ABOUT THE PROJECT
The concept of the project is to “REVIVE THE ESSENCE OF BENGALURU - THE GARDEN CITY”
Bengaluru is not only known for its cold weather and soothing climate in the tropical country of India but also for its streets and roads filled with avenue trees on either side.
But towards the side of Bengaluru where the project is located, this “Spirit of Bengaluru Greens” is lost. Hence the concept, REVIVE THE ESSENCE OF BENGALURU.
This is achieved by proposing a green belt around the site with a green walkway through it and having dedicated spaces for orchards and including many native species of planting in the project.
The challenge is that, most of the open spaces are on slab and the site is on different levels with a rocky outcrop predominantly occupying the open space and a CDP road passing through the site.










ACTIVATED URBAN SQUARE
Site Location: Pondicherry
Area: 9000sq.m


CONCEPT
The design brief is to design a urban square in Pondicherry as an individual design. The site is selected by each individual with a valid reason for the site and approved . The site is located in the juction of Uppalam road and South Boulevard road, Puducherry.

LISTENERS

Urban square is a space common for people of all age group. The users of the space despite of all age groups are classified as Listeners, Observors, and Interactors. According to their needs the square is divied into three zones, which is achieved through levels and elevated surfaces and small design elements. Colour differentiation enhance accessibility as it helps define zones of circulation as opposed to zones of pause and seating.
FLEXIBLE DESIGN & SEASONAL STRATEGY:
The inherent urban characteristics of the space are enriched to create a new flexible “commons”, a transformable public space that adapts to diverse social, cultural and seasonal circumstances.
A successful square can’t flourish with just one design or management strategy. Great squares change with the seasons. Skating rinks, outdoor cafés, markets, horticulture displays, art and sculpture help adapt our use of the space from one season to the next.
Pedestrian flows for each season with different purpose.....





SITE LOCATION PROXIMITY
SITE AREA: 9000SQ.M
The main reason to select this site is that it is packed in the centre, surrounded by Petit Seminaire Higer Secondary School, Industrial Training Institute, Promenade beach. Hence the visitors of the square are mostly children, employees, and tourists
PEDESTRIAN FLOWS
Uninterrupted and Seamless flows of pedestri ans enhance accessibility and achieve strategic connections with pedestrian network.
