the SPIRIT I NS E A R C H O F S O UL COMPETITION- Notion of India, TATA Structura INDIVIDUAL TYPE- Sculpture/ Symbol SITE- Indian context DESCRIPTION- In the context of products like temples, houses, palaces, pavilions, villages, towns etc. the process is a mix of technical, religious, astrological procedures which were carried out so as to make the product in harmony with the environment and universe. The form is rectilinear and stilted which signifies modernism, therefore the design has both modern and historic versions of India.

CONCEPT The spirit is a symbolic sculpture design which represents the mandala philosophy. Since India is rich in culture and faith, it invites all kinds of souls to spend time and interact with each other. India for centuries has had a rich culture of self-help practices and spiritual ethos.

PROCESS The sculpture is made up of Steel tubular section, timber, stone and glass. By using equally reflected and absorbed material in fabrication and finishes it enhances the visual and aesthetics expression. The design is developed using basic geometric shapes, it follows design principles like symmetry, alignment and proportion. There is a balance between closed and open and allows peoples to move freely. The site becomes a miniature cosmos; a universe with the client at its center. It can be easily integrated into the urban and rural context of India. The site is the upholder of the built form. Various rituals, geometrical matrices (mandalas), astrological deadlines, chanting of verses, etc.

The Spirit of the Building (Vâstupurush)on the manduka diagram (As per Mayamatam)

Galaxy in an expanding universe (sunya or bindu)

Manduka Mandala (64 Squares)

ENVELOP: The outer envelope is the boundary of protection. It covers all the critical functions inside through the transparent membrane. It has the quality of defined existence and purpose.

HEAD: Head is believed to be a manifestation of bindu, it can help to overcome antagonism, conflict, stress and even war. Bindu as a symbolism is the beginning of the process.

TREES: The cluster of trees represents the sign of the evolution of life. It goes through the eyes and mouth and comes out through the hole of the head. It connects the human mind to nature and brings out inner peace.

SUPPORT: It represents the fine thread of life.

A wire-framed base made with a steel square cross section used to support the human head and transfer the load of envelopes through connectors into the foundation.

CONNECTORS: Made up with a circular steel section and is used to hold the head in position. It is laid on the grid of 1.5m*1.5m and goes upto 12m in height.

BASE: The base (12m*12m) is driven from the concept of Mandala (64 squares) this space allows people to move freely.

It consists of different purposes like performing area, resting etc.

MATERIALS STEEL - GLASS Glass connects the inside and outside. The pleasure of being in a protected environment with the ability to look out and see all the colours of the seasons is one of the envelop greatest qualities.

Glass helps create the illusion of more space in the urban spaceW, creating a fresh and wider atmosphere.

GLASS - WOOD Wood is a traditional material with a long and proud history and, is capable to capture CO2 from the atmosphere and incorporate so-called carbon storage.

STEEL - STEEL Steel framing is also easier to coordinate because steel studs weigh about one-third less than wood studs.

STEEL - WOOD Wood–metal composite materials A wood–metal composite is a kind of material combining a wooden material with metal through special technology. Wooden material can be solid wood or natural fibre; the composite form can be metalized wood, metal cladding board, wood–metal composite pipe and metal surface coat wood.

STEEL - STONE - CONCRETE As a bad conductor of heat, concrete can store a considerable amount of warmth from the environment.

Site analysis

The site is surrounded by 22-25 storeyed residential buildings on two of its sides and the other two having open lands. These residential buildings are mainly occupied by families coming from various countries, especially Korea and China, working for the several multinational companies opening up in the vicinity of the site. This neighbourhood with residents from different cultures turns out to be just perfect for a school affiliated to the International Baccalaureate (IB), aiming to provide holistic education to students.

ZONING & PROCESS •

•

•

Building are planned so that all classrooms and learning spaces are placed on either the north or south side to provide maximum access to natural light while ensuring that the associated heat gain and glare are easy to control.

Spaces that will not be occupied throughout the day or where heat gain is not a problem, like circulation cores, service shafts, toilets, audio-visual rooms, and the canteen, are placed towards the east and west sides of the building.

These strategically placed spaces effectively buffer unwanted radiation and help reduce the cooling load of the building. Green courtyards have been incorporated between the building blocks to naturally bring down the surrounding space’s temperatures and create a cool microclimate.

Step 4

North-South orientation increases access to natural light, creating day-lit spaces

Building Blocks stepping down towards the south allow the entry of low angled winter sun inside.

Creating open courtyard spaces amidst building blocks

Placing rooms with the largest volumes on south and south-east side to reduce heat gain.

RESILIENCE

Integration of modular pod in multipurpose hall

Adaptive Utilisation: The spaces designed for the school are to be used in multiple ways in case of different occasions. But, to create alternate places for the same purpose in different situations, is quite a task. Our approach was to design the spaces which can create good quality atmosphere and can also be used as an alternative for some other function.

outddor parkour area and open air theatre is placed in between the two blocks. Amphitheatre act as the centre point and gatwway to the building. It allows people to gather and increases social activity.

Storm water in funneled through the site by the slick, sloped roof and passed through parkour area. Terraced land, playful water channels, and native tress helps to create microclimate.

CPTED involves building a safer environment to reduce the opportunities for crime incidents.

Proper site planning and building planning plays an important role in this.

Make edges beautiful and bold with art furniture and greenery that continue into the street to highlight parkour area presence and extend their inviting reach.

OTHER WORKS Pai nti n g | S c u lp t in g DESCRIPTION- I love to use mix media in my painting which gives it a creative variation and texture and also adds a sense of aesthetics to it. Humanity, nature and void spaces are the key elements of my artwork. I believe that spending time on different forms of art gives me energy and also keeps me motivated. It helps me to describe the design narrative and generate concepts from them.

COMPETITION- SOULS OF BEIRUT (Runner-up)

TYPE- SIZE- MATERIAL- DESCRIPTION-

MEMORIAL DESIGN + ART COMPETITION Art (painting) A1 Canvas (594*841) Canvas, glass marker, pastel colour, colour pencil, charcoal, water tube colour What happened on the 4th of August?

A massive blast in the port of Beirut , caused extensive suffering to the people of the city, tremendous damage to its physical and cultural fabric as well as affecting multiple economic sectors.

CONCEPT: This painting is well described about the situation of all people who were watching that tragic event on their social media, television or any platform. Here I created two frames which describe two different situations and conditions of their life and both the frames seem to merge. The view is created from the window, such that someone is watching outside the window and observing the tragic event. Here the other frame which is created outside the window actually defines the people who are standing in front of the window are seeing the mobile/television screen. So, the window view describes all the emotions and how the blast affects the people of Beirut.
