Goutham, a dynamic and visionary architect with an unyielding passion for software exploration and design. Graduating with flying colors, my academic journey led me to excel in my thesis, where I proposed a luxurious hotel using groundbreaking BIM technology.With a strong background in architectural practices during the evolution of BIM, I harnessed its potential to optimize workflows and drive impact at a prominent MNC engineering firm. Embracing a flexible and pleasant work style, I effortlessly delivered efficient outputs for CDMSmith, leaving a mark on the industry.Driven by an insatiable curiosity, I embraced the realm of freelancing, honing my skills in tiny interiors while continuously experimenting with software visualization. Engaging in architectural competitions, I attained honorable mentions and absorbed valuable feedback to refine my designs.My straightforward and honest approach ensures I never compromise on deadlines or quality. My aspiration now is to bring my diverse skill set and passion for harmonious design to an international architectural setting, elevating the quality of works and building a legacy of creativity and innovation.Let’s collaborate and make the world a more beautiful and functional place through exceptional architectural visions and software-driven creativity.

LIBRARY
Echoes of Wisdom
Transforming a well into a library is more than just a renovation; it’s a remarkable journey from the depths of water to the heights of knowledge. With every brick and book, we convert a mere structure into a sanctuary of imagination, a haven for learning, and a beacon of opportunity in our rural community. Just as a well once quenched our physical thirst, a library now nourishes our intellectual curiosity, offering access to a world of information, inspiration, and infinite possibilities. Let us embark on this transformative endeavor, revitalizing our well into a library, where the waters of knowledge flow freely, empowering minds, and enriching lives. In Bihar, there are several rural that have a rich historical heritage but also face challenges in terms of lower literacy levels.

Infrastructure and resource constraints are also prevalent in rural Bihar. Many schools lack basic facilities such as proper classrooms, electricity, sanitation facilities, and teaching aids. This scarcity of educational institutions makes it difficult for children in rural areas to receive a formal education. By converting wells into tiny libraries, you can transform unused spaces into educational hubs that promote reading, knowledge, and literacy in rural Bihar. This initiative can contribute to empowering individuals, improving educational outcomes, and fostering community development. Vaishali is an ancient village in Bihar with rich historical and archaeological significance. Respecting Roots: Blending Architectural Aesthetics with Modern Functionality in Converting an Indian Rural Well into a Library. Libraries in rural communities help bridge gaps in education, information access, and social connectivity. They contribute to the overall development, empowerment, and well-being of the community by providing essential resources, fostering a love for reading, and supporting lifelong learning.

In the vibrant village of Kodiolo, nestled in the southern region of Senegal, a harmonious connection unfolded between three neighboring communities, their bond radiating within a radius of approximately 4 kilometers. This alliance brought forth a bountiful plot of land in Kodiolo, where a transformative project aimed to revolutionize the journey from home to school for the village’s children. The design itself became a testament to the philosophy of form follows function, intertwining seamlessly with a range of activities that shaped the ideology of transitioning from houses to schools.

GARDEN OF CHILDREN
Transition of Houses to school for kids is a New leap ,thusThis concept considers the principle of adopting domestic building typology and slow adaptation for the kids to feel the space as second home.All means to create a dynamic and vibrant spaces for their activities. At the heart of this architectural marvel, the three consecutive classrooms stood proudly on either side, their symmetrical arrangement acting as a symbolic bridge between the worlds of education and home life. The enclosure of these six classrooms gave birth to a central multipurpose courtyard, a space inspired by the vernacular architectural heritage of the region. To maximize the utilization of this courtyard and minimize costs, the traditional concept of corridors was reduced or removed entirely, allowing for unrestricted movement and a free-flowing atmosphere.

Careful coordination and arrangement of the elements and functions were essential in creating a coherent image of the school. The program features aimed to achieve a bilaterally symmetrical figure, with two equal and perpendicular axes. The administrative areas, canteen, staff facilities, and dispensary were strategically placed near the entrance, providing security and monitoring capabilities while prioritizing the courtyard and classrooms. Rectangular and square spaces existed in a delicate equilibrium, offering a sense of balance and tranquility.the entrance itself exuded a sense of serenity and equilibrium, with composite elements on either side, embracing the rawness of a welcoming and aesthetic approach to the school. The transformation of cubes into prismatic forms, whether by shortening or elongating their height, width, or depth, added a touch of visual intrigue. Positioned opposite the administrative space, the cuboidal canteen faced northeast and opened inward toward the courtyard, providing a convenient snack-break seat-out area for the children.The axiality from the entrance to the far end of the classroom space was meticulously crafted to maintain a clean and linear design approach.

Thissystem combines the stiffness of the perimeter-framed tube with a set ofstiff internal reinforced concrete core walls. Structurally, this arrangement will act in asimilar manner to the shear-wall and-frame system but will be considerably more robustdue to the strong lateral strength of the outer tube. The final arrangement of the internal core and external frame, and the degree to whichthese two framing systems are combined, will govern the overall bending, torsional andshear capacity of the structure. A high degree of analysis, planning and coordination will be necessary to achieve the most economical balance for a particular building and, ashighlighted in this system will largely dictate the appearance of the building.The application of this system allows for the design of buildings up to approximately 180-200 m in height.
