Designing a grand and elegant Ceremony Hall in Thanjavur with a classical look is an exciting challenge. Given the parameters and desired aesthetic, here’s a refined concept to achieve a palace-like elegance:

Exterior Design

Columns: Use Corinthian or Composite columns to achieve a regal appearance. Ensure they are tall and graceful, extending to the height of the building’s upper floors. Integrate ornate capitals and detailed fluting. Windows: Long, arched windows with intricate, decorative grills or shutters. Use stained glass or frosted glass to add a touch of elegance while ensuring privacy.

Arches: Incorporate grand, multi-tiered arches to create depth and enhance the classical look. Use these arches around windows and doorways to create a harmonious design.

Brackets: Add elaborate brackets under the cornice and architraves to support and embellish the structure. Choose designs that echo classical motifs like acanthus leaves or geometric patterns.

2. Entrance:

Double-Height Portico: Design a majestic portico with a high, coffered ceiling. Use a series of columns to support the portico, ensuring they are adorned with detailed carvings.

SCOPE OF WORK

Classical Residencial Design

Symmetry and Balance: Emphasize the symmetry of the facade. Both the front and east-facing sides should feature harmonious elements, like matching arches and columns, to create a balanced look from both roads.

Grand Entrance: Enhance the double-height entrance portico with intricately carved wooden or metal doors, and use gold leaf or ornate patterns to add a regal touch.

Architectural Elements:

Arches and Domes: Incorporate a series of graceful arches and domes. Consider a slightly elongated dome or adding a pattern within it for added grandeur.

GRC Jolly and Brackets: Use these elements not only on the portico but also around windows and doors for a cohesive look. Intricate designs can enhance the classical aesthetic.

Fluted Columns: Opt for more elaborate column bases and capitals, perhaps with floral or geometric patterns, to give a richer classical feel.

Balcony and Dome:

Grand Balcony: Make the balcony a focal point by adding decorative railings with Islamic geometric patterns. Include a detailed balustrade with carved details to highlight its importance.

Dome: Consider incorporating stained glass or intricate geometric patterns in the dome for a stunning interior effect. Ensure the chandelier is suitably grand, with cascading elements that complement the dome’s design.

Materials and Finishes:

Paint and Texture: Choose a light-colored paint with a subtle sheen to enhance the palace-like ambiance. A textured finish on the facade can add depth and richness.

Materials: Use high-quality materials such as marble or stone for the arches and columns. Incorporate brass or bronze detailing for a touch of luxury.

Landscaping and Lighting:

Landscaping: Frame the residence with lush gardens, symmetrical pathways, and water features like fountains to accentuate the grandeur of the architecture.

Lighting: Install ambient lighting that highlights the architectural features in the evening. Use concealed lighting in the arches and columns, and consider spotlights to illuminate the dome.

Interior Spaces:

Entrance Hall: Design the entrance hall with high ceilings and grand proportions to match the external portico. Use rich materials like marble or polished wood for flooring and walls.

Interior Arches and Domes: Extend the use of arches and domes into the interior, particularly in the grand entrance and main reception areas.

These enhancements will elevate the classical Islamic style of your residence, creating a majestic and harmonious blend of elegance and grandeur.

Classiacal Kitchen in modular Functions:

Inspired by the grandeur of classical palace designs, this modular kitchen exemplifies timeless elegance and functionality. Originally conceived as an island kitchen, the design was thoughtfully adapted to align with the client’s preferences. The central island now serves as a sophisticated breakfast counter, flanked by a well-organized crockery unit on one side and a vegetable storage rack on the other, each with proper ventilation to maintain freshness and convenience.

Tall wall units extend towards the ceiling, offering ample storage and contributing to the kitchen’s imposing, regal presence. Classical architectural elements—such as cornices, brackets, and fluted details—are meticulously crafted and painted in a rich rosewood finish, enhancing the space’s opulent feel.

The kitchen is predominantly constructed from teak wood, renowned for its durability and luxurious appearance, while fireproof MDF is used for the shutters to ensure both safety and style. All finishes, including handles and hinges, are in elegant brass, complementing the rosewood tones.

To complete the luxurious ambiance, a stunning chandelier is suspended above the island, casting a warm, sophisticated glow and accentuating the kitchen’s palaceinspired aesthetic. This kitchen harmoniously blends classic beauty with modern functionality, creating a space that is both practical and exquisitely refined

Trees for Shade: Mature trees are strategically planted to offer ample shade and create a cool, pleasant environment. Tree species are selected for their local adaptability, providing seasonal color and texture.

Bushes and Mulching: Bushes are used to create natural barriers and enhance privacy, while a mulching system ensures healthy soil and reduces maintenance needs around trees and plant beds. Functional Elements:

Eco Dome Project Overview

We completed an exciting Eco Dome project in a village in Karnataka. The core concept of this initiative is to create sustainable, earthen structures using locally available materials. This low-cost construction technique not only supports environmental sustainability but also makes it affordable for economically weaker sections (EWS) of society.

Our client, a farmer with extensive land holdings, resides in a city far from his farmland. To effectively manage his property and enjoy his weekends, he desired an eco-friendly farmhouse. Embracing the use of earthen materials, he opted for this environmentally conscious approach.

The Eco Dome project was designed to meet his needs while promoting sustainability and affordability, resulting in a practical and harmonious addition to his rural landscape

Form is an outcome of material manipulation under force. A workshop with intense hands on undertaking attempts to establish a relationship between material and form, through articulation of forces. Thereby development of material system by articulating interaction of rigid (linear- timber, bamboo, steel / planar – veneer, ply, timber, laminate, steel) and flexible materials.

Using both the stiffness and flexibility present in materials or induced using simple techniques or operations for material manipulation; we shall develop this ‘material system’ as an assembly where interactions of matter and energies compute form, driven by complex constraints and feedbacks from manufacturing, environment and human interaction. In the process, material rather than being a passive receptor of form begins to be an active generator of form. Here working models and prototypes are primary design tools be it understanding form, material behaviour, stability and structural behaviour.

Designing a container office involves creating a functional and comfortable workspace using repurposed shipping containers. Here are some key aspects to consider for a well-designed container office:

1. Layout and Space Planning

Floor Plan: Maximize the use of the container’s limited space. Consider an open-plan layout for flexibility or partitioned areas for separate workstations.

Zones: Define areas for different functions, such as workstations, meeting areas, and break rooms.

2. Interior Design

Lighting: Incorporate natural light through windows or skylights. Use adjustable LED lighting for energy efficiency.

Color Scheme: Light colors can make the space feel larger. Consider neutral tones with accents of color for a modern look.

Furniture: Opt for compact, multifunctional furniture to save space. Ergonomic chairs and desks are crucial for comfort and productivity.
