project VIVACIOUS.

National Kinectic Academy Museum of Art and Design. 3rd Year urban project for Design Studio

@ Near financial center metro station, sheikh zayed road, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The primary focus of this project revolves around the innovation strategy aims to position the UAE among the world’s top leaders of innovation and to develop a type of thinking that encourages exper mentation and taking well-thought out risks to achieve the goals of UAE Centennial 2071.

The growing demographic of dubai shapes towards young minds tributing towards a lot of science backgroundwas the primary focus. These young minds revolving around a moving world has incredible mindsets and ideas.

Focusing on niche of the demographic belonging to the physics background has a lot of potential on kinetics and in correlations to art from physics.

Moving sculptural pieces will not only cause excitement within the population spread around dubai but will also spark an inter disciplinary reaction on how to translate art and design from physics and motion, uniting two different worlds from science and art backgrounds

SITE CONDITIONS

FUNCTIONAL ALLOCATION

The frontage of the site plays a major role as it is directly facing the SZR. Another key inference was that the SZR was actually acting as a barrier rather than oppurtunity frontage.

FRONTAGE OF THE SITE

This is a performative model which sort illustrates a stillness when in motion.

The swindle mechanism at the bottom helps to create a radial motion solely powered by mechanical motion.

DYNAMIC ROOF FOLDING with the help of mulifunctional spaces, the theatre can become into an aphitheatre and a open space for a weeks event using hydraulic technology which helps the project with econmical sustainability. axis has been tilted slightly to get the maximum angle for sun light access inside the exhibitonal areas. since sunlight plays a vital role in the understanding of the kinetic art with references to its shade and shadows generated, the dynamic building integrated technolgy would help channel this characterstic. the Performative models, helps to achieve a greater understanding on the working of the dynamic roof that would open and close as per the sun movement. v

Architectural Competition: Students Re-inventing cities SRC-40 2nd year. International Competition

@ Karama, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The project aims to achieve the agenda of waste management, Carbon sink, and circular conservation through a very cyclic idealogy of linking the 4 given plots to create an ecosystem.

EDIBLE ROOFTOP GARDENS

- helps reduce overall building temperature - increasing green cover to reduce carbon levels

ALGAE

Being photosynthetic, algae intakes atmospheric carbon thereby improving air quality index Its bioluminescence causes it to glow in the night and has hence been used to define the cycle tracks. It is also capable of generating energy which could later be used to power street lights.

Adjourn to Alteration.

RIBA Sketching competition. Dubai Design Week. 3rd year International RIBA sketching Competition. Reimagining Cityscape post-pandemic.

The surroundings that you situate yourself is constantly instigating us to do different things when the space around us is not a suitable place for fulfilling our needs. The intention of pause in our understanding is to change or to alternate ourselves in a different path where our needs are met. When we commit to an activity of the same monotony, our lifestyle intends to be more monotonous which can be quite challenging and restricting.

Cities today have become the very existing example of what limitations can lead to. This is the sole reason why when we get a vacation to truly pause ourselves, we try and leave the city for vacations, for say why can’t our city be our vacations spot. When we design cities, we should rather build upon on the nature rather than shaping it as we are part of nature ourselves. Today nature is disconnected from most cites thus its like spaces to resuscitate rather than creating an ecosystem where our diverse needs and choices are met in accordance with our mother nature. Ergo, the illustration depicts eventually over time we humans would adjourn to create an alternation in our lifestyles where we get tired of the rigidity where our lifestyles and diverse requirements are met in accordance with nature.
