Personal Space “House is a machine to live in�... Le Corbusier House is most personal and expensive commodity that we own. It is a sphere of our being, it is more than a shealter or refuge. And for an artist, a house is his expression of his inner self. A typical housing typology is a box with pitched roof on it. A conatined space with windows and door cracks for relief. The main purpose of house was to take this geometry, and interpreat its as a piece of art, a visual personna of life that he breathes. So the typical house section (box with triangle) was repeated along the arms of the building profile. Each profile curve with sucessive steps got skewed, changed its scale and transformed to create a generative pattern. The different shaped allowed for inperfections (cracks of door/ windows on walls) that allowed the outside environment to become unified with the spatial interiors, a realm of confusion and fiction of time.

INFO CAFE MEHRAULI
Second Iteration
Third Iteration
Mehrauli is a historic region in Delhi. It is a tourist hub and home to more than 100 monuments. This information cafe caters to the need of tourist, researchers and general visitors. It is has facilites like library, exhibition, information desk which showcase documentation of the region. Various inferences from the region was studied, involving material, design characteristic, visual texture etc. Architectural expression, combine all these into a statement which ocillates in past, present and future. It is important for this cafe to act as an institutional and information hub and not to compete the ancient landscape of Mehrauli. The form combines the play of origami, geometry, voids, patterns and lights. Traditional Indian architecture has extensive use of jaali. The same profile of jaali is broken down in triangular frames in three dimension to create a vault or dome. A person inside the building will see triangular light patterns of different sizes on walls and floor which fit together with angular shape of walls.
Surface faces were extracted from the polyhedron. They were then folded and unfolded like origami. The various faces of polyhedron were combined to create the final roofing form.
Fourth Iteration
The triangle module were created with glass infills or opaque panels. This is the same system employed in design of jaali to create a semi open space. Light filters through these modules and cast patterns.
Roof development by repetition and folding of hexagonal polyhedron. Various repetion creates a self supporting geometry

Arena Landscape
Located in Noida, this senior secondary school is visited by 700 students each day. Schools are generally designed as rows of rooms arranged around a courtyard. This is an effective stratergy in controlling movements of students. The same design stratergy is used in a different context. The building, along with its class rooms and other facilites are divided into three separate zones to dilute the noise levels overall. The geometry diverges with each other to scatter the sound generated. It creates a central circulation space that connects focus to corners of the plot through visual axis. The 3 blocks are given couryards and corridors. Each block is then connected with each other on higher levels converting the open space into a larger and more secure courtyard. This could be an informal space where studnets and tachers can interact outside their class rooms or a place where they can socialise, show resentment with school authority or stage a performance. This is essential part of creating intellect and personality.

Location: Delhi, India Andrews Gunj is prime real estate located in South of Delhi. In the recent decade, Delhi has experienced rapid economic development and urbanization leading to a population growth of 21 per cent. This has surged demand of mass housing and re-densification of the existing residential area. This 5 Acre land area houses 700 families and provides all necessary service like ample open spaces, green boulevards, commercial centre and community center to foster a sustainable environment and community engagement. It also caters to the complexities involved in transport, security, pollution and accessibility. Built masses are segregated to accomodate different famaly sizes. Dwelling units range from 40sqm to 120sqmt in area. 20 percent of FAR is dedicated to Community Center and commercial center.

CHANDNI CHOWK GREENWAY
Location: Delhi, India Greenway explores historical precinct of Chandni Chowk and contemporary challenges it faces. Central Spine of Chandni Chowk experiences a high level of traffic congestion since Post independece of India. Greenway initiates the idea of traffic free street and focuses on Pedestrianization and mass transporation. Taking cues from historical documentation this new approach raises ground plane to elevated walkway and maximise the area for multi-purpose and recreational activities. Dedicated PRT corridor provides swift transportation across the street. Major Vehicular movement is divered through the underground subway.

MIGRANT CITY FOR FUTURE
Laboratories used for scientific research take many forms because of the differing requirements of specialists in the various fields of science and engineering. A physics laboratory might contain a particle accelerator or vacuum chamber, while a metallurgy laboratory could have apparatus for casting or refining metals or for testing their strength. A chemist or biologist might use a wet laboratory, while a psychologist’s laboratory might be a room with one-way mirrors and hidden cameras in which to observe behavior. Fundamental purpose of these labs in to facilitate the main research laboratory by providing specialized area dedicated to core research. These specialized area are collectively used by all the main research units as collective or shared resource. A startup company (startup or start-up) is an entrepreneurial venture typically describing newly emerged, fast-growing business. Definition of the startup usually refers to a company, a partnership or an organization designed to rapidly develop scalable business model.Often, startup companies deploy advanced technologies, such as Internet, communication, robotics, etc. These companies are generally involved in the design and implementation of the innovative processes of the development, validation and research for target markets.

Beyond Raahgiri- Analysis of CP, Delhi
Project : PM Museum Teen Murti, Architron Group Project Type : Competition Work Input : Presentation, Urban Design
Connaught place is the centre of Delhi. It hosts Raahgiri every Sunday morning. Streets and Roads are closed to the vehicles and area is completely pedestrianized. This is presently a time-based phenomenon. This research evaluates contexual use of spaces during Raahgiri using Space Syntax methodology developed by Bill Hillier. It also forms a relationship between different activities to different spatial nature.
