FURNITURE DESIGN PARTITION SYSTEM Decode a toy through it’s geometry, form and working by making models and diagrams. Extract an underlying logic of the toy and use it in another geometry to create a similar toy. Apply the newly extracted logic from the new toy into making a furniture or element which reflects the said logic, for a space of your choice. The Furntiture element that was extracted from the toy is an Interactive Partition System, which can be opened up in few parts which are needed and the other parts can be closed off to block the visual connection.

PRODUCT DESIGN PRODUCT STUDY Imagine a space of 100 m2 area, assign a function to the space and study products that are made of metal and can be used in that space. The space taken is a public washroom in a mall. The products that have been studied vary from being made out of aluminum and stainless steel to bronze and copper. The Products are a Faucet, a Trough and a Cubicle Holding Detail (Extrusion).
PRODUCT DESIGN -Designing a product made of aluminum extrusion. The total cost of the extrusion should not exceed Rs. 240 for two people in a group.
-Designing a storage box for kitchen with a capacity of 6000 cm3. It should accommodate at least 8 products inside it and also be made out of 1 mm steel sheet. -16-

SPACE PLANNING -29-
Aagmn Aagaman is an intervention for travel enthusiasts or back packers, who seek to encounter new people and explore. Initially studying Door as a spatial element, the attribute ‘Transitions was selected and explored as a design strategy. The design proposal acts as a humble transition connecting the existing ramp to the proposed public verandah. This public space acts like a shaded spill over of the adjacent cannon point and generates possibilities of passive interaction for the travellers living in this home.

CO-WORKING SPACES STUDIO KAARIGAR In architecture and design, the design process typically starts with defining the ‘Shell/ Architecture ’ of the building as a first step. The factors affecting the ‘Shell/Architecture’ are, by and large, external in nature such as: climate, privacy and so on. The idea of ‘shelter’ dominates the process of design and plays crucial role in generating form of the building. In this studio, we were encouraged to evolve interior elements and systems as first step in design process. The ‘skin’/architecture of the project was generated as the next step by synthesizing conflicting requirements generated by the ‘interior’ and ‘exterior’ forces.

STUDIO KAARIGAR Studio Kaarigar is a co-working space for makers and designers to come together and work under a single roof. Due to this modern era, there is a lack of makers in our community and even less number of coworking spaces for makers and designers to work together. The studio is located in Navrangpura, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, in a prime location which is surrounded by commercial buildings.

CO-CURRICULAR MAKING 3D-KITE Making a 3D kite by tessallating a single module of tetrahedral shaped kite. The overall form is also a Tetrahedron. Under the guidance of Mr. VISHAL WADHWANI and Ms. NIYATI PATEL, we made this kite out of Raincoat Fabric, Plastic Tubes and 3D printed joinery. The joineries had been 3D printed with ultrat, and the fabric was stitched after appropriate surface development.
FOUNDATION DAY LAMP Making a Lamp to celebrate School of Interior Design’s Foundation Day (2nd September). Taking form inspiration from a tensile model which has 6 compression members and cables as tensile members, holding the whole form together. The members are made of MS Pipes and the ends are made of wood. The Tensile members are SS cables tightened with Turnbuckles. -44-
