02 Yale Art gallery.

Expansion Studio

Site Area: 670000 sq.m

Site Location: Yale University, New Haven, CT

Yale University Art Gallery is the oldest university art museum in the western hemisphere, it houses a major encyclopedic collection of art in several interconnected buildings on the campus of Yale University in New Haven. The new gallery was designed by Louis Kahn, built in 1953. Gallery embarked on a major renovation of all three of its buildings. This renovation and expansion enhanced the Gallery’s role as one of the nation’s most prominent teaching institutions. Critically assessing the main contextual aspects that shaped our buildings after this renovation, we have come to a stage where we can define the most important ones which have directed us to focus on the new gallery.

Before

The Zonning and connectivity of the building is done in such a way that the most active space is concentrated on the center through-out the new and the old art gallery.

The classroom was built to create an interactive space between the interior and exterior and it has a view of the under used sculpture garden, providing a lively access to this garden is one of the reason of having the classroom situated where it is.

The aim was to design an interactive environment for people’s well being, so that it can reduce their visual stimulation and fatigue and give them a calming environment in the middle of the gallery.

Before Expansion

After Expansion

The parts shaded in blue are the proposed expansion. We are breaking the continous plan of the exhibition spaces and providing calm spaces and it is followed in the second, third and fourth plans. The second and third floors, now have exposed facade on the southwest side, for more natural light to get in. It is tucked by alluminium louvers which are at an angle , so that the direct sun light can reflect off them and get into the building. For the fourth floor, we have designed a circular skylight, following the shapes used by louis kahn, for natural light and a seemless look which can be very thereputic for people suffering from fatigue. This area leads you into a trail which follows around the existing building like a parasite attached to a structure. This whole trail is meant to be an interactive design.

All these spaces are connected by a body of alluminium louvers which stimulate your touch. which also is corrosion ressistant, can be heat treated and is light in weight. It also makes an excellent sustainable material, which makes it a good design for resources and energy.Having this expansion can help provide adaptability of the building space in these change of times as well as help discover occupant engagement that influences behaviour. Our main concept of this expansion is to ensure people experience as little fatigue as possible, effective steps to reduce this state need to be taken, these include keeping to a designated path, taking breaks and exiting the museum before they become too exhausted.

03 Staff Housing.

Housing Design Studio

Site Area: 670000 Sq.m

Site Location: Sabarmati Railway Station, Ahmedabad

NHSRCL is implementing the project of high-speed train corridor between Ahmedabad and Mumbai. The Sabarmati Terminal of the country’s first bullet train corridor will also be a first of its kind multimodal transport hub and a one-stop gateway. The task was to design staff housing for the railway staff. The housing was sub divided into several group and each group having different way of living depending on their designation, income, life style and literacy.

A well networked connectivity at the cluster as well as units level. A concept was derived from the game Jenga. It is the block game in which the blocks are to be removed in such a way that the structure is not disturb. In the same way the concept was of subtracting and rearranging the blocks. The subtraction of the blocks gives some breathing spaces and cantilever spaces. The blocks are stacked on one another in such a way that it creates the small pockets in between the blocks. Landscaping was done in those pocket which acts as the breathing space between the units in the blocks.

The clusters are designed according to hierarchy that is class one officers, class two officers, class three officers and class four officers. Where cluster 1 & 2 are for class three and class four officers. the blocks are stacked on one another in such a way that it creates the small pockets that interlinked two classes and form the community.

Where cluster 3 is for class one and class two officers. the placement of blocks are done in such a way that two different individual are well connected which together form the community. the units are placed in such a way that each individual gets green pocket and are well connected with nature. Which enhance the life quality and natural living experience in concrete jungle.

For Class 1 people 3BHK were allotted, for Class 2 and Class 3 2BHK were allotted but there was difference in the area, for Class 4 1 BHK were allotted. Every single person can get the benefits of the facilities in the housing was the main aim of the housing. Not a single person can feel left out on the basis of their designation.

It was to design railway staff housing quarters for different class of people in Ahmedabad city where biggest site constrain was 155 tress in the site and without cutting the single tree the housing was to be designed . The segregation was to be done according to the designation of the railway staff in such a way that they could maintain their privacy.

While the top floors are occupied with private office spaces. These Break of the traditional cuboid high-rise structure emphasizes social and environmental integrity over economic aspects that usually overpower the design decisions.

Each top floors have small open to sky terrace spaces, which provides a zone of fresh breathing pockets for the employees from the stressful environment of the corporate office. These small niches encourage social interactions. These staggered terrace spaces also help to get natural light into interiors, helping in reducing the mechanical load of the overall building.

Mr.Manhar Patel’s Residence

Single family residence

‘The Parnkunj’ is a private sinlge family residence in middle of the dense urban fabric of the Ahmedabad city. Client wanted to have house, which is away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

As an architect we decided to built the house at the far end of the lot with landscape in the front side. The intentional choice of dense plantation in the landscape provides buffer from the road. There are two water bodies which create micro climate and helps in hot and dry climate of ahmedabad. The water bodies are placed in such way that we get direct view of it from the living room and dianing space.
