CENTRE FOR

arts & crafts

Architectural thesis project

8th semester

In Gulbarga, designed using FORM, SPACE & ORDER

An Arts and Crafts centre is a facility from which products with artistic value and/or souvenir value are sold along with a range of products which emanate from the local culture.

The picture showing the part of the site which Forms the visual center of the site. This area not only provides a panoramic view of the bazaars, workshops but serves as an area from which most of the activities are visible.

MY TAKE .

My thesis project is concerned with the relationship between the person and form, space order which is experienced consciously or unconsciously. Form, Space, and Order distills complex concepts of design into a clear focus and brings difficult abstractions to life.

FORM, SPACE, AND ORDER has served as the classic introduction to the basic vocabulary of architectural design

Form and space in relation to light, view, openings, and enclosures and explores the organization of space, and the elements and relationships of circulation, as well as proportion and scale.

Plan based on form, space and order principles wherein the radiating part forming the bazaars and the rhythmic squares forming museums and the part showing cluster is for restaurant and guest rooms

Yellow and orange extruded walls indicate shading device catering shade to pedestrian walkways

Bazaar

Bazaar Elevation Bazaar

Architectural project

6th semester

Multi specialty hospital was a project given in 6th semester which had to cater 2 specializations –gynecology and orthopedic.

MY TAKE A combination of rectangles and play of projections , beams and columns to avoid the look and feel of hospital and give a homely feel by using water ponds and interesting elements

This area forming the bridge between hospital and canteen

In hospital, people should be able to have time to themselves -Zaha hadid

Architectural project

6th semester

My take : A juxtaposition of square boxes and rectangles showing connectivity between 2 broken boxes.

To give a contemporary look by wrapping the brick box with a Rcc structure.

SITE Is a contoured site sloping 3m towards the road. The design problem was to retain the contours and design a unisex spa. THE stadium was to be designed for 25000 people.

My take : The stadium was designed to give unobstructed view to the viewers using huge cantilevered structures – tensile members.
