Ornithology research center + Birds Watching Type: Year: Location:
Academic 2018 Lahore, Pakistan
Kasru Bashir Award 2018 Competition across the nation Honorable Mention
Image description: The Botanical garden in Punjab university is in the center of the city. The Botanical garden is not in good condition.
Image description: Ecological destruction by rapid urbanization The arbitrar y boundaries established between birds by humans and urbanization can be transformed by architecture design to remove boundaries between birds and humans. Birds are a significant piece of our urban communities and even in households. Not only do they offer delight through activities like bird watching, observing, and photographing them but birds also symbolize natural and cultural health. These days urban communities are for the most part composed just for people. Advantages for different species are to a great extent overlooked, which causes negative effects on the urban environment.
In order to use birds as a suitable and appropriate model to investigate the various environmental problems. Birds in any ecosystem exist and function as a reflection of their surroundings which the human race is in desperate need to realize. You may find a nest attached under a roof or attached to an electric pole or you may also find a small opening in facades from where birds can habitat and fly.
Image description: This shows the different activities and access mapping. The garden is not much in use because of its condition.
A
Image description: The bird’s research center is placed at the entry of the botanical garden. It will limit the human activity in the birds watching zone.
B
Image description: A trench is proposed before entering the birds watching area. The visitors can only go into underground birds watching zones and towers. People can enjoy bird watching without disturbing birds.
C
Image description: The underground tunnels are proposed below the existing pathways on the ground level to minimize the destruction of flora and fauna.
D
Image description: Researchers and staff can access the garden from the ground. The existing pathway is kept for them.
Biophones Study

Images description: The different types of Bio-phones are studied and designed to observe the birds and trees from underground tunnels.
The burrow is designed in a way that it will use worm harvesting technique so that worms can become outside the earth surface to burrow and that will attract birds towards burrow so visitors can easily observe the birds and burrow will follow the worm harvesting technique by humans will walk in the interior surface of the burrow, by rubbing the walls and vibration of wooden and steel sticks.
Image description: Proposed master scheme to the re-active existing botanical garden of Punjab University by birds watching activities and birds research center.
Master Plan The site is divided into zones. The first zone is declared for the birds research center and other visitor activities for a short period i.e cafe, sitting spaces. The second zone is for birds watching activities. All the birds watching activities are underground. Visitors can enjoy bird watching without disturbing birds. Underground walkways are separated from the ground level by a trench so visitors can not access the garden from ground level. Research center staff can access the garden by a private pathway. Image description: Steal Material Observatory The burrow is designed in a way that it will use worm harvesting technique so that worms can come outside the earth surface and that will attract bird’s towards burrow so visitors can easily observe the birds and burrow will follow the worm harvesting technique by humans will walk in the interior surface of the burrow, by rubbing the walls and vibration of wooden and steal sticks
Master Section Visitors can enjoy the birds watching from underground observatories. The Observatories are specially designed with different chambers, sprays, and materials for the benefit to birds from human presence. The observatories are also designed with the concept of Biophones. The Biophones will allow humans to observe the birds without disturbing them.
The zones strategy is proposed to preserve existing nature and to reactive the un-used botanical garden.

Beyond the Station Type: Year: Location:
Academic 2017 Lahore, Pakistan
BUS TRACK
METRO STATION NO. 27
Key Image description: Existing metro station plan in Lahore
Image description: Site analysis A scenario that can give the experience of an interconnected model of a transit station. The Stations can create value for neighborhoods. It can be much more than a transporting function. The station could be a point of interaction and activities for neighborhoods.
Metro School Masjid Housing Road Sewerage Commerical Factorie Mix use Side walk Service road
Master Plan Parks are proposed on both sides of the road. The existing metro station is located in the center of the road. Ramps from the bus station are connected to the park on each side. Sitting spaces are proposed beside the road as well for waiting area for the next bus or other means of transport. Shops are also proposed under the ramps with central courtyard seating. Pathways are also designed between trees for walking and seating.

Eatery Type: Year: Location:
Academic 2016 Lahore, Pakistan
Royal palm
Mustafabad
Linear Canal
Image description: The connecting pathway is not available to access the canal and both sides of the communities. It is not easily accessible with no physical, visual, or phenomenal connection.
Royal palm
Mustafabad
Canal Image description: Linear Canal road, Lahore. The red color indicates low-income communities and users of the canal. The green color indicates high-income communities and no users of the canal. My concept is to intersect in linear canal to make it more useable for people of Umer and Mustafabad colony. The Canal is the part of their life. They use it for swimming, washing clothes and other activities. The high speed traffic is acting as barriers for people to access the canal. The other side of canal is rich neighborhood. The strategy is to extend the existing railway corridor which is below railway track. This extension of the corridor can be converted in to circulatory spaces with shops, stalls, performance area, screens and other activities.
Image description: On the Royal palm side, open spaces are available. Houses are at a distance with 90 feet wide green belts. People of Royal palm don’t need the Canal. On the other side, on the Mustafabad side, open green spaces are not available. People of Mustafabad use the Canal as green space and for other activities. The only way to go to the Canal is by crossing heavy traffic.
