SEMESTER - V 4

This project is a Complex building dedicated to sports activities for training purposes. It has an Olympic sized swimming pool, table tennis, indoor badminton, and other various sports.

The project had a requirement for large span open spaces and huge clear spans.

The design of this proposed project has been inspired by the design philosophies of Ar. Frank O Gehry.

The initial form of this structure was inspired by paper models. The idea was further developed to create an inverted courtyard to give a sense of open space inside a closed-off structure. The transparent roof material helps create a visual aid towards the idea of a more spacious interior space

FASHION DES. INST |

SEMESTER - VI 8

The proposal is for a Fashion Design Institute at Mumbai.

The project was to create a studentfriendly campus with various amenities for better physical and mental health of the students.

The zoning of this proposal is vertical and scattered, where every classroom and studio has a shared open terrace.

Such pockets of open space help create a calmer environment with better interaction with nature.

Institutional designs have been the same concrete, insipid, pro-functional approaches where the adaptation of a new methodology hasn’t been implemented much to the scale where the attitude towards the design and planning of the structure could directly lead to positive impacts on academic performance.

SITE LIMITS & AREA STATEMENT PLOT SIZE: 230.0M x 130.0M PLOT AREA: 29900 SQ.M.

A vast number of studies have shown the positive effects of open spaces in various aspects of education and lifestyle. Open / Green spaces are a big part of our concrete fabric, giving it the breath-ability it needs.

Incorporation of such spaces in the design and planning could ensure better fruition of academic goals and raise curiosities towards other aspects of society.

SITE ACCESS

Split open spaces at the core elements of plan

Traditional integrations of open spaces are included in the form of courtyards.

This has an indirect approach towards them with the intermediary between the open space and function being a passage space or rooms.

Instead of such an approach, which is still pro-function but lacks the direct access needs to be modified. Open spaces at the cellular level of the planning design i.e., split up open spaces that can cater to two smaller design functions, as shown in figures above.

PUBLIC LIBRARY |

SEMESTER - IX 16

Public libraries are to serve the needs of various population including young children, students, professionals, and elders. Although public libraries serve the public at large, they are used primarily by closed vicinity members and secondarily by members in immediately connected areas.

A Public library is more than a collection of books.

It serves as an interactive multimedia centre designed to support learning and social cohesion.

MASSING

Bioplastics are plastics made from renewable biomass sources such as starches, cellulose or other biopolymers, that offer sustainable alternatives to plastics derived from fossil fuels. The bioplastic used in the ArboSkin project is called Arboblend and is produced by the German firm, Tecnaro, by combining different biopolymers such as lignin – a by-product of the wood pulping process – with natural reinforcing fibres. Thermoformable sheets of bioplastics will represent a resource-efficient alternative [to oilbased plastics, glass, or metal] in the future, as they combine the high malleability and recyclability of plastics with the environmental benefits of materials consisting primarily of renewable resources.

SEMESTER - VIII 24

The project is a more in-depth understanding of computational design and it’s applications in real-time.

The project highlights the design of a Funicular Shell structure using computational software like Rhino and Rhino Vault. The project is a Stud farm that includes a pavilion and a multi-purpose lawn.

The Project is under construction.

WEsearch lab recently concluded their experimental study on ‘Waffle Structure as Canopy’ at CEPT University, Ahmedabad’s Summer Winter School (SWS) initiative. Waffle structures – technically known as stereotomy of solid geometry – have their origin in industrial design for their usefulness in quick prototyping of complex surfaces and volumes. In few cases, waffle structures become the final embodiment of an architectural project, Metropol Parasol by Jurgen Mayer being one of the examples.

Every canopy was controlled at three meta-levels as following : 1. The polygonal mesh which controls the extent and macro shape of the canopy, 2. The smooth surface which controls the curvature and micro shape of the canopy, and..

3. The waffle assembly which controls the distribution and depth (or conversely, thickness of canopy) of ribs.
