I AM KIRAN RIJAL. AN ARCHITECTURE STUDENT AT CHITWAN ENGINEERING CAMPUS. I HAVE BEEN ALWAYS WONDER BY THE BUILDINGS AND MAN MADE STRUCTURE AROUND ME. I USED TO QUESTION, HOW MAN CAN MAN MADE STRUCTURE CAN BE RELATE TO THE HUMAN USE, AESTHETIC TO THE CITY AT THE SAME TIME CARRIES THE REALTION WITH THE SITE WHERE IT STANDS. LATER I FOUND, IT WAS ARCHITECTURE, THE SCIENCE OF ART THAT COMBINES ALL OF THESE WITH THE CREATIVITY OF ART AND THINKING.

I TRY TO ESTABLISH THE BALANCE RELATION BETWEEN THE PEOPLE, PLACE AND SITE IN MY DESIGN. ALONG WITH DESIGNING A BUILDING IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE SITE, ITS CLIMATE, PEOPLE AND THEIR CULTURE AND RELATION WITH THE BUILDING. I HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH THESE DESIGN APPROACHES i.e; PASSIVE DESIGN, ESTABLISHING A RELATION BETWEEN PEOPLE, PLACE AND PATH IN MY DESIGN.

WHAT I UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE ARCHITECTURE IS, ITS NOT ONLY DESIGNING THE ICONIC OR UTOPIAN, MOREOVER IT SHOULD BE RELATED TO THE SITES, ITS PEOPLE, CULTURE SO THAT BEING UTOPIAN TOO, PEOPLE COULD FOUND THEIR ATTACHMENT WITH THE DESIGN.

CONTENTS LIBRARY RESIDENCE PRIMARY SCHOOL

REAL LIFE PROJECTS

LIBRARY

PLAYING WITH THE VOLUMES OF BLOCKS, IN ORDER TO CREATE THE BALANCE MASSING OF BUILDING.

SITE IS AT SUB-TROPICAL CILMATE:

THE RECESSES IN THE BUILDING CREATES THE MUTUAL SHADING, WHICH RESULTS IN LESS SOLAR HEAT GAIN BY WALLS

ELONGATION OF BUILDING TO NORTHSOUTH ( LESS SURFACE AREA FOR THE DIRECT SUNRAYS)

USE OF EXISTING PEEPAL TREE AT THE SITE AS THE CENTRAL COURTYARD FOT THE LIBRARY

THE GROUND FLOOR CONSITS OF PERIODICAL SECTION, READING SECTION, CHILDREN SECTION WITH LOCKER ROOM

THE CENTRAL OF PERIODICAL SECTION HAS A COURTYARD

COURTYARD AT (1) SEPARATES THE SERVED AND SERVANT AREA

MAKING RECESSES ON THE SOUTHERN WALL, CREATING CARRELS FOR STUDYING

FIRST FLOOR CONSITS OF A NON LENDING BOOK STORE

OPEN READING BALCONY FACING THE EAST DIRECTION, UNDER THE SHADE OF TREES AT CENTRAL COURTYARD

RESIDENCE

THE BUILDING STANDS AT THE SUBTROPICAL CLIMATIC SITE AT BHARATPUR, CHITWAN.

DESIGN APPROACH WAS PASSIVE METHOD OF COOLING THE BUILDING

MUTUAL SHADING, INWARD LOOKING PLANNING

THE BUILDING IS ORIENTED TO EAST DIRECTION , PLACING MOST OF THE SERVANT AREA ON THE WEST AND SOUTH FACADE( STAIR CASE, TOILET, STORES)

THE BUILDING MEETS SOME OF THE PRINCIPLES OF VASTU SASTRA TOO

CREATING RECESSES ON THE BUILDING FOR REDUCING THE SURFACE AREA OF DIRECT HEATING IN THE WALL

RECESSES ON THE WALLS CREATES THE SHADOW AND SHADE CAUSING THE MUTUAL SHADING , PASSIVE APPROACH FOR COOLING IN TERAI

PROVIDING MANY NUMBERS OF OPENINGS ON THE NORTH AND EAST FACADE FOR THE CROSS AIR CIRCULATION AND FOR THE GLARE FREE AMBIENT DAY LIGHTING

USE OF VERTICLE AND HORIZONTAL SHADING DEVICE TO BLOCK THE DIRECT SOLAR HEAT GAIN INSIDE ROOMS FORM THE SCORCHING SUN OF TERAI

PRIMARY SCHOOL

THE SITE WAS AT SUB URBAN ZONE OF BHARATPUR, SO IT WAS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDERED THE LOCAL ARCHITECTURE,

SUB TROPICAL CLIMATE FOR COOL AIR CIRCULATION, AIR PASSAGE WAS CREATED BY MASSING THE BLOCK OF SCHOOL

USE OF THICK STONE LOAD BEARING WALL HELPS IN INCREASING THE TIME LAG, PREVENT SOLAR HEAT GAIN

CENTRAL COURTYARD IN THE PRIMARY BLOCKS ACTS AS THE SHADED SPACES, WHICH IS USED AS PLAYGROUND, THE VEGETATION IN THE COURTAYD HELPS IN CREATING THE MICRO CLIMATE

SLOPE ROOF FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AND MULTIPURPOSE HALL, FOR THE EASY DRAINAGE OF RAINWATER IN HAEVY MONSOON

SLOPE ROOF REFLECTS THE LOCAL ARCHITECTURE AROUND THE SITE, SINCE SITE IS AT SUB URBAN ZONE

INDOOR SPORTS COMPLEX

SITE IS A REGIONAL LEVEL PLAYGROUND LOCATED AT THE CORE OF CITY, IT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE DAILY LIFE OF PEOPLE LIVING IN THE SURROUNDING, IT IS THE COMMON SPACE OF COMMUNITY, FOR GATHERING, LOCAL MARKET, FAIR, CULTURAL ACTIVITIES

SO IT IS IMPORTANT TO MAINTAIN THE EXISTING RELATION OF THE SITE AND PEOPLE OF SURROUNDING.

MULTISPORTS INDOOR HALL

SWIMMING POOL COMPLEX

COMMERCIAL COMPLEX

I HAVE RIED TO TO MAINTAIN THE RELATION OF PEOPLE, PLACE AND PATH THROUGH THE BUILDING, FOR THIS BUILDING CAN BE ACCESS THROUGH THREE SIDE CONNECTED BY A CENTRAL PLAZA SPACE

THERE ARE THREE BLOCKS

1. COMMERICAL COMPLEX AND A INDOOR BADMINTON COURT FOR LOCAL PEOPLES

2. MULTISPORTS INDOOR HALL

3. SWIMMING POOL COMPLEX

LOW COST HOUSING

SITE IS LOACTED AT THE FLOOD ZONE, SO THE PLINTH IS RAISED FROM GROUND

FOR THE PROPER AIR FLOW WITHIN THE BUILDING, A PASSAGE IS CREARTED BETWEEN TWO BLOCKS

THIS PASSAGE CREATES AN OPENING SPACE FOR PEOPLES ACTIVITIES

DURING THE SUMMER DAYS

HAS ONE BEDROOM, A LIVING ROOM ATTACED WITH KITCHEN AND A OUTDOOR TOILET

MATERIALS

THE MIXTURE OF LOCALLY AVAILABLE MUD, STRAW, THATCHES(FIBROUS MATERIAL) AND WATER i.e COB FOR THE WALL

STONE MASONARY IN FOUNDATION

SUSTAINABLE

ECONOMIC

LOCAL SKILL

TO PREVENT THE FAILURE DUE TO STAGNANT WATER IN MONSOON, THICK STONE FOUNDATION IS USED AND THE PLINTH IS RAISED

USE OF BUTTERFLY ROOF, TRYING TO GIVE MODERN AESTHETIC ALSO FOR THE DRAINAGE OF MONSOON RAINFALL

REal LIFE PROJECTS RESIDENCE AT BHARATPUR 4, CHITWAN

IT WAS CHALLENGING TO GO WITH THE CLIENTS REQUIREMENT AS THEY WERE DEMANDING A SPACE FOR PARKING AND KITCHEN GARDEN, IN SITE OF AREA 1093 SQ. AND BUILDING WITH TWO ROOMS AND A KITCHEN AT GROUND FLOOR.

TAKING ORIENTATION OF SITE AS MAJOR CONSIDERATION

TRYING TO AVOID THE DIRECT HEATING FROM SOLAR HEAT ON THE SOUTH FACADE

DAYLIGHTING IN ALL THE ROOMS THROUGH THE WINDOWS

REal LIFE PROJECTS

CLIENT WANTS A BUILDING THAT MUST REFLECT ITS SCALE, PROPORTION TO ITS SURROUNDING BUILT ENVIRONMENT

TO REFLECT ITS SCALE, I TRIED TO PLAY WITH THE COLOR OF THE BUILDING, GIVING A MONOCHROME COLOR FINISH TO THE EXTERIOR HELPS TO REFLECT THE SCALE OF BUILDING

USE OF DOUBLE HEIGHT CEILLING IN LIVING ROOM

SIMPLE FACADE TREATMENT WITH THE USE OF TRADITIONAL DESIGN IN SILL AND LINTEL BAND OF WINDOWS
