Ayodhya : An Introspective

Social Space Experiment

Architecture has been used to influence the lives of people or showcase power of an individual. It has also been used to disintegrate society, while bringing it together at the same time.

Taking India, the Hindu-Muslim clash has been going on for quite a while. Can architecture aid in the process of their possible co-existence?

Communal violence is a term that is pretty infamous in this developing country. The root cause is not the result of one factual incident, but a product of a lot of issues that run deep in the history of India.

Architects have a responsibility to society. There is a dire need for a structure that calls out to these communities by bringing them together under one shelter to co-operate, co-exist and love.

WHAT IS COMMUNAL VIOLENCE? wikipedia : communal violence is a form of violence that is perpetrated across ethnic or communal lines, the violent parties feel solidarity for their respective groups, and victims are chosen based upon group membership but, laymen have defined communal violence as mostly religious conflicts.

STATISTICS

- 31 - 100

rise of factionalised elites

- 101 - 300

India has been ranked 63, on the threat to minority group scale dropping 16 places from last year

- 301 - 700

WHY IS IT CAUSED? divide and rule policy socio - economic factors religious causes Some large scale violences to have been recorded throughout history include the Kashmir Unrest, Nazi Germany and The Crusades

TIMELINE Starting with the tearing down of an old Ram Temple (allegedly) by one of Babur’s generals the Babri Masjid dispute has been going on since 1525. A clash that broke out in front of Hanuman Garhi to oust the Hindu Bairagis led them to open a Chabutra (tent like structure), to house their deity (Lord Ram), on the site of the mosque. Petitions and court cases later only initiated different points of entry to the different groups.

In 1949, a Ram Idol was placed inside the mosque itself and the site had henceforth been declared disputed. In 1992, a rath yatra that started out as an awareness campaign, turned ugly with incites from political leaders which led to the demolition of the mosque.

6th December, is remembered as a black day in the history of India. Riots followed in all major cities of the country.

narration and journey The narrative on the other hand starts with a dialogue about communal violence.

Hence, the structures have been laid in accordance with this dialogue 1. what is communal violence?

2. can we trace its history or obtain a timeline?

3. do you know how many people have been affected due to this?

4. have you come across anyone who works towards improving community integration and educating masses about tolerance?

5. are you aware about the causes of communal violence?

6. is there any structure that commemorates those who died?

Lastly, the visitors reach this level first and experience the heat. The memorial, is placed on top of this and can be viewed from the bottom giving viewers a different perspective.

Next, visitors walk through a series of the causes of communal violence, in the form of roofing systems which take the visitors through different experiences.

The third element, aether, occupies the centre of the site, both geometrically and elementally with different meanings in different religions.

In the 2nd block visitors find themselves in front of a tree symbolising the block. This structure is associated with the destructive and reformative forces of communalism.

AIR

The air is one of the main reasons for spread of hate and anger. visitors come through a small opening and fall into a big room, a “collection point�.

Residence Project :

Home is where the heart is

18 56

Being the first year of experiencing design and drafting, the brief submitted to us by college was relatively relatable where we were to design a residence for a family of four. The site given to us was in Pallikaranai, Chennai, with the built area being 300sqm. Pallikaranai being a marsh land itself hosted a variety of views and wildlife in and around the site.

With the contemporary style growing in popularity, this structure has been designed to bring Indian architectural elements.

Also, keeping in mind the necessity of open spaces, this house hosts an inside out concept keeping the structure in touch with the nature around it.

The main exercise was to develop concepts and have atleast one unique element in the design

Institution Project :

National Institute of Fashion Technology

National Institute of Fashion Technology is an institute that concentrates majorly on fashion and its constituents. It has been one of the most reputed institues of India since 1986.

Keeping in mind the necessity of open spaces in a design institue, this project portrays some of the traditional architecture of Yelagiri, responsive to its climate and integrating the structure with its surrounding.

The design focuses on the interspersion of the open and closed spaces leading to the use of both rectilinear and curvilinear structures.

This project was carried out in the 3rd year, and taught us the importance of providing the necessary spaces and solving working drawings

Theyagaraya Nagar

Urban Design Studio

More famously known as T. Nagar, this is said to be one of the major shopping districts in chennai catering to a different types of people, and managing to meet everyone’s demand. T. Nagar is also the first planned settlement in British India, after the establishment of the Madras Constituency This studio was done in hope of understanding urban design and the factors that affect it. These include physical, social economic and most importantly, policy making.

It was J.E. Hensman, who was the chief engineer of the Corporation of Madras and hence, responsible for the planning of T Nagar. It was the first planned locality to come up in Madras in the 20th century. The history of T Nagar has much to do with the history of our city – the rise of Dravidian politics, the freedom struggle, the world of cinema, and of course the history of retail shopping.

TIMLELINE 1900

1911

1923

1928

Until the early 1900s, Chennai’s western boundary was the villages to the west of Mount Road and the Long Tank. The entire land was covered with agricultural fields.

The laying of suburban railway line from Egmore to Kancheepuram resulted in a station at Mambalam.

The Long Tank was drained out. During 1923-25 the town was planned by J.E Hensman and an 8 acre park was developed at the centre of this new locality name after Raja of Panagal

Nalli Chinnasami Chetty showroom was the first prominent shop established.

There were minor commercial buildings that took birth along the Ranganathan street during 1929.

1930

1932

1944

1991

In the 1930s a shopping complex was developed by Chockalinga Mudaliar. It consisted of ten shops. This was the first bazaar in T’Nagar. He named it Pondy Bazaar.

Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama was the first school with 983 students established in T.Nagar.

Thyaga brahma sabha was started by writer, Chandilyan, and actor, Nagaya, to promote art amongst people during the early period.

Star-rated hotels started appearing in the locality with the opening of a threestar hotel named Residency in 1991.

As of 2006, there were seven hotels with over 80 percent occupancy rates

1960

1960

Duraiswamy Road Subway started construction by the 1960’s to ease incoming traffic of goods and outgoing traffic of exports, to and from T. Nagar.

This was a solution to the ever shut Railway gates.

T - Nagar Bus Terminus was established in 1930. It aided services to places like Kodambakkam and Parrys Corner within the city and to other distrcits namely Kanchipuram and Thiruvallur.

Madley Road Subway was also constructed due to the traffic congestion caused by the closed of the railway gates due to a busy Mambalam Railway Station

In this year, two ( now widely used ) bridges were constructed in T Nagar for easy flow of traffic. One was on Usman Road connecting its north and south and the other was on GN Chetty road.

ELEMENTS : EDGES PATHS NODES FIGURE GROUND

EDGES : The edges of the site are bounded by manmade boundaries, one is the railway track on the left and all other sides are cornered by roads.

PATHS : Routes along which people move throughout the area. Here, the major roads are the ones radiating from Panagal Park.

NODES : Strategic focus points for orientation.

Here the main node is the Panagal Park junction. The smaller nodes are all the junctions that enable acess to the site.

FIGURE GROUND : The percentage of open spaces to built form is quite low in T Nagar resulting in lack of space. The only breather this area gets are the three parks placed strategically on its axes.

RESIDENCE AT MILLER’S ROAD FOAID

The Millers Road project is a residential project in Chennai.

Type : Architectural Interior Time-Period : Designing of interiors, working drawings and 3D Visualization The first step was to design a bedroom on the first floor for a 1st year college boy. Since the plan had already been laid out, the interiors had to be worked on. The brief was to be inspired by a sports car, the Lamborghini.

PHOTOGRAPHY : AFTER SHOTS, WITH POST PROCESSING AND COMPARISON

Thinkering campus is a small learning by making schools tucked in a tiny village of Goa. Type : Restoration Time Period : Conceptualization and Design Phase The first step was to document the existing structure measuring every nook and corner. Next, was deciding what to retain and what to remove.

Maintaining the proportions of the existing house was largely observed. The modification was to introduce a steel insert into the structure, a mezzanine and a new roof.

THINKERING CAMPUS STUDIO MATTER

Following the elements of a typical Goan house, all the public zones were designated toward the front of the existing house and the wet areas were located towards the back.

Designing for a learning by making school, all the new additions were designed using steel as the main material.
