SAMSARA Graduate Project
Project Type ...............................Forensic Design Project Studio ARCH 74100..................................... Spring 2021
Instructor ........................ Jerome Haferd & Mitchell Squire SAMSARA is an architectural initiative probing how building design can speculate on and respond to pressing global issues. It champions progressive, well-informed, and creative approaches to tackle the intertwining of social, political, and environmental challenges. Central to this is
the ‘Infinite Truth Cloud’, a metaphorical construct that cor-
relates the nuances of personal truths with the formation of clouds, reflecting the complex interplay of individual beliefs and societal dynamics. This model critiques how architectural practices often oversimplify multifaceted daily problems through a cycle of experimentation and creation.
In applying this concept to my practice, I’ve interwoven my
Indian roots and deep spiritual convictions, confronting the
stark caste disparities in my society. My aim is a spiritually
resonant, egalitarian world where concepts of rebirth and sustainability govern the built environment. The project underscores the transformative power of creative work in
shaping personal identity and emphasizes that self-archi-
tecture is as vital as constructing buildings in today’s world. It’s a call for architects to be as introspective in their roles as they are innovative, ensuring their work resonates with
the cultural and environmental fabric of the 21st century.
Clouds Formed
Rise in sea level in New York
The three states of matter represent three-phase of society, an ice state can be represented as a society where every citizen have strong bond of love and friendship, thus everyone is treated equally with dignity. Water state can be represented as a reality, the social and economic impact act as a catalyst in weakening the bond between the citizens, which allow them freedom and give space for movement. At last, when all the good is destroyed from the world and a society in which there is great suffering or injustice, the society reaches its gas state, where each and every citizen gets maximum freedom and a large space for movement. This socio-economic impact cannot completely vanishfrom the society, thus new humanity floats between water and cloud.

The natural process of cloud formation is based on assumptions. The variety of formations are from people’s own truths taken from outer sources and how they would interpret that information. The cloud is seen as a system of connections determining its character, showing how we practice affects the things that we make.
How can I make more Money?
I hope I get some money from the trash
No fresh air to breath but all people can think about is Money. In India, the richest 10% have 77% of national wealth, the poorest 60% have only 5%.
Clear Social Divide
India is known for its spiritual religions, and we Indians believe that there is a spiritual logic for everything. “After death, every living thing is reborn.” This belief in reincarnation reflects the recycling attitude of poor people who follow Hinduism; thus, recycling waste becomes a part of their religious practice. Additionally, the entrenched caste system often relegates the poor to cleaning waste and recycling as a means of livelihood.

RECREATING A SPACE
TERRACE CLUB Graduate Project
Project Type .....................Adaptive Reuse Studio ARCH 62100.............. Spring 2020
Cities are layered tapestries of diverse urban visions, evolving over time through a
dynamic blend of alteration and integra-
tion. Such transformations shape the iden-
tity of metropolises, where old structures are ingeniously repurposed to fit contem-
porary needs, thus enriching their unique character and historical narrative. In our architectural role, we champion this ongoing metamorphosis, merging past and present.
‘Terrace Club,’ an athletic center emblematic of adaptive reuse, stands at the juncture
of 7th Avenue and 38th Street in Midtown Manhattan. It offers facilities for fitness and leisure within a verdant atrium, leveraging nature’s therapeutic vistas. The center’s design ensures that activities unfold on
terraced floors cascading into the atrium, fostering a vibrant communal atmosphere.
This project is a celebration of historical integration, where new structures breathe life into the old, exemplifying our commitment to
the city’s architectural heritage and future.

ENGAGING SUBNATURALS Graduate Project
Project Type ............................Public Toilet Studio ARCH 62100.............. Spring 2020
Instructor ..................... John Cunningham In cities, we often admire desirable natural elements like sun and trees, yet over-
look ‘subnaturals’ like mud, smoke, and crowds, inherent to urban life. Architecture
typically distances us from these raw, uncontrollable aspects, but their omnipres-
ence raises the question of integrating them harmoniously into our surroundings.
‘ENGAGING SUBNATURALS’ addresses this by reimagining a public toilet next
to a playground in a New York City waterfront park. The project harmonizes with
the landscape, seamlessly integrating
into the park’s topography. Its continuous curved surfaces not only facilitate accessi-
ble public facilities from the street but also immerse users in the essence of urban
subnaturals, fostering an appreciation of these often-overlooked aspects of city life.

MERGE HOUSE Graduate Project
Project Type ...............Single Family Home Studio ARCH 61100.................... Fall 2019 Instructor ...................... Bika Sibila Rebek
The MERGE HOUSE is a home in upstate
New York designed for a couple, where the husband is a photographer and the wife is a musician; they have two children. Both are
creative individuals with specific requirements. The design includes a studio space
for each. The husband requested a room with a dramatic play of light, while the wife
desired a small amphitheater for live performances, requiring good acoustics in her studio space. Their primary requirement was
a house that merges with the natural topog-
raphy and blends seamlessly with nature.
COEXISTANCE...CASTLEFIELD ART CENTER
Undergraduate Project
Project Type.....Commercial / Urban Design Studio.................................... Spring 2015
Instructor .......................... George Epolito This project explores creative solutions to
the metaphysical aspects of urban ruins, focusing on Manchester’s historical and future identities. It investigates ‘Defunct Systems of Movement as Non-Place: Castlefield Viaducts,’ using theory to challenge
physical and intellectual boundaries. Inspired by Marc Augé’s ‘Essay on Non-plac-
es,’ the work reinterprets concepts of
placelessness within Castlefield. Once a bustling hub during the Industrial Revolu-
tion, Castlefield’s canal, the world’s first in-
dustrial canal built in 1764, now symbolizes the area’s lost identity. The project propos-
es revitalizing this identity through stopover markets along the canal, transforming it into a vibrant business network. This aims to
redefine the canal’s journey as a ‘place’ for canal boatmen, contrasting with the ‘nonplace’ of the city center. The project showcases an ability to merge complex histori-
cal meanings with architecture, challenging
conventional boundaries and proposing a
coexistence of past and future... in theory.
“.....The same place can be looked upon as a plac
te a t o r e w n e h W
t f i i h s e e s e w
ce by some people and a non-place by others.....”

Boatmans love for art was clearly visible on my visit to castlefield. They needed a space to create more artwork and a platform to showcase their work.

STREET PLUG-IN ART Undergraduate Project
Project Type...................3D Art Installation Studio.................................. Summer 2014
Instructor ................................ Amy Hanley Plug-in street art demonstrates how combining small artistic elements with infor-
mation can enhance spaces and shape communities.
This
concept
involves
easy-to-assemble, temporary 3D street
art installations with minimal environmental impact. The installation serves as a
novel medium to communicate green issues, fostering community and environmental connection. It conveys messages
like ‘start today save tomorrow,’ encour-
aging home gardening in limited spaces. The fabrication process encompassed construction,
infographic
design,
and
planting, each requiring teamwork and
learning. Post-fabrication, we interacted with the public to share knowledge
about sustainable urban living, promoting recycling and home gardening. We
distributed plants in recycled pots, inspiring people to begin gardening at home.

Redevelopment of Dharavi Professional Project
Project Type..............................Affordable Housing
Project Phase..........................Design Competition Architect ......................................... Ashish Jaiswal Address.................715 Laurel Ave, Menlo Park, CA Slum redevelopment is a pressing global issue,
particularly in developing and underdeveloped nations. The Dharavi slum in Mumbai, one of Asia’s
most extensive slums, has long stood in the spot-
light. This project demanded thorough research to devise a space beneficial for Dharavi’s residents.
At Art in Arch, I contributed to the Dharavi redevelopment, a competitive project in collaboration with VEGA building. Within our four-member team, we
aspired to revolutionize construction performance
by integrating Vega’s system into the current building methods. Our analyses emphasized the com-
munity’s essence in Dharavi, guiding us to design
communal spaces and affordable retail areas. The architectural strategy called for a straightforward
structural system to facilitate economical housing solutions. My role was significant in the design
phase, where I was responsible for creating various project-related diagrams, drawings, animations, and graphics.
Formation of Green
Site is divided in 6 equal grids with the buildable zone. The front grid is for the green space
Commercial Space
The remaining 5 grid left will be the built-up mass at lower level (Commercial). These 5 grids were further divided in 9 equal parts.
Tower Formation
The central part of the main grid is used for the built-up mass at upper level (Residential).
Formation of Units
Built-up mass is further divided with the help of central core and corridors to form 16 welling units.
Internal Street Corridor act as a lateral connectionbetween core and units.
Internal square The central core act as community space. the 4 wings are connected with the corridor. This make design structurally efficient and stable
