HI , I'M NITHYA, AND WELCOME TO MY PORTFOLIO ! EVEN AS A KID WATCHING TV , I'VE BEEN CAPTIVATED BY SPACES, THEIR DESIGN, INTERIORS, AND HOW THEY SHAPE OUR EMOTIONS. THIS FASCINATION LED ME TO PURSUE A DEGREE IN ARCHITECTURE, WHERE I DISCOVERED MY PASSION FOR THE HIDDEN INTRICACIES BEHIND EVERY BUILDING, FROM ITS STRUCTURE TO THE FINEST DETAILS. I’M ALWAYS EAGER TO EXPLORE NEW IDEAS LEARN NEW SKILLS AND PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF DESIGN.

LOCATED IN KODATHI, OR SARJAPUR ROAD, THIS CAMPUS FOR A LEADING INDIAN TECHNOLOGY FIRM HOUSES 25,000 SEATS. ITS BUILT ON A LAND AREA OF ABOUT 20 ACRES ON A OVERALL LAND AREA OF 50 ACRES. TOTAL BUILT UP AREA IS ABOUT 4.4 MILLION SQUARE FEET. THE CAMPUS BOASTS OF THE LATEST AND CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGIES LIKE DOUBLE SKIN FAÇADE, NATURALLY VENTILATED SPACES, UNDERFLOOR AIR DISTRIBUTION, ZERO WATER DISCHARGE, RAIN WATER HARVESTING AND MANY OTHER SUSTAINABLE FEATURES. PROJECT HAS ACHIEVED IGBCS HIGHEST PLATINUM RATING.
INTERNS LEARNING:
MASTERPLANNING OF THE ENTIRE CAMPUS WHICH CLEARLY SEGREGATES HUMAN AND VEHICLE INTERACTION
STUDY OF THE DOUBLE SKIN FAÇADE AND ITS PROS, CONS AND ECONOMICS
STUDY OF OTHER DESIGN FEATURES, SHADING ELEMENTS AND LANDSCAPE
PARKING STRATEGY TO ACCOMMODATE A LARGE NUMBER OF CARS (ABOUT 6000)
AESTHETIC
INTRICATELY DESIGNED FACADE ENVELOPE, CENTRAL SPINE AND PODIUM SPACES ADD GREATLY TO THE OVERALL AESTHETICS OF THE CAMPUS

PLENTY OF GREEN POCKETS AMONGST THE TALL STRUCTURES AND ON THE PODIUM LEVEL ACTS AS A BREADTHING SPACE
IT PARK MASSING AND FEATURES
• THE OFFICE FLOOR PLATES ARE ORIENTED WITH THE LONGER FACADES FACING NORTH AND SOUTH. TO MAXIMIZE DAYLIGHT INTO THE WORKSPACE , THE BUILDING WIDTH IS RESTRICTED TO 21M.
• TWO SUCH UNITS WHICH ARE 21M WIDE ARE COMBINED BY A SINGLE CORE ROUGHLY GENERATING A H-SHAPED BUILDING PROFILE – 55M WIDE,THE LENGTH OF WHICH IS DETERMINED BY ITS LOCATION ON SITE.
• THIS AIDS GROUPING OF BUILDINGS AND ENSURING DAYLIGHT INTO EACH WORKSPACE AREA.
• ALL COMMON AREAS SUCH AS LOBBIES AND PANTRY ARE PLACED ON THE EAST-WEST ACCESS AND ARE NATURALLY VENTILATED SPACES
• THIS TOWER IS THEN PLACED ON A PODIUM 2.5 – 3.5 FLOOR HIGH WHICH ACCOMMODATES ALL THE COMMON FACILITIES AND STILT PARKING AREA.
SERVICES
ON SITE SERVICES TUCKED AT THE BACK OF THE SITE SO AS TO SERVE FUTURE EXPANSION AS WELL AND MAINTAIN AESTHETICS & FUNCTION
ORIENTATION
PLACED SO AS TO REDUCE THERMAL HEAT GAIN AND REDUCE COOLING COSTS.
PLANS AND FACADE DETAILS
DOUBLE SKIN VENTILATED FACADE TILE AND LOUVERS
TERRACOTTA TILE
• THE TYPICAL TOWER LEVELS FOR THE NORTH FACADE, THE EXTERNAL SKIN IS PROJECTED BY 300MM.8 TYPES OF MODULES WERE DEVELOPED FOR THE SAME.
• THE LOUVERS IN EACH MODULE ARE PLACED SUCH THAT THE VISION PANE AT THE EYE LEVEL IS LEAST OBSTRUCTED.
CURTAIN WALL
• THE CURTAIN PANEL IS INSET FROM THE BUILDING LINE BY 2M.
• CURTAIN WALL IS PROPOSED FOR 3-4 TYPICAL FLOORS AT THE LOWER LEVELS OF THE TOWER WITHOUT EXTERNAL SKIN. SLAB PROJECTION OF 300MM IS PROPOSED ABOVE THE CURTAIN WALL.

3. WINDOW HEIGHT : 1300 MM
4. LIGHT SHELF FROM FFL : 2400 MM
MATERIAL STUDY
DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELLS
PROJECT : SWISS-TECH CONVENTION CENTER, SWITZERLAND
THESE ARE KNOWN AS ORGANIC SOLAR CELLS, THEY ABSORB LIGHT VIA AN ORGANIC DYE AND EXTRACT ENERGY FROM SUNLIGHT USING PHOTOSYNTHESIS, AS A PLANT DOES WITH CHLOROPHYLL.
WHILE LARGE SCALE GLASS FACADES OFTEN APPEAR AS MONOTONOUS, SMOOTHLY REFLECTIVE SURFACES, THE DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELLS, ALSO KNOWN AS “GRATZEL CELLS” ARE BEAUTIFULLY FASHIONED ALONG THE WEST FACADE AT THE SWISS-TECH CONVENTION CENTRE. A TOTAL OF 300 SQM OF GLASS MODULES WITH SOLAR CELLS IN YELLOW,GREEN AND RED HUES WERE INSTALLED.
THE PROJECT HAS A FLOOR AREA OF 14165 M2
ANGLED FULL STOREY DUAL GLASS PANELS IN NARROW STRIPS COVER 300 SQUARE METERS OF DYE PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS ARE INTEGRATED INTO THE WESTERN FAÇADE OF THE BUILDING. THIS CONSTITUTES THE FIRST APPLICATION OF THIS TECHNOLOGY ON A PUBLIC BUILDING. THE TRANSLUCENT PANELS MAKE USE OF AN INVENTION BY MICHAEL GRÄTZEL, A RESEARCHER AT EPFL. APART FROM BEING TRANSLUCENT, THE ANGLE OF INCIDENCE OF LIGHT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO THE CELLS, WHICH CAN BE VERTICALLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT ANY LOSS IN PERFORMANCE.IN ADDITION TO GENERATING ELECTRICITY FROM RENEWABLE SOURCES, THEY PROTECT THE BUILDING FROM DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND THUS REDUCE THE NECESSITY FOR USING COOLING ENERGY.THIS COULD BE A FIRST STAGE TOWARDS THEIR MORE WIDESPREAD PRODUCTION AND USE.
DETAIL STUDY
UNDER FLOOR AIR DISTRIBUTION
UNDERFLOOR AIR DISTRIBUTION (UFAD) IS AN AIR DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY FOR PROVIDING VENTILATION AND SPACE CONDITIONING IN BUILDINGS AS PART OF THE DESIGN OF A HVAC SYSTEM. UFAD SYSTEMS USE AN UNDERFLOOR SUPPLY PLENUM LOCATED BETWEEN THE STRUCTURAL CONCRETE SLAB AND A RAISED FLOOR SYSTEM TO SUPPLY CONDITIONED AIR TO SUPPLY OUTLETS (USUALLY FLOOR DIFFUSERS), LOCATED AT OR NEAR FLOOR LEVEL WITHIN THE OCCUPIED SPACE. AIR RETURNS FROM THE ROOM AT CEILING LEVEL OR THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE HEIGHT ABOVE THE OCCUPIED ZONE.
HEAT TRANSFER PATHWAYS IN UFAD SYSTEM
UFAD LEAKAGE INTO THE SPACE, CONTRIBUTING TO COOLING

ADVANTAGES
• 62°F SUPPLY AIR TEMPERATURE
•
• REDUCES OPERATING COST ON CHILLER
• • EASY & FLEXIBLE ON MODIFICATION
• • REDUCE SLAB-TO-SLAB HEIGHT
• • REDUCE RUN LENGTHS
• • PROMOTES REUSE OF MATERIALS
• • WIRE & CABLE ONLY WHERE IT IS NEEDED
• • REDUCED DUCTWORK
• • ELIMINATES DROP-CEILING
LIMITATIONS
• NEW AND UNFAMILIAR TECHNOLOGY
• • PERCEIVED HIGHER COSTS
• • LACK OF INFORMATION, DESIGN GUIDELINES, AND EVALUATION METHODS
• • THERMAL DISCOMFORT
• • PLENUM LEAKAGE ENERGY CONSUMPTION
OPERATING POWER CONSUMPTION BY HVAC SYSTEM 0.42 KW /TR
OPERATING POWER CONSUMPTION / AREA 90WATTS / HR / SQ.M
UFAD LEAKAGE THAT DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE TO COOLING, LEADING TO WASTED INCREASED FAN ENERGY.

MUSEUM OF COSMOS
Typology : Museum
Location: Ulsoor lake , Banglore
Area Of Site : 12,ooo sqm
The design of the space museum is envisioned as a captivating and immersive experience that transports visitors into another reality.
The design was developed by placing the observatory at the highest point in the site and the planetarium at the lowest while the rest of the functions were planned around these two spaces as if they were two planets revolving around each other.
The displays and experience zones provide a seamless flow of information and interaction.

SCHOOL
Typology : Educational
Location: TK Falls , Banglore
Area Of Site : :33,ooo sqm
The Design Institute is set in the lush forests near TK Falls, Bengaluru. The institute takes advantage of the natural surroundings, where a stream flows down from the falls and intersects the site.
The challenging, heavily contoured terrain of the location became the focal point of my design approach, emphasizing how to effectively design in such demanding environments.
The design strategy also involves collabrative learning and benefits of a central courtyard.
