ASSETZ SHARONIKA APARTMENTS, BANGALORE This residential project in Bangalore consists of three and four BHK luxurious flats rising upto ten storeys. the site is characterized with lush greenery and large trees which add value in terms of the overall experimental quality providing great opportunity to create spaces banking on the various experiences a tree can offer. The vision is: Tree as an experience. Different programs that constitute a home interacting with the tree individually and together forming an intimate and warm relationship with each other. The distribution of units is directly influenced by the focal points created by the existing trees on site. A dual core system allows each unit to view in at least two directions, thus allowing ample cross ventilation throughout. the dwelling units are inserted in between two communal zones on the ground and the roof. This creates a large public forum on the ground and the terrace thereby maximizing the relationship to the trees and the views.
MY ROLE I worked on the floor plans of the building. My major work was to develop a model of perforated MS column cover for covering three 500 x 1000 mm RC columns incorporating plumbing drains situated in the middle of the building. Due to the massive scale of the column, they look very bulky and contradict the transparency of the space. Hence covering them with perforated sheet can decrease the bulk and even contribute to aesthetics.

MAULANA AZAD UNIVERSITY, JODHPUR This is an institutional project in Gram Bujawar, Tehsil Luni, District Jodhpur. Located in the outskirts of the city, this College campus broadly consists of lecture hall buildings, admistrative block , auditorium and public gathering spaces. The site is sloped raising towards north. I worked with the initial designed spaces which included the two identical Lecture hall buildings facing each other. The design of the campus is strongly symmetrical and follows principles of Islamic architecture in its design and aesthetic aspects. It incorporates Islamic arches and Jalis. Also due to harsh sunlight, Jali screens are designed at the east and west facades. Also the southern facade encompasses vertical shading devices to cut down direct sunlight. Courtyard planning is followed with three courtyards in each building.

MY ROLE I majorly worked in developing the 3d model of the Lecture Hall buildings using Google sketchup.pa Apart from this I worked out the details of the entrance portico of the Lecture hall buildings. There are two such entrances in each building which are stepped from three sides and incorporate Islamic arches and Jali work which makes it a good seating space too . SOUTH ELEVATION

SHRIPATI MEHTA’S RESIDENCE, JODHPUR It is a residential project in Shastri Nagar, Jodhpur. The firm worked to renovate the interiors of the already costructed house which was designed by this firm only. The renovation icluded furniture installations, light fixture installations, false ceiling etc. The interior work also included Jodhpuri stone work installations.
MY ROLE I worked on the details of a foldable panel provided at the entrance of a bedroom so as to give a visual barrier and provide privacy to the inmates. The panel is made of the Chittar i.e. Jodhpuri sandstone modules bordered by a wooden frame. The sandstone modular units are intricately carved into a jali and this panel acts as a beautiul interior element too alongwith serving its function.

SACRED GROVES AUROVILLE, TAMIL NADU THE PROTOTYPE HOUSE, SACRED GROVES Sacred Groves is an affordable housing project going on under the expertise of Architect Manu Gopalan. The project stands out, from other projects in Auroville or elsewhere in India as it is an ecological housing project which unlike other conventional projects doesn’t use concrete or even brick, but rather uses the dug out for the foundation etc dug out for the foundation etc. to make the houses. The work at Sacred groves is majorly powered by volunteers and Architectural interns and some hired labour from the neighbouring villages. The firm believes in an ecologically balanced and sustainable model of construction and has been researching on the endless possiblities in ecological development since our conception. While creating jobs for the locals, Sacred Groves also help Architects and students of Architecture better understand the materials they work with and empower them to be able to bring their wonderful ideas to life.
MY ROLE I majorly worked in aquaponics and developed plant beds made up of bamboo and some made of waste plastic boxes and installing bell siphons to regulate water flow. I was also involved in adobe brick making and laying, lime plastering of the outside walls and mud plastering of the the inside ones.

ADOBE BRICK MAKING AND LAYING
AQUAPONICS , SACRED GROVES
Adobe brick experiments started at Sacred-Groves site with an eagerness to see the completion of the Xaher house, a humble and pretty home being built on the lines of zero investment/’Build free’ concept. The sub soil 2ft underneath the ground was dug out at our own site. With the sedimentation test the soil was found to be good for construction. Different mixes were prepared with permutations and combinations of earth with fiber materials viz. long rice straw, chopped rice straw, rice husk and two combinations of rice husk and chopped rice straw (one with the ratio of rice husk and chopped rice straw being 1:2 and the other being 2:1) in the ratio of 6: 1 respectively. The mix was then filled in moulds of 3 different thicknesses that are 5cm, 6cm and 7cm and was dried under the sun. The combination with less rice husk and more straws revealed to be the strongest.
Aquaponics refers to any system that combines conventional aquaculture with hydroponics in a symbiotic environment. The aquaponics system was started at Sacred groves to realise the ‘waste is food’ concept. To achieve a way in which the recycled grey water can be used for rearing fishes and using the same water rich in nutrition for growing food, thus an attempt to close the loop of waste and food cycle in a systematic manner.

BACHELOR’S STUDIO DESIGN STUDIO I
2nd semester
The design statement was to design a studio house for a bachelor named Sam in a volume of 9 x 9 x 9 m with the theme: OUT OF BOX. The motive is to design a comfortable and suitable living space for an individual with dissolving walls in order to create spaces rather than solid closed rooms. The Studio house should accommodate all the required functions: sleeping, eating, cooking, working, gyming & exercising, relaxing etc. The Studio has essential spaces such as bed space, kitchenette & dining space, washrooms etc along with relaxing spaces such as living space, exercising space and a small water pool. The design has inner partitions rather than solid walls thereby increasing uidity and transparency within the spaces to support the theme.

CAFE COFFEE DAY INTERIOR DESIGN The design statement was to remodel the existing Cafe Coffee Day situated in Multi Activity Centre, IIT Roorkee. The interiors are influenced by the philosophy and works of the great painter Piet Mondrian. All the design elements are primarily influenced by De Stijl Art and have a hue of the painter due to the forms, shapes, colour and layout. The colour palette contains the colours: red, blue, yellow, black, white and grey. Smooth finish materials are used which include steel, slass, aluminium and PVC. The furnitures are solid with sharp edges and cuboidal in form. No false ceiling is created rather the beams are painted encouraging the painter’s theme. Colourful book shelves are provided in the cuboidal block with numerous books turning the space into a book cafe too.Also the floor tiles are primarily white with a few coloured tiles placed randomly in the white patch. Above all, the whole space is extensively theme oriented and provides a vivid and vibrant experience to its visitors.

CULTURAL CENTRE DESIGN STUDIO IV Located near the famous Dargah of Piran Kaliyar on the outskirts of the city of Roorkee, is the proposed Cultural Centre. The location is prime and is expected to experience a large footfall of visitors from nearby cities and also other tourists. There are numerous large mango trees within the site which have all been retained in the design. The centre includes an Auditorium for performance with a seating capacity of around 250 people along with an OAT with a seating capacity of around 350 people. A Gallery, Child and Youth Centre, Cafeteria, Dormitory and Administrative Office are other parts of the Centre. It is a universally acceptable design with easily accessible spaces with the help of slopes. The design is fluid and is serpentine in plan incorporating and merging one place with another going hand in hand with the flora around. Landscaping in the form of crescent shaped garden patches and water pools add to the aesthetics and compliment the context.

RESEARCH STATION DESIGN STUDIO VII The design statement was to design a year round functioning polar station in Antarctica of a capacity of 25 persons for the purpose of research which should include work areas, labs and living spaces for the researchers. The spaces fulďŹ ll all the requirements: Research and Work Infrastructure(Worksations, Labs, Storage, Discussion area, Communication, Control Room); Boarding and Lodging Infrastructure(Bed space, Dining & Cooking, Storage, Toilets); Gentral Services(Admin, Store, Multipurpose area, Emergency services, Reading room); Other Infrastructure(Power Room, Fuel Storage, Waste Management, Loading area). The design fwas initiated with the form of the research station and then incorporating the functions within it. The form is evolved from a simple cuboidal block which houses three main function of the station: Sleeping + Work + Leisure. All the functions inside the polar stationare clubbed in a uid manner with required segregation and required merging. Change in levels is encouraged in the design which increases visual interaction with outside and also turns the structure into a dynamic form.

INFILL DEVELOPMENT LIVE STUDIO I Urban infill is defined as new development that is sited on vacant or undeveloped land within an existing community, and that is enclosed by other types of development. The term "urban infill” implies that existing land is mostly built-out and what is being built is in effect "filling in" the gaps. The infill can be added to an existing structure, it can become a new layer over the old, it can permeate the voids of an irregular site, or it can simply fill an abandoned lot. The increasing popularity of urban infill presents a unique opportunity to improve how cities look and feel. However it also poses its own set of challenges. To do urban infill the right way, it’s essential to slow down and pay proper attention to the context of an urban environment. Further, the infill proposed needs to be judged not only on its ability to deliver profit, but also upon its potential to deliver economic, strategic and social value to a location. With this in mind live studio attempts to encourage productive dialogue around infill in selected areas in the city of Roorkee and sensitizes about the challenges involved therein as well as facilitate development of a sensitive context based design approach. The task includes: Documenting the different development patterns in the identified area in the city; Understanding the infill development that has taken place & is taking place in the identified study areas & the associated impacts; Analyzing the key drivers of and barriers (if any) to the infill development; Identifying potential sites for infill development.The chosen street length is a commercial stretch running from Pizza Hut near NH-58 upto Nagar Nigam Roorkee, located next to Solani bridge crossing. The street running upto 600 m has clusters of vegetation and has been encroached by vendors on both sides.
