ID4017 Unbuild the Built Engineering the Interior Studio Tutors: Kireet Patel & Rudrapalsinh Solanki Studio Assistant: Chandni Chhabra Level-4 Studio Unit Faculty of Design CEPT University This is a student work publication by Student name (code) documenting the studio process.

UNBUILD THE BUILT ENGINEERING THE INTERIOR Focus of the studio The studio attempts to interiorize the selected context and activity program based on the process that the studio will develop to extract the unbuilt of the built. The studio develops a relationship between the emerging technological advancements and new societal requirements that concern interior design practices and profession. The studio will enable students to materialize the interior from the extraction of the built. The studio will enable the ability to develop an individual design position through three-dimensional material based outcomes. Learning Outcomes Ability to position the process developed to make the studio outcome compete with the practices. Develop the ability to systematically factorise the interior program Ability to draw, represent and capture the qualities of the unbuilt through other graphic and artistic mediums and techniques and processes Ability to explore combinations of drawings, models and prototypes to express and concretize their process Ability to represent the final outcome in comparison to presently practice presentation techniques for interior design field
Studio Process Disassembly of an architectural environment leaves us with the components of its tangible and intangible aspects. ‘The tangible’ signifies the purpose of a designed environment but ‘the intangible signifies its spirit. Interior environments housed within the architectural shell are an outcome of the functions it inhabits and is articulated by the characteristics of its spatial qualities. ‘If the unit is a composition within itself, the multiplier is the algorithm that leads to a pattern. The end product is the extended run of the algorithm.’- Cecil Balmond Similarly, an interior environment is a ‘whole’ composed within its architectural shell. The extracted is covert to the linkages of the envelope. The tectonic aspects of an interior environment provide clues to access the experience of the space each with a measure of its own. ‘Heart’ is considered to be the organ that signifies life in a human body. The body cannot function without a heart. But the same heart when transported for the purpose of transplantation can survive in an environment that is artificial to the human body. The studio attempts to capture this artificially intelligent environment that when extracted from the built can devoid it of its life. The studio will enable students to examine interior environments and extract the experience of the spatial system such that it creates a new form of expression. The studio will enable students to examine the built and extract the unbuilt such that it can be taken to a higher level of performance through attributes of interior design principles and rulemaking. The studio process will focus on providing stability to the extracted unbuilt such that it becomes a system by itself. The studio identifies methods for programming the extracted of the built and conceptualise the program for this process. It investigates the qualities of extraction from a built which is generally informed as a site attribute. To evaluate the extracted unbuilt, the studio is conceptualised in 3 stages: Mod 01: Identifying Experiences Mod 02: Deriving Kit of Design Elements (KODE) + Bank of Experiences (BOE) Mod 03: Engineering the interior environment
Generating a kit of design elements and bank of experiences based on the extractions from Module 01
Exploring concepts of built & unbuilt by comprehending and identifying the impact of the interior spatiality in interior built environments from interior design practices
Develop a design project for one of the following design issue Crafts through scarcity or abundance Fabrication through decoration or ornamentation Advanced Technology through minimization or maximmization
Site: 18m x 15m x 9m From Module 01 & 02 develop a design process addressing the chosen design issue and derive an interior system through kit of design elements (KODE) and bank of experiences (BOE) for High-end spa with a spa space (for 4 people), High-end store (indo-foreigner store), and High-end gallery space
01 Module 01 Identifying Experiences Stage 01 Exercise Brief & Attempt: 5 examples were to be selected on the basis of site, program and typology`which were to be examined and expressed through the basis of its experience using manual, artistic and digital medium.
Learning Outcomes: This exercise helped exploring a new way of expressing the experience of the space which in turn helps in the understanding the nitty gritties of the design.
02 Module 01 Identifying Experiences Stage 02 Exercise Brief & Attempt: One example from Stage 01 was to be selected which was further dissected by finding 6 more examples on the basis of site, program and tectonics.
Learning Outcomes: The same experience can be expressed in various styles creating a new language in the space.
03 Module 01 Identifying Experiences Stage 03 Exercise Brief & Attempt: The examples of stage 02 were further evaluated on the basis visual, physical and mechanical properties which were to be artistically expressed.
Learning Outcomes: This exercise helped sharpening the observational skills towards interior projects. Also to define and identify the difference between visual, physical and mechanical properties.
04 Module 01 Identifying Experiences Stage 04 Exercise Brief & Attempt: The experience and properties of the above 6 examples were used to abstract the experience into various models.
Learning Outcomes: The importance and amalgamation of different properties were learned to put together to come out as an experience as a whole.

MODEL 2- V+P+M (PROGRAM) KEY WORDS: Levitating Contrast ofLight to heavy Open to compact Linearity to curvilinearity

MODEL 5- V+V+V (VISUAL) KEY WORDS: Contrast between opacity and translucency Members as a way finding element Layering Lighting to accentuate elements Hollow and Compact
MODEL 6- P+P+P (PROGRAM) KEY WORDS: Placement of singular and similar elements to create undulation Contrast of reflective to opaque Broken continuity
MODEL 7- M+M+M (MECHANICAL) KEY WORDS: Levitating Layering Contrast of Reflective to Opaque Exposed Heavy
MODEL 8- Model 05+06+07 KEY WORDS: Contrast of material density Achieving transparency and translucency Oneness of material in continuity Layering + Non layering Sense of depth
MODEL 9- Model 04+08 KEY WORDS: Reflectivity Layering Repetition Levitating Continuation
05 Module 02 Kit of Design Elements | KODE Exercise Brief & Attempt: From all the previous exercises and the chosen design issue,a kit of design elements (KODE) for a High-end spa with a spa space (for 4 people), a store (indo-foreigner store) and an exhibition space (with the idea of India in future) is to be derived.
Learning Outcomes: Derivation of space making elements inspired from explored examples that would thereafter help in creating a design proposal.
ELEMENTS AS SPACE DIVIDERS
ELEMENTS AS SEATING
ELEMENTS AS RAILING FOR FLOOR ABOVE AND SHELL FOR WHOLE SPACE
ELEMENTS AS STAIRCASE
06 Module 02 Bank of Experiences | BOE Exercise Brief & Attempt: From all the previous exercises and the chosen design issue, bank of interior experiences (BOE) for a High-end spa with a spa space (for 4 people), a store (indo-foreigner store) and an exhibition space (with the idea of India in future) is to be derived. KODE + BOE = A design process
Learning Outcomes: Conceptualization of design process through combination of different experiences from previous exercises.
