TRAPEZE 129
Location : Noida, UP
Sem VI Design Project
Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator
The project involves the development of a retail and office space complex in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The design focuses on integrating passive shading technologies through the implementation of a double-skin facade and strategic orientation based on the solar path. This approach ensures optimal daylighting for office areas while the retail sections are designed to align with a high-street shopping typology. The site layout accommodates seamless vehicular circulation with concealed surface parking, allowing for unobstructed vehicle movement in and out of the premises. The building comprises 14 floors (G+13) and two basement levels.

Nuovo Lignano
Location : Lignano Sabbiadoro,Italy
Competition Entry (Finalist) Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator
The design challenge centers on enhancing the connectivity between a relatively underutilized Commercial Plaza, Via delle Arti, and an undeveloped parcel of land designated for an eco-hotel. The complexity lies in seamlessly integrating these spaces to enrich the tourist experience, particularly during the bustling summer months. Additionally, the design brief entails establishing eco-friendly walking trails and essential amenities to improve access to the Pinewood forest without compromising the environment. Central to the design process is the creation of a central spine linking Via Delle Arti, the commercial plaza, the seafront, and the proposed eco-hotel. This approach aims to encourage congregation in these areas, fostering a vibrant atmosphere and revitalizing the town’s energy.




Concept
The area, shaped by architect Luigi Piccinato's 1957 plan, lacks connection due to its implementation solely in town planning, leaving the forest abandoned. Our proposal involves revitalizing this neglected space with a masterplan, reinstating connections from the coast to the forest. Via Delle Arti serves as a central axis, linking a commercial plaza to the pinewood forest, fostering tourism and transforming Lignano into an urban oasis.

Commercial Plaza
A revitalized commercial plaza bustling with activity, linking the beach to the eco hotel.

Bird watching towers along the pinewood forest trail offer refuge during forest walks.

Site Plan Eco Hotel
The hotel blocks line the horizontal vicinity of the site, with a central point for common functions connecting the apartment blocks via a pedestrian and bicycle path in a double helical fashion.







A single block consists of 2 single, 3 double, 2 triple, and 2 multi-occupancy units.


New Educational and Research Centre for Birdlife Hungary
Location : Budapest, Hungary
Under Construction Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator
Situated just outside the vibrant city of Budapest, this site offers a unique setting with minimal contextual influence and a stunning backdrop of natural landscapes. Joining the project in its final stages, I closely collaborated with the head architects to further my understanding of architecture at a professional level. My responsibilities primarily revolved around creating renders of the design.





Location : Pushkar, India
Competition Entry Top 4 Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator
The project involved the urban redevelopment of a pilgrimage site, breathing new life into its historical significance. Our journey took us to the site itself, where we delved into the intricacies and challenges it presented, ultimately crafting solutions to rejuvenate this revered town. Central to our design is the ambition to nurture a thriving ecosystem within the confines of Pushkar Lake, while also alleviating congestion by implementing restricted usage times for the roads encircling the lake. This intervention operates on an urban scale, with a vision to catalyze the emergence of cleaner, more ecologically sustainable pilgrimage destinations across India.



Connectivity
The proposal aims to improve crowd management and connectivity around Pushkar Lake through the creation of additional public spaces and the implementation of a tram network, fostering accessibility and alleviating congestion.

Spaces
The proposal seeks to enhance spatial quality by introducing elevated decks for crowd segregation based on space utilization.

Diurnal Variation
The pilgrimage involves circumambulating the 52 ghats surrounding Pushkar Lake, prompting the creation of a floating Parikrama (surrounding path) made of pontoon structures for year-round accessibility.

Sustainibility
The proposal aims to improve the lake ecosystem by demolishing concrete ghats, fostering the lake's self-purification and rejuvenation.

Innovation
The proposal aims to establish a dedicated area for pilgrims to meditate near the sacred lake, introducing meditation pads with kinetic roofs that offer adaptive shade throughout the day.

Adaptive Reuse
Converting unused land into a green park to relieve the city of its dense urban environment, with designated areas for public functions, thereby addressing street congestion.

Installation
Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator
As a team member of the BALATORIUM Ecological and Cultural Weekend program, a component of the Veszprem-Balaton 2023 European Capital of Culture initiative, I contributed to setting up an installation with ecological aims. The installation utilized hay bales as building blocks, providing seating and encouraging visitors to create their own structures. The centerpiece was a fluid-shaped wooden station housing books on Lake Ecology, aimed at educating both locals and tourists. My responsibilities included painting the pre-cut wood and arranging it onsite. This experience was immensely rewarding, fostering a passion for hands-on construction.

Paint
Pre-cut wood pieces are painted with blue-tinted wood paint and left to dry.
Intent
Educating locals of Lake Balaton, Hungary about lake ecology is crucial, especially considering the recent cement fixing along the lakefront. The installation adopts a fluid form, symbolizing the merging of nature with its surroundings. As a volunteer team member, I participated in cleaning and setting up hydra, gaining valuable exposure and connecting with professionals passionate about ecological conservation.

Fabricate
Painted wood pieces dry and mark screw placements.

Assemble
Wood pieces are assembled on-site and interconnected to form the installation.
RESTROOM 13
Location : Osaka Expo, Japan Under Construction Rhino 3D, Revit, Lumion, Photoshop, Illustrator

I contributed as a team member to the ongoing construction of Restroom No. 13 for the Osaka Expo 2025. My responsibilities included updating the 3D model in accordance with client meetings. The restroom features an outer structure composed of aluminium sheets and an interior clad with tiles. Additionally, the design incorporates a garden element, creating an innovative and serene indoor garden experience.
