PLANNING AND ARCHITECTURE

PULASKI COUNTY: FUTURE LAND USE PLAN

Project: Future Land Use Plan Document for Pulaski County, Ar. Involvement: Plan doucument Indesign report preperation, assisting in GIS maps and narrative writing.

GIS map for three subregions of Pulaski County

SHERWOOD: UDC UPDATES

Projects: Norman Comprehensive plan update, Sherwood UDC update

Involvement: Road way sections

Place Types Transact: Tools for guiding development.

Goal: Creating a place type image that reflect the prevalent land use types in cities that we work on to inform planning decision.

CITY OF CABOT: ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICTS

Project: Development of code for City of Cabot Entertainment overlay district.

Involvement: Provided graphics to illustrate design guidelines. Provided support for the development of narrative for these districts.

Corridor Mixed Use:

The purpose and intent of this district is to create a pedestrian friendly, mixeduse environment that combines both commercial and multifamily residential uses. The scale and intensity of this district is intended to be less than the Highway Gateway, with building footprints that are reduced and more pedestrian focused site design. This district will have many commercial uses that will serve the local and regional population.

Highway Gateway:

The purpose and intent of this district is to be the highest intensity commercial and multifamily uses that are highly visible along the highway. These uses will need adequate infrastructure to support the expected traffic and other infrastructure needs. This district is anticipated to have uses that will primarily service the larger regional area, as well provide more intensive housing units for the City of Cabot.

Downtown Core:

The Downtown Core is a pedestrian oriented district, with restrictions on parking and traffic in the area. Buildings in this district are built oriented to the street and most have zero lot line construction. Use is intended to be commercial and residential but does not typically include single-family residences. This district will prioritize the built form.

Downtown Neighborhood:

The Downtown Neighborhood will allow small commercial uses to blend into the existing residential fabric. No new parking will be allowed in front of the commercial structures, and the exteriors and lot layout will reflect the existing neighborhood, while allowing for a transition of uses. The commercial uses in this district are anticipated to serve the local area. Single-family, duplex, and limited townhomes will be allowed in the Downtown Neighborhood district.

SHERWOOD: UDC UPDATES

Project: Updating the UDC for Sherwood Involvement: Provided graphics to illustrate design guidelines.

SPENCER: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

Project: Development of comprehensive plan document for city of Spencer, OK. Involvement:

This project is through University of Oklahoma, as a Graduate Research Assistant under professor Charles G. Warnken.

Preperation of various comprehensive plan sections such as history and introduction, demographics, landuse and zoning.

GIS mapping, data collection and intrepretation.

ZINE: FOR INCREMENTAL PLANNING THEORY

Softwares used: Adobe Photoshop, and Illustrator and Indesign

PATHSHALA: SCHOOL DESIGN

SITE, COMMUNITY AND PLANNING:

The site is surrounded by a new expanding community of Bhaisepati, Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Designed in an area of about 23,070 sq.m., the site is facilitated by road network on its north, south and east side.

The school provides education for classes up to 10 and consists of two sections each [capacity= 30 per classes]. Besides the major educational houses the site needed to serve entertainment and overall growth of children, hence is facilitated with Auditorium [capacity= 600], Administration block, Multipurpose hall, Swimming pool, Dining/ cafeteria block [capacity= 168], Library and other supporting facilities.

Colourful city of Lalitpur, where the site is located. Hence use of primary colours to provide visual hierarchy.

Two Axis are drawn through the north- south and east-west direction. As the main road is on East of the site it is selected as the main entrance. In southern area of site residential areas are located hence southern spaces are allocated for the communal spaces such as auditorium,parking and playground.

Library is located at the focal point of the N-S axis, two entrances are at East and South point of the axis. Classrooms, courtyards, canteen and admin block are placed accordind to the functional requirements.

Design is done across various courtyards diving seperate spaces for different functions and group of people. Wind and sun path direction are taken into account creating ideal flow for heat,light and ventilation.

CONNECTIVITY

CORRIDOR: Used for connectivity throughout the school. Prevents from rain and sun while travelling within the school. Also, serves as a space to showcase projects and art of students.

HABITAT : STUDENT’S ACCOMMODATION

Diverging from Hermetic/isolated way of life and integrating wide community. Significant loss of community life due to “barrack like” designs - decreases the creative as well as learning ability of the persons

Designed as a “REFERENCE PROJECT” for student’s accommodation in Nepal Using concepts of Modularity, spatial layers and interconnectivity to flourish the design ideas and principals

STUDENT HUB AS AN EXTENSION OF STUDENT LIFE

Spaces which can be utilized by the students with sharing with connunity such as:

• Shared working spaces

• Sports, entertainment and shopping spaces, library,gym

• Spaces for start-ups and innovation

• Foster the learning beyond the room

APPROACH 1: Modularity

APPROACH2: SPATIAL LAYERS

LANDSCAPE : A PLACE FOR ALL

Group project:

Team members include Sarika Regmi, Priyanka Shah, Prakash Awasthi, Shivajee Thapa, Saroj Malla and Utsav Khatiwada

Involvement: Documentation, survey and questionnaire, proposal review and planning, plans and illustrations.

SITE OVERVIEW

STRENGTH

•orientation

•Access to the site

•better alignment with the roads

•plain topography

WEAKNESS

•Natural Buffer

•Dropped topography that may create drainage problem

OPPORTUNIT

Y •orientation

•proper visual plane

•possibility of more vitality and socialization of space

THREATS

•Dampness

•Mayn t be emphasized due to nearby playgrounds

Site is located at the boy’s hostel premises of institute of engineering, pulchowk campus. Which is also quite near to girls hostel and residential quarter for staffs of IOE, pulchowk campus, lalitpur district.

Site is plain in topographical point of view and has possibility to create a strong visual axis to the overall dynamics of the space.

CONCEPT

Our main concept is to revive the ‘chautaries as a socialization space’. It will serve as a gathering space for teachers, staffs and students. The chautaries are raised platforms often constructed beneath big shady trees beside rural trails where the travellers can rest after a tedious uphill climb.

FOODHIVE: CAMPUS CAFETERIA DESIGN

The project was completed alone.

As my project concept is creating a common space for students to gather, eat, enjoy and socalize hence naming it food hive using a hexagonal honeycomb shape.

SITE CONSTRAINTS

Site has 6 trees to preserve it planning is done to accordingly without distrubing them. Site is elongated L-shaped and has access on two sides. Hence, the central space is utilized for service and back of the house space like kitchen and store with dining space on outer sides.

TINY HOUSE: SMALL LIVING SMALLER FOOTPRINT

Site is located at Kathmandu in the heart of the city Area: Total 1,152 sq.ft divided into two vertical plot of 576 sq.ft each Each plot is 18’x 32’

Challange was to create two fully functioning home each with two bedroom, two bath and living and kitchen with a single car parking.
