SITE ANALYSIS AVERAGE TEMPERATURE & PRECIPITATION

WIND ROSE DIAGRAM

Roorkee has the NNE (North-North East) as its windward side which means, for the maximum time duration round the year, the buildings are hit on the NNE side by winds.

WIND SPEED

The average wind speeds vary around 12kmph.

With an average of 30.9 °C, June is the warmest month.

January is the coldest month, with temperatures averaging to a value of 12.7 °C .

Case Studies 1 . 'The Flow' - A Multipurpose Pavilion Modularity in terms of an entire unit as well as components Different tiers allows multiple activities in one place without having requirement to modify

2. Women’s Opportunity Center / Sharon Davis Design Architects: Sharon Davis Design Area: 2200 m² Year: 2013 Place: Africa

The site of the new Women’s Opportunity Center, located at a crossroads above a fertile valley.

Vernacular Rwandan Village as an organizing principle.

A series of human-scaled pavilions clustered to create security and community for up to 300 women.

This mini-village transforms urban agglomeration and subsistence farming with an architectural agenda to create economic opportunity, rebuild social infrastructure, and restore African heritage.

UNDERSTANDING HILL ARCHITECTURE Once there was a time when wooden bridges were used. This wood was the same which was used to make houses in the rugged topography.

Be it the Heritage home or ancient building, they all are based on this ancient technique of construction.

Known as TAQ construction, where the structural members are made of Timber ( timber lacing). A unit of timber window is also known as TAQ, which makes this technique a primitive pre-fabrication construction.

Inspirations from other parts of India Traditional houses in Kerala have a roofing system that has a steep sloping design.The angle of the roof is 30-40 degrees. The roof overhang is suspended very low to protect the mud or timber walls from rain, and other elements of weather and to withstand the heavy monsoon. This sloping design enables rainwater, and snow to drain away easily.

Flexible Entrance

We wanted to create a sustainable interactive learning environment for everyone which is self-sufficient. The space must also be flexible for different purpose such as exhibition, jury panel for architecture students, student hang out space, small party venue and flexible workspace.

Exhibition area

Concept

People can gather, sit, talk and interact. This way the pavilion can be designed as an open, semiopen or closed space to provide different spacial experiences.

The audience can interact with the art on display inside the pavilion and see, touch, click photographs etc. Audience can view and experience the pavilion itself as a work of art.

Gutter for water collection

The roof profile is kept sloping similar to the mountains.

Solar Panel

Bamboo Roof

Provision for solar panels and rainwater harvesting has been provided. Roof is sloped at 29 degrees to maximise sun gain and the generated eletricity will be used to charge laptops or equipment through plug points on the columns

CONTRIBUTION Delia Narayan "Didi" Contractor She was the 2017 winner of the Women Artists, Architects and Designers (WADe) Asia Life Time Achievement Award.

In 2019 the president of India gave her the Nari Shakti Puraskar, India's highest civilian award for recognising the achievements and contributions of women She specialised in buildings that fit into, rather than contrast with, the landscape, and are made of natural local materials: mainly mud, bamboo, and stone, with small amounts of deodar wood.

Since our beloved Didi contractor has left us few months back, and we had based our prototype based on her principles and pallete. We would like to conduct the first exhibition about her.
