well as permanent exhibitions to take place.

The entire site being a very horizontal landscape, the idea was create layers and multiply this horizontality.These multipe layers to be held by thick parallel rammed earth walls. The thick walls give a sense of permanence to the site along with the fort wall which acts as a backdrop to the intervention. The designed structure was more open to allow a thurougfare of people to pass through it,so as to avoid a stampede during the Kumbh Mela. During the Kumbh Mela students will archive the different activities taking place and the discussions between the various religious people will be archived as well.

There are two interfaces happening at different levels. The upper level being more public, letting people in and out of the space easily, while the lower levels are more privet for study and storing important scripture and documents. This lower level is more restricted and will be able to be occupied by only a certain number of people.

The rammed earth walls will give a more natural feel to the entire intervention in comparison to the horizontal RCC slabs.

The city of Allahabad is at the very tip of the Doab where two rivers Ganga and Jamuna meet- and is said also to be the meeting point of a third river underground - the Saraswati. As a result this city has been one of the most important religious centers of the Hindu religion- being the site where the Kumbh mela is held every 4 years. Subsequent developments include the Mughal emperor Akbar establishing a fort and a larger settlement on the banks of the Yamuna. Later colonial development took place to the North of this older city separated by the railway line. This area is starkly different from the rest of the city. As an important colonial center the government of the time established all the important institutions of colonial government in the town- including a high court and a university.

This made Allahabad an important intellectual and cultural center for the region. With this, also came the rise of the middle class intellectuals who were to become the leaders of the nationalist movement that led to the freedom struggle of the nation. it was only in the post- independence era that Allahabad began to be marginalised as a center of learning.

Today, as we see dramatic increase in the urbanisation of the country, the city of Allahabad too is experiencing the pressures of sudden growth.

This growth is often unregulated and is rarely mindful of the historical narrative that has given the city it’s unique character.

Study Trip Agenda The Study Trip Documentation draws a transect across the history and geography of Allahabad documenting residential fabrics, institutional buildings and public spaces.

Millions of refugees have crossed borders over the last few years and months. Fleeing from war and destruction, persecution and execution, from politically motivated atrocities to helplessness and hopelessness and the horrors, seeking asylum and restitution. A chance for a new life in a new place. A place they want to call home. A place where they want to feel at home. A place where they should be allowed to feel at home.

Individuals, families, communities, displaced. Men, women, children, fighting for food and shelter. If they are luckier than others, a refugee camp awaits them, with long durations of due process and vetting. Here, an individual can spend years awaiting their fate. This time is especially valuable for children.

Refugees have skills, ideas, hopes and dreams‌ They are also tough, resilient and creative, with the energy and drive to shape their own destinies, given the chance.�

UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi.

RE(fugee) School is a collective space for the children of the camps and elders alike. Through the morning the school functions as an educational facility for children through the process of holistic evolution. Learning through engagement, Learning with community, Learning through environment, through classrooms, courtyards and the landscape respectively. Closed, Open and Semi-open spaces will provide opportunity to house a multiplicity of activities for the purposes of education and healthcare.

Evenings will see the structure transform into a stronghold for the community providing needed assistance and sharing.

Bamboo, rope, tarpaulin, earth and scrap metal, most easily available, but also demands very less technical skill in construction of these schools, also becoming a place that gives pride for people who helped construct and habit these essential structures.

tonnes of waste,

As cities degenerate, their most unsought grounds for habitation are being reclaimed for use. Forgotten landfills, which once lay at a distance are today contagious and unhealthy neighbors to settlements of the urban poor. An unnerving dichotomy- of concrete jungle and depleting natural systems; water scarcity and seasonal flooding; polluted rivers and lakes while water is brought from afar. The emerging city in its exclusivity offers poor quality of living, the worst to its poorest in these waste lands who are ultimately the largest contributors to the city engine.

The selected site lies at the marshy edges of Mumbai along a tributary to the creek between the island city and mainland. The expanse of the Shivaji Nagar Slum in Govandi is a classic example of unplanned and unregulated densification. The settlements proximity to the natural asset, the creek, has resulted in it becoming a waste channel on the city’s existing development plan. The parcel of land reflects a site and services grid iron plan proposed for slum-rehabilitation before being abandoned.

The site boundary of 1sqkm, aims to capture the socio-ecological politics that have been created between the marshes, the Deonar dumping ground and the slums. The waste impact has eroded the mangroves that were flourishing as part of the marshland ecosystems. Located along a busy transit corridor the site offers a valuable connectedness. The site stands testimony to opportunity gone wrong with residents buying potable water at the price of mineral water.

Aseema Bal Shaikshanik Kendra at Awalkheda, Igatpuri Campus Development Educated Environments

Aseema is a Mumbai based non-governmental organization with a mission to provide underprivileged children with a nurturing and stimulating educational environment that helps them recognize their limitless potential.

Since 1997, Aseema has been providing holistic and relevant education to Mumbai’s most neglected children living on the streets, or in slums and in inhuman conditions. In partnership with the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), they support three municipal schools where children receive high quality education. At their Support Centre, children spend their evenings constructively strengthening their academic foundation. They are also reaching out to the tribal children in the villages of Igatpuri through the Sitabai Kavji Mengal Anganwadi at Jambhwadi and the Aseema Bal Shaikshanik Kendra at Awalkheda, Igatpuri.

They have witnessed the impact that a high quality education has on the lives of our young children. We have had three batches of children appear for the SSC Board Exam with a result of 97%.

A Future-Ready Eco-School The Igatpuri Campus is a 14-acre gift from nature. Aseema proposes to develop this site in an environmentallysensitive manner, in keeping with our values. We plan to use the campus as an extension of our classrooms, using it to build our students’ understanding of the environment and the sustainable use of natural resources.

The master plan guides the future development on the site and integrates the school’s needs. It aims to create a sensitive ecological landscape that not only benefits the site but also becomes an educational tool for the children. The master plan enhances the existing features of the site, makes the site self-sufficient in terms of water, uses Eco-friendly interventions, and converts the site and its buildings into a living laboratory for the students and visitors.

Professional Practice Waki Ashram School (Dahanu) Girls Dormitory and Boys Toilets Educated Environments

Waki Ashram School is a village school in Dahanu, Maharashtra. This school is being taken care of by Anandacare Charitable Trust.

The children in this school come from villages near Dahanu, they stay back in school and only go back home during the holidays.

Our responsibility as a team was to provide them with affordable and clean living conditions that are easy to maintain.

The Sanitary conditions in which the children were kept were very poor, our aim was to provide simple solutions for the bathrooms and toilets for both the boys and girls. The toilets were given natural ventilation and a good amount of washing area to wash their clothes and other personal belongings.

The children slept in the same space as they studied at night, not giving them any privacy or a sense of space, thus it was very important to provide them with good spaces for sleeping, where they could also spend their evenings to study as well as play.

The Girls dormitory was divided into two spaces with 30 girls in each, with a private courtyard between the two dormitories , giving them their own semi-open space. The upper level of the dormitory is a shaded terrace where they can study as well as play in the evenings.

The basic structure for the dormitory is an RCC structure, with exposed brick walls that have a brick jali and wooden slat louvered windows. The idea of the sloping roof was to use it for rain water harvesting and solar paneling thus teaching the children about renewable sources of energy as well as reducing the overall costs of the campus.

Professional Practice Internship Between Spaces Principal Architect- Pramod Jaiswal , Divya Ethirajan

BetweenSpaces is an architecture firm founded in 2010. They operate from their own studio in Bangalore, As architects, they endeavour to create buildings that are respectable and responsible, are cost effective and makes living comfortable and gratifying. As much as the practice loves to explore these intimate spaces and work on construction details, it also has its interest in how the building sits on the site and interacts with the street and its surrounding. They enjoy working with certain materials; bricks, concrete, wood, metal, light and air but our design evolves as a response to a clear understanding of our client’s requirements and aspirations. They question, we debate and analyse the brief to come up with ideas which are unique and native to the context.

DURAYASWAMI HOUSE This was mainly an interior project, together with re-making the facade.

For this project I was working along with a Jr. Architect, I got to work in making options for the interiors, sketch up views and renders was the mode of representation for the clients. Attending the meeting with the clients was very beneficial as it helped me understand how to negotiate with them and make them understand our design.

KESAV REDDY HOUSE I got to work on the working drawings for this project. The detailing of the doors and windows, along with the electrical drawings of this project.

Guide- Jasmine Saluja, Fan Wenbig Team- Aayushi Sejpal, Devanshi Saravya, Adhish Parkar, Shou, Yin, Zhen, Chen, Lin, Qian and Zhang

Jiuxing Market ( Jiuxing means “nine stars�) was entirely transformed from juixing village of Qibao town. Located inthe south west of Shanghai, Juixing Village is governed by Qibao Town , Mihang Districtof Shanghai.

The village covers an area of 1.23 sq.km, conssing of 19 villager - groups, 1185 households and4600 villagers.

The market has 26 zones selling respectively hardware, ceramics, sanitation equipment, hotel ware, light bulbs, upholstery, etc. The study aims at analysing each zone from the market understanding how the market functions and coming up with proposals forit to function better.

Each group was divided into different zones. we were to identify a special characteristic in any zone and describe it in two simple words.

The words our group came up with to describe the market was 1-Heartbeat We thought of the word heartbeat because during the day people from within the village (which was in the central part of our zone of study) disperse out into the market for their work.. Leaving the village almost empty and without any activity, but in the evening all these people return to the village and it starts buzzing with activity. The villagers form their own groups and dance on the streets, play cards, sing, cook food and other various things. This continuous inflow and out flow of people from within the village reminded us of the heart more in particular the heartbeat.

2-Library The Market is divided into various divisions as per commodity, just like a library when it is divided as per the genre of the book. We studied the activities of various customers and spoke them. We looked at how a customers made his/her choice when they were faced with a sea of possibilities.

LIBRARY

Highlighted below is the zone chosen to be studied by our team(zone 4). Most of the shops in this store were either lighting or hardware shops on the ground floor with storage or living quarters on the upper floors. Within this zone there was also a village area where the workers and laborers of the market stayed.

Exhibition UnEarth FAB Bienalle, 2018 December Team-Educated Environments

UnEarth is inspired by the grey area that lies between the realities of everyday and aspirational fiction which has come to be known as sustainability. The installation-exhibition builds on the guidelines provided by parallel research from around the world- scientific hypotheses, global news headlines, financial bottom lines, and info-graphics by various agencies. These become the foundation agents to build a storyline that addresses the change cycles that have been set in motion by our quest for a better future. At FAB, the future has been spot lit in the consciousness of the architecture and building industry. For us at EdEn (Educated Environments), it is as an opportunity to fast forward many millennia then backtrack to the story of (Wo)MAN kind, known to be the thinking species and its spaceship called planet earth. A story that will be told in the time to come by the state of planet earth and its health reflected in the lifecycles of its future generations.

It is often said that the progress man has made in the last hundred years or so is far greater than the progress made since man has existed on this planet. Rewinding up the history lane, it would be wrong to compartmentalise much of the last century of man under the modern age only. Every passing decade has seen a catalytic process that has leap frogged every industry, be and finally the constantly evolving landscape of information - building and infrastructure sector, food and agriculture, medical and pharmaceutical, fashion apparel and finally even the constantly changing world of social media and information technology.

This progress has been definitive, shifting our existence from a species in survival mode to one that has established its supremacy on planet earth.

However with this progress, the human imprint on planet earth has left its equilibrium fluctuating, in a manner where the extinction of other species is happening at a rate thousand times faster than ever before in history.

REFLECTED MATERIALITY

WASTED! THE AFTER PARTY

FABRICS OF ILL-FATE

Our research into the construction industry revealed the massive scale of the impacts caused by it. This drove us to create a larger than life installation as an elegy to the unsustainable practices and desires of the 21st century man. The installation consisted of linear elements emerging from the frustum of a cone with a mirror placed at the focal point of elements. We used materials from various sites ranging from Aluminum C-Sections, dry wall, glass wool and bricks. Each one of us is responsible for driving this need for building materials, so it seems apt that standing in front of this overbearing installation, each visitor sees himself at the focal point of all this waste.

The food that we eat goes through various processes and has traveled several miles before reaching our plates.

People all over the world with their changing habits and evolving lifestyles have affected the throwaway food culture immensely. The display is a projection of the food waste the world throws out, culminating into a heap of food and packaging waste. The different shades of threads depict the concentration of food waste generated by a particular country. The idea of the installation is to engage a person’s mind to imagine the enormous effect a basic necessity like food can have on the planet.

SILENT PREDATORS

LAYERS THAT LIE

The impact of the pharmaceutical industry is not only seen on the terrestrial environment but also on the marine ecosystem, birds and human life. The research discussed the various issues of biomagnification of drugs through the food chain. The installation comprised of five different frames depicting various kinds of waste like medicine packaging, expired tablets, dentures, gloves, medical syringes and other kinds of hospital waste. The research put light on facts such as millions of vultures in India were killed by exposure to the anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac, ibuprofen affects reproduction in fish, including the delayed hatching of eggs.

Electronic waste consists of electronic products that were used for data processing, telecommunications, or for entertainment in private households and businesses that are now considered obsolete, broken, or un-repairable. It is a valuable source of secondary raw materials if treated properly. The installation highlights the various layers and materials that go into the making of these products.

The discarded electronic equipments contain hazardous substances, which can affect the health of everyone around the world. The goal of the installation is to create an awareness amongst people not only about recycling the right way, but also increase the utility of the product.
