A Pedestrian’s Place The thesis looked at walking and bicycling as viable modes of transport within cities and proposes multiple interventions along a water canal thereby creating a pedestrian corridor.
2020 Academic Project Design Dissertation Year 05 Semester 10 Mentor: Sonal Sundararajan Location: Navi Mumbai, India
07
Transport infrastructure in the city of Mumbai has purely been conceived as an engineering challenge. As a result, city’s transport infrastructure has become a lamination of movement networks with flyovers, metro corridors, railway lines and skywalks – all passing at various levels above the ground, criss-crossing each other. These networks fulfil functional needs by facilitating one’s swift, barrierfree movement from one point in the city to another. The thesis particularly looks at walking and bicycling as modes of transport in the city. It views ‘walking’ not only as an activity undertaken out of a functional necessity, but also as an activity undertaken by a city-dweller to experience the
city- to witness it’s events, to encounter people, to exchange ideas and to engage with the environment - thereby enabling a sense of place. The research aimed at studying the numerous ways in which walking within the city of Mumbai enables social interactions within the residents of its neighbourhoods. It aims at understanding the relationship between architecture, walkability and sociability. It attempts to assert that walkable cities foster a sense of place within their inhabitants. The primary intention of design was to showcase pedestrian infrastructure of the city not only as an engineering challenge, but
also as a challenge which potentially lies in the domain of architecture and landscape. It aimed at showing how this shift in the approach towards the challenge could possibly result in building sustainable local communities and make walking and bicycling viable modes of transport within cities.

THE MASTERPLAN
PORTFOLIO Aayush Vira
Intervention 3: BRIDGE Fig: The Transect - Satellite Image The developing city of Kharghar in Navi Mumbai was chosen as the location for a suitable intervention. Within Kharghar, a water canal was identified as the spine along which a pedestrian corridor was imagined. The corridor culminates into a crossover above an upcoming railway line before it enters the proposed park on the other side which is a part of an upcoming transportation hub with a bus depot facility and a railway station. Multiple interventions were proposed along the water canal, out of which three interventions were detailed out at different scales- the city (park), the neighbourhood (market) and the street (bridge).

Institution of Exchange The project imagines various forms of the institution of exchange in human societies through time and proposes an intervention envisioning the same in contemporary times.
2019 Academic Project Year 05 Semester 09 Mentors: Neelkanth Chhaya Ami Gokani Location: Varanasi, India
29
Human societies find diverse ways of living on earth. The land, the climate, various forms of life characteristics of a location, all affect how societies organise themselves and their space in order to survive and prosper. They create institutions that develop, foster, and support the values that each society considers important to its continuance. Cultures imagine and create the institutions that facilitate and concretise values. Yet, every defined notion is limiting and constricting the play of living process. The inspirations that drive the search for institutions are open and fluid, but the forms that come into existence can become stale, rigid or irrelevant. Thus the
most archaic of institutions are in constant need of revitalisation, transformation and even dissolution. This studio researched, designed and proposed architectural concepts, languages and environments that envision, express and support a way of living that is rich and diverse without being exploitative and destructive. The studio included, amongst other exercises, studies of transformation, translation and mutation of architectural forms in history. Based on the understandings built up by such exercises, the studio encouraged one to select a design project (an institution) and develop it to the level of architectural expression in terms of space, scale, tectonic
values, materials, light and formal characteristics. The institution of exchange is essentially a market. The life in a market was first imagined in the bronze age, the golden age and the iron age in an imaginary settlement named ‘Kronga.’ Later, the life in a market was imagined in the contemporary times and the design borrowed its foundations from the market imagined in the olden times. The institution of exchange was imagined to take place in various other forms around which a way of life was constructed. The design thus, was such that it allowed for these exchanges to exist in the contemporary times.

Fig: Key Plan The market has three shop types. Shop type 1 has two units, each opening out onto internal streets. Shop type 2 opens out onto the main road. The roof projects out to shade the sidewalk. This type contains the main display area, a back storage and a mezzanine level for multipurpose use. Shop type 3 has a verandah in the front, the main display/ shopping area, a double heighted preparation/storage area at the back with another verandah opening out on the back side. The upper level has a balcony, a small living/multipurpose area and a mezzanine on top for storage/ resting. Each of these shops borrow their grid dimensions from the earlier designs of market in the previous ages i.e. the iron age. Each of these shop types are imagined for different kinds of commodities and thus the kind of spaces required within each of these units vary.

Ferry Terminal The project aimed at re-imagining the riverfront in Lucknow and formulating strategies at urban and local intervention levels thereby constructing an image for the city and its river.
2018 Academic Project Year 04 Semester 07 Mentors: Shirish Joshi Sonal Sundararajan Aneeruddha Paul Location: Lucknow, India

Urban design has always separated its modes of spatial thinking into two tendenciesas ‘concrete material forms to be analysed and explained’ or as ‘mental constructs about, ideas about representations of space and its social significance.’ The studio aimed to explore the space between these imaginations. It aimed to introduce the tools and methods of reading urban form and structure, understanding them as determinant and evolving forces, as well as methods of reading the ‘soft city,’ the lived city as it is experienced, practiced and represented. The studio particularly examined the idea of a riverfront, an obsession of urban design and a tool
of transformation through history. The riverfront has alternately been imagined as ‘nature’, ‘ecology’, ‘resource’, ‘ritual-space’. Each of these have manifested in versions and interventions of what a riverfront, i.e. the interface or relationship between the city and the river can be. The Gomti through history has had a ambivalent relationship to the city of Lucknow. The studio aimed at understanding this relationship through history into contemporary visions for the riverfront. One of the larger intentions of masterplan for the city and the river Gomti was to imagine the river as a potential mode of local transport for the city. The intervention is situated on the embankment just where
the river comes closer to the city. The project also proposed to have an outstation bus terminal for the city since the precint acts as the entry point for the city from the west.

Fig: Lucknow City - Satellite Image The Musa Bagh precinct is on the fringe of the city of Lucknow. The precinct largely has greens in the form of agricultural fields, a forest and a bird sanctuary. The Musa Bagh monument, the Dubagga market, the sewage treatment plant, and the cattle colony are important landmarks of the precinct. Some of the larger intents of masterplanning for the precinct include: i. Making the area a prospective for economic boom for the city, ii. Making the precint a new ‘get-away’ place for the city, iii. Re-imagining the waste treatment system for the city and, iv. Reviving the Musa Bagh Monument complex.

The Catalyst The project examined the religious practices centered around the Dargah-E-Sharif in Ajmer and their relationship with the communities that they serve.
2018 Academic Project Year 03 Semester 06 Mentors: Shilpa Gore Shah Jude D’Souza Location: Ajmer, India
43
The city of Ajmer is centred around the Dargah-E-Sharif. Probably the most important Sufi shrine in India, it attracts millions of pilgrims from around the world. It exerts it’s influence throughout the city affecting its everyday life through its institutions and culture. There are rituals associated with every institutional form. These rituals mark distinct terrains within space, often demarcated by distinct edges consolidating the difference between the ‘inside’ and the ‘outside’. These rituals also connect the contemporary pilgrim across time to an imagined past and possible future. The studio aimed to examine the relationship of the Dargah to the city of Ajmer.
The Dargah functions as a result of many systems coming together. These systems are perpetual loops. Three important loops (systems) were identified, altering which shall reimagine the functioning of the Dargah. These key loops were those of history, administration and qawwali culture. A slight disturbance in these existing loops shall create a new outcome in the system. The intervention was imagined to act as a catalyst that would bring about desired changes in the existing systems within the Dargah. The kind of spaces that the project featured were - spaces for exhibition, administrative spaces and learning spaces. The presence of such spaces would start the process of re-
looking at the practices within the Dargah thereby initiating desired alterations in the key loops mentioned earlier. The building featured three distinct programs that have been strategically located on site. Central to the building is the museum. This sculptural mass would house exhibits that speak of the history of the city and the Dargah. Other programs that the building featured are - offices, classrooms, conference room, library and recording rooms. The building borrows elements from the site that reflect in its materiality and appearance.

Courthouse Annexe The project re-imagined the architecture of the judiciary and challenged the paradigms through which the institutions of democracy are imagined in modern India.
2017 Academic Project Year 03 Semester 05 & 06 Mentors: Vinit Nikumbh Namrata Kapoor Location: Mumbai, India
49
The studio explored the architecture of the institutions created by the modern Indian state to administer and maintain it’s democracy. Conventionally within the government, these institutions fall within the classic triad of the Legislative, the Executive, and the Judiciary. Each of these imagine the citizen and by extension, the ‘public’ in different ways. This affects the way that the programme of the project is shaped, as well as the architectural gestures chosenorganisationally, and symbolically. Sometimes seen as landmarks that become icons to represent the collective aspirations of the democracy, they are also sometimes framed as the necessary infrastructure upon
which the edifice of the nationstate is built. As landmarks, these buildings stand outside everyday life- as monuments to ideals that are seen as ‘timeless.’ In this attempt they often alienate the very public that they claim to represent. As infrastructure, the metaphor of the machine leads to an architecture that is placeless and banal. The country is littered with many of these born out of the strictures of the minimum necessary. The studio thus explored the paradigms through which the institutions of democracy can be re-imagined. This studio particularly examined the architecture of the Judiciary. The study looked at the hierarchy of the judicial system and the way that the
judicial system is administered. The court of small causes in Mumbai is a heritage building established in 1882. It is one of the city’s many colonial buildings in the precinct. The project - an annexe to the existing old building was imagined to function simultaneously with the old building. The project featured a courtyard, a law library and a cafetaria at the ground level making the building more public in nature. Note: The project was further taken up for the preparation of working drawings. Drawings at various scales were prepared in order to resolve and understand the process of constructing it on site. Some drawings are shown in the following pages.

Agricultural Centre The project celebrates the everyday life of an agrarian community in Chakrata region of North India and provides a platform for these ordinary lives to be played out.
2017 Academic Project Year 02 Semester 04 Mentor: Rohan Shivkumar Location: Mohana (Chakrata), India
59
What is the relationship between the idea of the institution and that of the everyday life? While one is steeped in creating value systems that transcend the everyday, the other is steeped in the rhythms of eating, sleeping and working. This is the space that was explored in the studio through the creation of an ‘Institution of Everyday Life’ in the villages of Chakrata- a region in North India. The moment when body, time and space collapse, is the ‘Event.’ These events can be important or inconsequential. They can be celebrations, meetings or love affairs. Architecture is within these. It is created by these and in turn allows them to exist.
The Jaunsari tribe living in Mohana - a settlement in Chakrata, has agriculture as its primary mode of livelihood. To enhance the crop quality, farmers use organic fertilizers which they make on their farmlands. The crop produce is sold at the local markets in Vikasnagar and Dehradun. The intervention aimed at providing a platform where people can come together as a community and produce organically made fertilizers that can be sold at local markets in cities, thereby generating collective income for the community. It also aimed at providing a centre where the local farmers can procure information on technological advancements in agriculture and farming
techniques. The intervention was a long building primarily built in exposed concrete and local deodhar wood, which sits on the terraced land of Mohana. The building featured a workshop, a greenhouse, a storage area, a computer room, classrooms, a tea room and a community hall for public activities.

The world is growing at a break-neck speed today and with rapid urbanization, information and technology, it is demanding a constantly changing human intellect. To face these transformations, the upcoming generations need to be moulded in a way that they can cope efficiently with the variations. Education can help initiate this change by altering the mindsets and outlook of people around the world. Over the last decades, education has evolved into a vital necessity for people belonging to all facets of the ever-changing world. An important agent of social change, education not only helps in moulding young minds with values but also
guides their intellectual development and boosts the society’s potential for its own progressive transformation. The site chosen for an intervention was the Kutupalong Refugee Camp, Bangladesh with a population of almost a million people. This prototype can be an insert in strategic locations throughout the camp, catering to the people living around it. The idea of the hive emerged from the understanding of the needs of a community in distress, where survival becomes the primary factor. In such situations, educational spaces can become the means to overcome the traumas of distress and help rebuilding a community. The hive derivedits concept from the temporary
nature of the refugee camp where communities tend to lose their sense of place and identity. It would become a medium for expression for the people, where they work together to carve out their own space using locally available resources. The structural module got informed by the choices of the community regarding the local materials and techniques. The project thus becomes a meeting ground for the refugees thereby allowing them to build a sense of identity and place.

The Edifice The project delved into the future of urban living and proposed a new form inspired by bio-mimicry thereby imagining urban life being played out in the waters.
2018 Competition Project Organizer: Council on Tall Buildings & Urban Habitat, USA Project Type: Housing Location: New York, USA Team: Dev Desai Samkit Vakil Aayush Vira
71
The age of the tall building as a single iconic piece of sculpture, standing in isolation from its surroundings, is coming to an end. Designers have a responsibility to ensure that these permanent urban structures engender a futureoriented urban response to the greatest challenges of our time: unprecedented population growth; mass urbanization; climate change; environmental degradation; social, political and economic change; and the rapid advance of myriad technical innovations. The future of humanity on this planet relies on the collective benefits of urban density; reducing both land consumption and the energy needed to construct and operate the horizontally
dispersed city. The advent of global warming and inescapable rising sea water levels brings about the obvious question of how cities will evolve in the next hundred years. Will new forms dominate the skyline or will we scramble to protect what already exists? The site chosen for the project was New York- a city which is on the verge of sinking due to climate change. This project strived to imagine a dynamic habitat, the form and structure of which arose from biomimicry. The slender stem of a plant which holds up a delicate flower inspired the form, while the cross-bracing and entasis of the phylum porifera determined the structure. A system of outrigger columns
further strengthens the core. The project provided for the structural framework from the outset and is allowed to grow over a period of time. The project was imagined to be built on water with the housing units being transported in the form of shipping containers on large shipping vessels.

Lime House A weekend home for a family comprising of three generations in a small village in Vadsar, some forty kilometres north-west of Ahmedabad.
2019 Professional Project Project Type: Residential Scope: Architecture Interior Design Landscape Design Status: Ongoing Team: Indigo ArchitectsUday Andhare Mausami Andhare Anurag Rajput Aayush Vira Location: Vadsar, Gujarat
77
The site is a large expanse in a small village- Vadsar, some forty kilometres north-west of Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The house is a weekend home for a Gujarati family living in Ahmedabad having an ancestral land in the village. The home is supposed to be built for three brothers and their families. The family comprises of three generations, the youngest being eight and the eldest being seventy. The main components of the brief, apart from the usual requirements of a simple home, emphasized the need to be self-sufficient with water, thermal comfort, use of appropriate materials that would essentially demand low maintenance and cost
effectiveness. The brief also specified their wish to have small parcels of land for farming and gardening. The building sits on the highest point on the site. The ground floor plan largely consists of four zones- i. zone for living, dining and sleeping, ii. zone for servants and their families, iii. parking zone and iv. court with a small temple. The ground floor has four bedrooms, a lounge and a large living and dining space which opens out onto a deck in the south-west. The house features an internal courtyard with a water pool along one of its edges. The first floor contains a guest bedroom, a living space, a swimming pool, a gymnasium and an area for gardening. The landscape for the site
is planned in the Miyawaki technique, wherein various native species of plants are planted close to each other so that the greens receive sunlight only from the top and grow upwards than sideways. Work Done: Preparation of- plan layouts, presentation drawings, 3D views, physical models and basic resolution of structural systems.

Keri 2.0 A boutique store in the heart of Ahmedabad city selling handmade, finely detailed garment products for the elite of the city.
2019 Professional Project Project Type: Commercial Scope: Interior Design Status: Completed Team: Indigo ArchitectsUday Andhare Mausami Andhare Anurag Rajput Aayush Vira Location: Ahmedabad, Gujarat
83
Two levels of a narrow building fronting one of the major arterial roads of the city, were selected to house the flagship store of the retail brand ‘Keri’. A popular cafe on the ground floor set the tone for a relaxed and laidback atmosphere for the store on the upper floors. Accessed through a metal and bamboo pergola, the shop was designed to integrate the extensive trees and vistas into the interior space. Enhanced by hung metal details and monotone of light wood and cane as primary material palette, the finely detailed garments of Keri get suitably highlighted. The minimal details of furniture help retain the focus on the garments. The space enjoys natural light from three sides for almost all
throughout the day. A large window facing the main road acts as a nice display area for the pedestrains to have a glimpse of the products sold. Free flowing geometry of the hung racks contrasts with the taciturn and prosaic nature of the building. The project had a tight deadline and had to be completed within a short span of five weeks including ideation and design development. The project features display areas, two changing rooms and a billing counter. Since the space is a rented space, most furniture and fittings are designed in such way that they can be unmounted/taken off to a new location within a day or two. Multiple floor layouts were prepared and analysed
to arrive upon a feasible layout with ample space to manoeuvre. Work Done: Preparation of- drawings for concept and design development, 3D views and renders, formal iterations for multiple plan layouts and measured drawings of the site.

The Dastoor Meherjirana (D.M.) library was established in the town of Navsari, Gujarat, in the year 1872 CE, as the second Parsi library in India to be open to public and has been continuously serving the scholarly community since the last 148 years. A Parsi philanthropist based in Mumbai, commissioned the building to be built on his own land in Navsari. It is a home to numerous manuscripts written in Avestan, Pahlavi, Pazand, Persian, Sanskrit, Urdu andt Gujarati languages. Since its inception, the library has served various local communities of Navsari and is continuously visited by international scholars interested in Zoroastrianism. The library complex consists
of three parts. The old building, is two stories tall and contains most of the library’s printed books and periodicals, as well as reading tables for general public. An annexe to this building was built in the year 1966, housing additional books, as well as the head librarian’s office, where a microfilm reader and microfilms of almost all the manuscripts are kept. A new four storey building has been constructed adjoining the library and is fully equipped with a conservation laboratory, some other public resource areas and residential accommodation for visiting scholars. A condition survey report was prepared to assess the physical state of the library. The study
was aimed to provide technical analysis and condition details to carry out any remedial or preventive maintenance or repairs in the future. Work Done: Preparation ofdetailed measured drawings (plans, sections, elevations, wall sections, and door/window details), presentation report and site documentation.
