MUSEUM OF MODERN ARTS SEMESTER 6
Site : Congress Ground, Mount Road, Chennai
6
In the past few years, a number of modern heritage structures were taken down and replaced with commercial glass towers, wiping out memories of places that generations grew up with. After four decades of rapid urbanization, cities in INDIA are in danger of losing their social and cultural identities Museum Of Modern Arts, when a person say museum, we all remember about the arts, culture and heritage of the place, which had been protected and displayed forever. This museum is designed where people can share their thoughts about the society and the living of the people.

NIFT CAMPUS SEMESTER 7
Site : HI TECH CITY, HYDERABAD

Like architecture, fashion is an art dealing with structure and shape, one that relates to the form and function of the human body. Oftentimes the introduction of a small element, such as a zipper or a doorknob, can completely alter the perception of a work. This campus design proposal is for NIFT (National Institute of Fashion Technology). The site is located in Amaravathi, Hyderabad. A campus is a place where the students stay and learn, helps them to be creative in their work and make them feel homely. The NIFT is a place where students should reach beyond their imagination to make trend setting fashion, this can be achieved if the place where they study supports them to do so.
