I like to do field Works also.

When I decided to enter in Architecture field 7 years before, I was constantly trying to study architecture. But at some point I realized that I can’t study Architecture, but can only experience it. Today when I am working in my office , doing design concepts, I always try to get more exposure, learn new ideas, meet new people, use every opportunity which make me close to the field I love Even though I do my best presently, I like to get more exposure to experience my field more. That’s the reason I prefer to work with new people. I hope working in your firm will bring a change in my life,knowledge and in everything.

Sincerely , Ar.

The site is flanged by vegetated areas which adds more privacy and pacific character to the site. The river not only provide views but also create a micro climate which create a human comfort environment. The site is com-

pletely isolated from the hecticness of city life. So the requirement of the client was to create 4 units of home stay for the people who like to spent some quality time away from their daily rush routine.

Concept

The design provide space for people to feel the nature and enjoy their precious time. The scheme to create extroverted design where spaces are blend with natural elements.

The client was a professor and his initial brief of the design was to create a studio apartment with basic amenities to stay for a long period. In the beginning the apartment consists of a vacant volume of height 4.5 m , a toilet, kitchen space and a balcony overlooking exterior open space. The client needed a major portion of space storage because he has collection of books which include more than 1500 books. Since the apartment is just 40 sqm if area and it’s hard to accommodate all of the requirements without compromising the quality of space

Planning

The design focuses on providing maximum amenities like kitchen , dining , living, bar counter , study space, bed space, storage etc. To achieve this , a kitchen island is added to existing kitchen which change the overall functionality of the space. This space can be used as kitchen and dining space. The balcony replaced with large sliding window overlooking the outdoor to gain additional space in interior and convert it into living space. Planter box and sliding folding screens are provided at the edge of the room to get a pleasant view and shadow to interior. The volume divided into Two by adding a mezzanine floor, which accommodate bed space , wardrobe, and study space. In this way we got 20 sqms of extra
