Row House

Academic project I Semester 03 I 2022

This row house design is located near a toll gate on the Tumkur to Bangalore highway. The site measures 60x18 meters and features a 9-meter wide road. The use of origami architecture creates a dynamic and ever-changing aesthetic for the buildings. A total of 6 row houses are included in the design, each with 3BHK and 1 home theatre.

The design emphasizes natural light and ventilation throughout each row house. Privacy, noise reduction, and energy efficiency are also important considerations in the design. The layout and arrangement of the buildings on the site are carefully planned. The changing shades and patterns with the movement of the sun enhance the visual appeal of the buildings.

Dynamic Facade

Hotel facade that incorporates adaptive or dynamic facade design.

A dynamic facade is a skin that has evolved over time with the help of engineered solutions; its purpose is to assist in the progression of Sustainable and Responsive architecture.

Dynamic facades act as filters between the indoors and the outside, facilitating the users by providing shade, sunlight, ventilation and a visual union with the moving world outside. This idea isn’t new, but architects have only recently started incorporating it into their designs and structures.

hrough fully integrated design strategies, today’s facade can provide responsive and per-formative envelopes that both contextually and conceptually react to their local surroundings, whilst simultaneously determining interior conditions

In modern facade design, fins made from advanced materials are commonly used. These fins are strategically arranged to block direct sunlight, thereby reducing heat gain and improving the comfort of the building’s occupants. Additionally, the design of the fins also takes into consideration the flow of wind, allowing for good natural ventilation. By incorporating these features, modern facade design can help create more comfortable and sustainable buildings.

Art Gallery

Academic project I Semester 05 I 2021

The art gallery project near Tumkur covers an area of 58422 sq m and aims to attract people. To achieve this, the building has a unique facade with a folded roof that changes its appearance as the sun moves. This design not only adds to the building’s aesthetic appeal but also makes use of natural light and promotes sustainability. The project showcases an innovative and environmentally conscious approach to architecture, creating a space that is both visually appealing and functional.

Concept & Design Form :

The Art Gallery Concept “FORM FOLLOW FUNCTION” emphasizes the importance of the relationship between form and function in architecture and design. This project applies the principle to create an art gallery out of a hexagon-shaped diamond, which provides an attractive exterior and six distinct zones of space. The folded roof format creates an innovative design that enhances the building’s aesthetic appeal while preventing direct sunlight from damaging artwork. Several openings are provided at the top to maximize daylight utilization throughout the building space without negatively affecting the artwork. The combination of the folded roof format and strategically placed openings provides functional benefits and enhances the building’s visual effect. Overall, the project is an excellent example of the “FORM FOLLOW FUNCTION” principle in action, creating a unique and attractive space for displaying artwork.
