about This is a big challenge, in which we need to give some different amazing structure, In the present structure and space.

So that I took it as it is and don’t want to change existing column position and any other major construction which is done, with that I want to make a focal point for the hole complex that which is truly related to the definition of this project and make it attractive for buyers.

What I designed it has a potential to being a iconic built not only for Bangalore even not India only but for the world. Design in India.

Concept Structure Something very different which is not made till date, which is one of its kind of structure a Wonder.

Most Stable

+

Ecology Which define Eco World project and there built environment and most important the expectation of client RMZ and the reputation of DP Architects in the design world.

Not Stable

Want to take inverted pyramid and design a structure that provide it same stability as other structure.

I want to used this technology called “Air Bonsai.” the floating Bonsai plant It consists two part the bottom half called the Energy Base and The Floating Ball – called Little Star.

Both halves have magnets installed so that the “little star” could float with the bonsai on top.

The base is made of traditional Japanese porcelain and the bonsai can be replaced with any other plant, if you will.

So I shown the use of this technology in a custom way, it is very easy to do that.

Want to put which is spacious then anything and Nature is the answer which most powerful and amazing. So the most amazing creation of man with Nature is Bonsai Trees.

To make this more amazing I want the form looks in levitation

Structure For this design, structure is playing the main role in this concept so conceptualization of structure is very important in this design .

I used clear glass as a main material because the transparence enables to see through this, it is not block the view but U can filter the view with this.

I Hang the pyramid 450 mm above the ground through this kind of structure .

Structure

1. Lower Part

To maintain its transparence I want to use that kind of structure system which is not so bulky thin in size and even like to minimize it without reducing the stability of the structure, for that concern I propose the tensile wire structure not to use bulky steel section in all over the surface.

And also conceptualize to minimize the structure and make it more stable in any of the conditions.

Lower part of the pyramid is directly joined with four columns through a custom design metal structure.

LOAD

2. Upper Part Upper part is the most challenging in terms of structure design because the glass curtain walls in a tilt outside and all four walls loads outside.

Outside loads

This tensile structure convert all the glass panels in to one panel

And then other structure put the counter load of that structurally converted one plan to inside on center axis of pyramid

COUNTER LOAD

The structure of pyramid divided into three parts1. Lower Part 2. Upper Part 3. Ceiling Part

The counter load is attached to a spring attachment its also helps to bear shocks at the time of Earthquake.

3. Ceiling Part For Ceiling part there is a multiple types of loadbearing attachments.

This structure hold the center ceiling part and also designed to hold the Floating Tree arrangement.

Sagging loads

There is a light reflective coating on the outer surface of the ceiling panel that prevent inside to got hotter
