Hailing from a culturally diverse nation, I honed my architectural perspective at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. Surrounded by magnificent structures and a profound connection to nature, I developed a keen eye for design. With experience in both India and Dubai, my academic journey has instilled in me the ability to create humancentric and sustainable architectural solutions, seamlessly blending aesthetics. As an ambitious designer, my goal is to contribute vibrancy to spaces through meticulous design analysis and artful visualization, bridging the realms of functionality and beauty.

AIIMS HOSPITAL

Madurai, India | Academic Project | Graduation Thesis

Abstract

The design and operation of hospitals within the dynamic health care system plays a vital role in ensuring the well-being of individuals and communities. The prestigious All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), now to be built in Madurai, offers a unique fabric of architectural insight and innovation through its commitment to delivering world-class healthcare. The idea is to rethink and design a medical college that shows great progress in health and education in South India.

The thesis presents an in depth analysis of a 750-bed hospital designed to serve 5000 outpatients daily, while specializing in architecture that prioritizes each people and the surroundings. It emphasizes the mixing of people-centric and sustainable design concepts to create a healing environment.

Central to this idea is the concept of a “Hospital in a Garden”, in which nature and architecture work together to beautify the healing method, fostering a space that promotes both bodily and emotional well-being.

LE EREDITA

Rome, Italy | Academic Project | Semester 5

Abstract

Cultural centers are becoming more popular around the world, as technology like the internet makes the world feel more connected. More and more people are becoming interested in other cultures. Cultural centers are a prime way to bring communities together in their learning, which makes it more enjoyable and often times, even more helpful.

The design serves to bring communities together to know and showcase their culture and bringing out numerous volunteer opportunities. The site chosen, is in Rome, Italy with a site area of 8,500 sq.m.

The main challenge was to design in such a way that the centre represented the culture of the city and also should be able to hold cultural events within it. Suitable inspirations from the Roman culture like the Roman arches, Cornithian columns and relevant materials were the first building blocks of the design.

Abstract

Research and Development centre provides customers with prompt, innovative and cost-effective R&D solutions; develop and commercialize improved processes and products; continually enhance the capability of its human resources to emerge as a centre of excellence.

The Khoj, meaning “The search” in Hindi, designed for the competition organised by INSDAG, India is a research centre in Visakhapatnam with judicial and innovative use of steel technology. As the name says, the space holds as a serach for new technologies in the field of steel and its components for the better development and advancement of India.

The design features various CNC cut metal frames, PEB metal sheets which are structurally supported using steel columns and beams as module units. These module units are and can be repeated on the requirement of the centre into 4 blocks seperated by a courtyard.

MAYESHI SAVLI

Bhor, Maharashtra, India | Academic Group Project | Semester 6

Abstract

With increase in population and development in medical facilities, the need for care and safety for senior citizens has raised concerns among people across the world. After all the contribution done by them throughout their life across various fields and occupations, it is time for them to have a relaxing and peaceful environment with healthy activities and social gatherings.

Mayeshi Savli, a resort residency for senior citizens that would take care of the age friendly criteria, climate and provide indoor comfortable conditions using the least of artificial means.

The site is in Male Village, Bhor District, Maharashtra, India with a total area of 19 acres. The main challenge was to design the residency over a contoured site and at the same time providing barrier friendly movement to the senior citizens. A suitable concept of the “Mudra” was also chosen to support the design.

My role in this group project involved in the contribution towards concept development, site planning, topographical analysis, planning and modelling of individual blocks (majorly in Platinum villas, Row houses), landscaping, 3D visualization and final working drawings.

MAYESHI SAVLI

Bhor, Maharashtra, India | Semester 6 | Concept development

Over the years, the old-aged people of our community have gained experience in several fields. Several ideas such as respect, care, freedom, etc., are often associated with them. The concept was to depict these feelings through the built form.

It is depicted through ‘Mudras’. Hands are the most expressive portions of our communication and mudras are also inherent to Indian civilization.

Naturally obtained materials are used to blend with the surrounding landscape and achieve an eco-friendly construction. Natural materials with their earthly hues offer a sense of calm and respite. Moreover, the vernacular materials are something that appeal to the senior audience.
