There are several important arts institutions along the left bank of the creek. The Barge manufactory connects many such institutions and old warehouses, becoming almost like a missing tooth in what could potentially become a small arts district.
This area houses some large warehouses in relatively good condition, which were repurposed to accomodate barge building facilities. These, when they reach their end , can be redeveloped, with the street-side of the property to become a culinary arts institution which partners with the urban greenhouse operations. Students at the culinary school could also find housing here.

Deptford creek may be under threat now – from things like pollution, from cars, and from thoughtless development. But it has a brighter, greener future ahead of it, a future that will recapture that vibrant, innovative, and undeniably east-London spirit.

The studio focused on the industrial land of Interbay area in Seattle. The current use separates the two adjoining neighborhoods of Queen Anne and Magnolia and is heavily occupied by large surface parking areas and defunct industrial spaces. The area also falls under mandatory housing affordability zone, but is majorly laced with single family houses.

The project explored environmental, infrastructural, and economic linkages through tailoring metaphors to bring together areas of Queen Anne and Magnolia. The project also tries to address liquefaction and anticipated sea level rise.

Canopy grounds enclose various terraces tucked into skyscrapping evergreen tree. These terraces hold mixed used functions embroidered amongst the existing fabric with interesting details of ramps and mobility networks.
The Marsh living is a submersed experience meant to be flooded. The existing industrial seams stretch out from the tiered train tracks, which after sea level impact reminisces past like the ‘Seattle Underground’.
Constructed Wetlands lace these older industrial lands with lively residential communities to curate a different immersive experiences around the boardwalks.
The Boardwalks create a unique slow moving commercial and retail mix-use experience beside aggressive landscape systems.

Imagined as a rhinestone sewn onto the fabric, the drumlins can be seen as the focus of the Original Olmsted Park ring.
These drumlins bring together the four neighbourhoods together through the vast green lung.
The drumlins are built on a landfill that currently suffers from high levels of toxicity. The landscape from the drumlins aggresively anchors and mitigates toxicity. This also allows the city to reclaim a landmass which otherwise is not employable,

The city of Bharuch has experienced about 2000 years of cultural and infrastructural transition, recorded through the old town and existing literal archives to discover several undocumented paths in history. Despite a strong cultural presence, the city has no identity of its own.
The city evolved along the River Narmada, and laced public spaces network along the river edge, which experience disuse today. The public spaces and the heritage district are on a verge of turning into a necropolis within the acropolis. The research addresses the depleting urban fabric by repurposing and inculcating a thought towards an identity of the city.

The design utilises the existing Library and the Civil Hospital to open into a quadrangle which houses small conversational pockets.
The amphitheatre celebrates the performing culture of the city and desembles to create another extension of the Water tank Plaza. The Exhausts of the ward tank create interesting patterns for circulation.
The galleries beside the ward tank provide an extension to the ward tank plaza creating a seamless places of activity around the space. Meanwhile, the greenscape directs the user along the fort wall while gradually descending the site.

Software used : ArchiCAD, Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, AutoCAD
Initially, the mills in the newly independent India represented a platform to express. beyond obvious economic self-sufficiency. The 8-acre land is today imagined as a statue of Shivaji and a musuem.
The design interpretation analyzes the exclusivity of new proposed program and uses commemoration to imagine a space that truly represents the site context and the people
EXISTING SITE
WHAT ITS GOING TO BE
-- memorial that commemorates the life and work of Shivaji Maharaj
-- supportive functions such as visitor centre buildings, a memorial garden, a library, food court, and convention centre.
The existing site houses several dilapidated structures of the old mill. Due to weak foundation and structural system, any possible reuse can possess a risk to life.
The site is to be cleared to incorporate new functions
| the commemoration through spaces (circulation)
The program reminisces the freedom struggle and the conditions thereafter. Naturally, the commemoration is done in two parts. Experiences repeat throughout the structure and renders a feeling of deja-vu to inculcate a thought process.
3 2 1
The first memorial directs the user through a palpable sense of supression and liberation
1. Suppression through the long flight of stairs 2. Hope through the flashes of light near midlanding 3. Liberation through the escape route
4. Repeating and reliving the experience one continues to experience in day to day life depicted emotions of confusion and anxiety.
The second memorial directs the user through a intangible confused period.
