Rima Sachdeva

rimasach@andrew.cmu.edu Growing up in Gurgaon, my exposure to architectural wonders was limited. The buildings around me were dull, grey, and lacked aesthetics. However, the summer of 2018 gave me the opportunity to expand my horizons. I visited the most picturesquely built structures like the Opus by Zaha Hadid and the Gherkin by Norman Foster and Ken Shuttleworth. This inspired me to observe the architectural wonders in India, and I later re-visited the Taj Mahal and Iron Pillar.

These experiences showed me how essential visual stimulus is for an aspiring artist, augmenting my desire to make my environment more beautiful.

The following winter I volunteered at a Primary School, located in an area surrounded by tiny shanties lacking basic amenities and infrastructure. Learning about their circumstances, made me realize the dire need for urban planning in India. I realized the value of affordable, efficient, and sustainable use of available resources, when designing houses in rural areas.

Site Analysis Squirrel Hill is an area located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It consists of tree lined residential streets, a business district, educational institutions, and public parks. Squirrels were so numerous the Native Americans are said to have given the name “Squirrel Hill” to the hill.

Grafting Connections: Taking over Squirrel Hill Throughout the semester, I unpacked the street scape as sites of opportunities focusing on how people, matter, and flux are connected through the notions of communication. To start out my explorations, I unpacked the rituals around a telegraph, how tapping, sounds, and people are connected. I used this to frame how my site the street of Murray avenue acts as a zone where various parts of the urban ecosystem such as birds, squirrels, objects, climate, and humans make contact. Building Facades, windows, doors, sidewalks, urban furnitures, electric poles, and streets becomes means for dialogues

The project uses this understanding to reclaim electric poles into a new infrastructure for territorial inhabitations, including homes for birds, play scape, and bus rests.

By reclaiming electric poles into spaces for co-inhabitation, my project explores how these ordinary leftover infrastructure can imagine new small scale forms of architecture. s St

Through the study of these invisible implied territorial zones created by claiming street objects, the project attempts to recreate new strategic zones of street connections to elevate new relationships.

The structure consists of three modules. As the structure grows in sections, the module becomes narrower and smaller allowing for smaller members of the ecosystem to claim their space on the street. This proposal tells the story of how architecture attempts to weave social-ecological relationships dealing with modular growth in reclaiming public territories.

Chez Pittsburgh Our design is derived from our chef, Alice Waters’s ideology.

Alice Waters is an author, food activist, and founder of chez Panisse in Berkeley, California. We focused on three aspects of Alice Waters ideology:

Firstly, Alice Waters believes in encouraging local vendors hence our design consists of an educational farm that attracts the vendors and establishes a connection to the building.

Secondly, she believes in connectivity and community engagement therefore we connected the educational and public space creating a dialogue between the two, even allowing the public to witness the learning happening in this space.

Lastly, Waters believes in reflecting on the culture of the space therefore our design will reflect the Pittsburgh culture to some extent.

Studio Name: Poiesis III Studio Professor: Jeff King Group Project with Tianshu Huang

Transformations aided us in linking the educational and public buildings to showcase the idea of connectivity. Firstly, we created two functional sections of the building: the educational and public space and then we generated several possible methods of connection to ensure a consistency. Additionally, the roof was our culinary institute stretches as different spatial sections of building begin. This helps showcase a distinction between the spaces from the exterior as well.

Our site is in south shore facing the Monongahela River. Our site is extremely accessible through different sections of Pittsburgh and is close to two of the bridges across the river. It is also a very pedestrian friendly zone consisting of multiple bike paths, green zones, sitting spaces etc. It also has high accessibility to restaurants and commercial buildings.

Our building is a longhouse. The first floor of the building consists of spaces organized in terms of accessibility in relation to the site and accessibility within the interior spaces. Our institute has various points of entry. However, when driving, the sequence begins with the parking lot on the left-hand side of the building then the space consists of changing rooms, toilets and storage then one enters an outdoor garden that is circular and made with glass so its visible from the inside as well then one transitions into academic spaces such as offices, classroom, and study space, then entering the teaching kitchen that is connected to the dining area.

The educational zones end here however the sequence may continue and one can enter a large space that acts as an exhibition space where live music and showcases of Pittsburgh culture will take place. This helps enhance the experience of the individual when they enter a restaurant space. Connected to the restaurant on the right side is the working kitchen and other service areas such as housekeeping, loading, and food distribution.

McKinley Environmental Center McKinley Environmental Center is a 4-story mass timber building located in McKinley Park in Beltzhoover Neighborhood, Pittsburgh. Our building descends to follow the slope and contours of the site allowing each floor to be on grade with entrances needed by code. Some particular features of the building include a cistern on the first ground floor, a mechanical room stacked on each floor, and a PV parapet roof.

BIMcloud: edu-na - BIMcloud Software as a Service/2023-2/United States of America/Carnegie Mellon University/48400C-LEE-2023-02/Template/BIOSTemplate26

The building integrates design strategies for the envelope, HVAC system, water, and energy use which aims for efficiency and low environmental impact to support carbon-neutral design.

It is designed to both educate and immerse its occupants with every visit, through an experience that emphasizes both the working systems of the building, as well as the natural beauty of this small pocket of Pittsburgh.

With a window to wall ratio of 33% and a majority of the glass on the southern facade, in developing our daylighting strategies we focused on maximizing the amount of sunlight into the building. To account for issues of glare, wooden Louvers have been added to the window mullions to reduce ASE. There is a large curtain wall on the southern facade that lets most of the daylight into our vertical corridor, stairway and elevator shaft.

Originally there was an excessive amount of light entering through this approximately 1500 square foot curtain wall. However, our 9000 sf PV roof not only supplies the building with solar energy, but it’s sizable overhang also significantly shades the curtain wall throughout most times of the day

Existing Master Plan

Proposed Master Plan

Central Vista Avenue During my internship, I assisted in India’s largest project, which is the redevelopment of its administrative capital. I specifically worked on central Vista avenue which is the space between the India Gate and the Rashtrapati Bhawan, This space consists of a range of features now that make it even more appealing and enjoyable for the public. It consists of better pathways, allocation of vending zones, and more green spaces to create more space for India’s large population.

Each tree on this site was examined, based on which in various places, trees were excavated, and new and more trees had to be planted. This also helped elevate this public space. In addition, even the administrative buildings were redeveloped keeping in mind the existing/ surrounding building materials.

The central secretariat houses all the ministries of India. This site plan is one of the central secretariats out of the 10. The exterior resembles the other buildings around it to create a common visual language.

This drawing showcases the use of red sandstone which is representative of Indian culture as this material is derived from nature, it is readily available in India, and it has a long history: since it is so easily available in India, most famous historical buildings such the sheesh mahal, red fort, and many more are built using this material as it is also cheap and durable.

This elevation shows the central secretariat 10 (CCS 10) compared to the India Gate indicating the height will be less than 41.9 meters, which is less than India Gate hence in the skyline India Gate will stand out. (All buildings designed for this project will be shorter than India Gate)

Designing my own home with Edge Studios Alongside Edge Studios (an architecture firm based in Delhi, India that I had already interned with), I worked on designing an 8,000 sq ft apartment unit in Gurugram, Haryana: DLF Camellias.

The project’s goal was to create a 4 bedroom apartment and fulfill the client’s needs (My family). My parents wanted a minimalistic yet neutral color palette for the master bedroom and also insisted on incorporating arches. They wanted to create a combination of a modern yet neo-classic space and a darker color palette with grays and blacks contrasting with the wood for the guest room and the poker room.

Master Bedroom

This internship was extremely insightful as I had already worked on someone else’s home with this firm and then later designing for my own family helped me first hand understand the exchange between an architect and a client.
