Waste to Energy +Recycling Plant+ Nantatorium ARCH 704 Design 4: INTEGRATED STUDIO Professor: Stephanie Bayard Project with Ayesha Nathani Exhibition: Wast(ED): Living with Waste conducted by AIA The City That Never Sleeps has a bigger problem than the flashing lights and noisy streets- it’s all of the trash that’s left to sit out on the sidewalks.

New Yorkers produce 26,000 tons of garbage each day, 80% of which goes either to the Fresh Kills landfill or to out-of-state dumps. Eventually destroying a lot of our natural environment and compromising the air quality and health in nearby community.

Our main goal is to draw in the local community members to learn about the effects of trash disposal. To build a connection between the waste and the other programs. Hence, a studio project with a brief to design waste to energy recycling plant with natatorium speculates the opportunities to blur the boundaries between various stages of industrial process of the factory. The formal language of the project involves the Natatorium’s activities spread across, with the goal of providing visitors with an insight into the ongoing industrial processes of WTE and recycling units that are occurring concurrently. The depressions are highly inspired by the contextual residential blocks while the scale of the massing is industrial, keeping in mind the functionality of the machinery. Interior follows the similar architectural language to carve the spaces that allows the users to experience different scale and volumes. The horizontal connectivity of glass bridges throughout the building that forms the critical point of visual connection of programs and the outside.

ECOLOGICAL PERCEPTION A Museum of emotions

ARCH 805 Design 5: EXPERIMENTAL STUDIO Professor: William Macdonald

Experiments in ‘Meta-Affordances’ and other Manifold Manifestations of ‘Ecological Perception/Action in Architecture’ and/or, rather The Museum of Emotions.

Film is a dynamic representational medium offering the ability to collapse time and compose visual narratives frame-by-frame. Like cinematography, architecture engages spaces within the view frame as well as the ambient effects of spaces beyond. In both practices, time may be translated into measures of movement and occupancies of space. Movie emotion, is tightly framed and boundaried but permissive and uncontrolled in content.

The idea was to exchange and fusion the object and subject through a movie sequence and analysing emotions frame by frame. Eventually creating a 3-dimentional architectural form which will derive different emotion in a user . The role of architecture is to enrich an environment and infuse it with emotion through its interaction in space. It possesses the ability to shape space, softening or hardening surfaces, volumes and profiles, generating an ever evolving experience. Allowing the user to see the horrifying beauty and imagine a full spectrum of joyful activities inside spaces that are naturally formed. It can be “mystical” as well as “serene” or “chaotic” and “complex”.

It is but the ideas of forms and spaces.The complexities are visible from the outside. The intersection of planes shows the chaoticness with intertwingling thoughts. The structure looks like a free collage of variegated surfaces and materials. The spaces embrace individuality and celebrated the lonesome. It creates many individual spaces in one large space. It gives us a sense of belonging, where the user perceives the space as an extension of themselves. It emphasizes a provocative assemblage of assorted elements, and spaces, in the case of this project attains a monumental quality.

Light has the ability to create the space that surrounds it, revealing its essence with a power that goes beyond simply illuminating an object; it becomes a means of construction, efficient and emotional, yet completely untouchable. Reflective — Where the design evokes meaning to the user that impacts their experience.The link to the user’s memory and sense of belonging is where the user perceives the space as an extension of themselves.

REGENERATIVE CITY

Housing: Transformation | Addition | Interaction ARCH 703 Design 3: URBAN QUALITIES & MATERIALITIES Professor: James Garrison Project with Jennifer Boswell

Pandemic disrupt everything. Regenerative City presents an approach that allows urban residents to live, work and enjoy in the same premises.

The design studio focus on contemporary aspects of architectural urbanity.

Designing from the outside in, issues such as mixed land use, composite building use, transportation, and environment will be coordinated through the specificities of a building enclosure and site. The studio seeks to explore both organizational and spatial ideas for individual apartment units, configuration, and vertical/horizontal circulation of building sections as well as overall formal ideas.

A city which generates a livable space by celebrating the site’s existing features but also by adding to it. The program comprises of High-rise residential tower with amenities with various possible Housing types (Micro housing/mix unit sizes/lo/lux, etc)-and various amenities which are lacking at present. The project aid to create jobs, and increase interaction and socialization by producing eyes on the street which will allow the site to be self-sustainable for the future generation. Furthermore, design is environmentally responsive, removal of excess carbon through the Carbon Sequestration Process. Also, optimizing natural light and adding green spaces creating a healthy sustainable environment.

IIT SCIENCE & RESEARCH CENTER An Institutional Campus

Architect: STUDIO 3087, INDIA Scope of work: Master Plan development, working drawing and detailing.

A design competition floated by Gujarat Government with a brief to design a institute on a parcel of land measuring 9.8 acres keeping the existing structure intact and creating additional infrastructure which includes studios, classrooms, labs, auditorium and other common amenities with a provision for future expansion. An effective school facility that is responsive to the changing programs of educational delivery, and should provide a physical environment that is comfortable, safe, secure, accessible, well

illuminated, well ventilated, and aesthetically pleasing. Moreover, the classroom layout should be flexible , the design provides a column-free zone, creating an open, flexible space and the structure allows a possible future embedding within the school.

The master plan includes- academic block, faculty block, class rooms, department library, laboratories, boys and girls hostel, convention center, Sports complex, auditorium, cafeteria, and other amenities like swimming pool, open ground, football ground and amphitheater.

The HERMITAGE RETREAT

A weekend home

Architect: STUDIO HUMANE, INDIA Scope of work: Conceptual, Design development, 3D modelling, working drawing, detailing and physical model.

The Hermitage retreat is a compact composition of intricately detailed spatial experiences, a contemporary interpretation of vernacular domains. The site has a panoramic views of the city and mountains The primary aim while designing this house was to provide maximum benefits of the city view and the vast landscape surrounded by the site, while using the sloping topography of the land to its advantage. The linearity in planning is complemented by dynamism in the form. The structure is designed with a concept of |Parallel walls| with all the functional spaces positioned between them.The walls cut through the slopes on the site perpendicularly orienting the entire house in the East- West direction, facing the city and the vast landscape. As a result all the spaces inside enjoy panoramic views of the valley beyond.
