ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

This thesis is the culmination of reasearch and design for which I would like to express my profound gratitude and deepest indebtedness to my guide, Prof. Pallavi Mahida for her valuable guidance, kindness and patience. She has helped me during the period with her vast knowledge and impeccable experience. It was great to have her as my guide for my thesis at College of Architecture, SVIT, Vasad. Without her encouragement, it would not have been possible for this study to achieve successful completion. Sincere words of gratitude to the jury member’s for their valuable suggestions and annotations.

I would like to express my appreciation to the faculty members for their esteemed guidance throughout this design thesis work. I take this time to express my gratitude to the librarian Mr.Rajendra Patel and all administrative staff for their constant support. Last but not the least I thank our Principal Prof. Pragnesh Shah for his constant support and encouragement.

Above all, I reverve the patronage and moral support extended with love, by my parents whose passionate encouragement made it possible for me to complete this project and my friend Senorita Soni for her keen interest and help throughout the course of this design process. I owe it all to Almighty God for granting me the wisdom, health and strength to undertake this research task and enabling me to its completion.

2.1

History of Pimpri Chinchwad

Pimpri Chinchwad developed from the rural suburbs of Pune, as a result of rapid industrialization post independence.

It is located North-west of Pune city, within the extended city limits of Pune and falls under Pune Metropolitan Region (PMR) established in 1970. However, the region has it’s own municipal corporation, Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) covering 131sqm and size, the third of PMC, Pune (Pune Municipal Corporation).

Pimpri Chinchwad is a home to vast variety of industrial establishments. It is well known for its automotive and manufacturing industry and is known as detroit of the East.

The decision to restrict industrial growth in Bombay, which had reached a saturation point, pushed Pune towards industrialization, as the spill over-units were attracted to the city.

Three triggers Erstwhile Bombay was divided into Gujarat & Maharashtra (Bombay became the capital)

13

Setting up of new industries was prevented in Metropolitan Bombay.

Establishment of MIDC (Maharashtra industrial Development Corporation)

Pattern - Axial/linear development along Bombay-Pune road and railway corridor.

Reason - Pune’s proximity links with Bombay, its educated and skilled workforce and availability of basic Infrastructure.

2.2 Architecture of Poona

This gracious building is an example of the architecture in 1920s. It has a special personality and hols its own amidst the modern multi storeyed glitzy buildings next to it which threaten to overshadow it.

Architecture of Pune Pune has a variety of architectural styles including Indo-sarcenic, Baroque and maratha style of architecture.

The real development of the city traces back to the rule of Balaji Baji Rao. Pune came to be adorned with numerous ghats, temples, wadas and peths.

Pune, developed very rapidly and became a model for development of the 18th and 19th century capitals for Maratha sardars. Kasba peth was the centre of Pune. During the time, the city was well established and divided into smaller wards known as Peths.

16

City Centre - A Retail-tainment Centre

Architecture then, in Pune combined Peths, wadas, temples, and ghats.

Around the palace, stately wadas belonging to various grandees came up. Furthermore, peths were changing with the influx of migrant workers.Peth is a well laid out stone paved main road, with one or two wadas of the well to do family and some huts. As migrant traders, workers were enticed to come in and settle, the sheth would alot spaces for shops, houses and workshops. This is how a locality was build up.

NOW

Architecture now, in Pune has been a demand for ostentatious designs, and for more modern comfort.

The facades are usually a mixture of florid ornamentation without relevance to the older buildings around the city’s historical architectural fabric. Of late, a new kind of symbolism has evolved for commercial structures, a post modern electicism, where European classical elements, tuscan and corinthian columns reproduced in Rcc seem to depict corporate or commercial hubris.

2.3

Culture of the city Pune has acquired a cosmpolitan identity now but yet represents an indegenious marathi culture. It is considered as cultural capital of Maharashtra.

Here, education, arts and crafts and theatres are given due prominence. Pune reflects a blend of traditions with modernity. The culture of Pune is well reflected through its people, language and cuisine.

The most common language spoken by majority of the population is Marathi. People belonging to different castes, creeds, religions and economic backgrounds can be found here. With setting of software companies and professional institutions in Pune, the city has gotten a multi-ethnic personality. With more than 60% of the population to be students, the quiet town known as Pensioner’s paradise, became the “Oxford of the East”.

The city has rich deep roots of history, which can be seen in various regional as well as national festivals celebrated here. Besides, in the recent years the city has also emerged as a major education and IT industry hub, which has led to the influx of large number of students and professionals here
