RS THE URBAN BACKYARD
CIRCULAR QUAY, SYDNEY
The project deals with the reuse of an unwanted corridor of the city - The Cahill Expressway and how an undesired piece of infrastructure be recycled to better serve the city rather than tearing it down. It also explores the lack of green spaces in high rise buildings and reedems them not as luxury but as a necessity.

liveable cities By 2050, 70% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas and many cities across the world are struggling to provide enough green cover to cope with pressure from a rapidly increasing population.
The City has 72 ha of open space
72% City Parks less than 3000m2

Although, Sydney has a fair amount of green space in the City Centre (74,000 m2) there tends to be weak connections in between them. The existing open spaces are scattered across the city and although they cover most of the City Centre they do not constitute a connected network for users to enjoy.

Pseudo ground levels spread across a high rise building can develop a sense of community living at such heights.
As buildings are getting higher, the connection with the ground plane is getting distant.

‘how the harbour looks from the city’ “The expressways location reveals the all-hail dominance of mobility in mid- century Sydney, its design avoids any hint of the dynamic, ditching the urgent aesthetic of the moment for dull municipal togs that belie its function as well as its moment in history”- Elizabeth Farrelly,2002

Cahill Expressway - Sydney’s
eyesore
research question On average you spent 40% of your walking time, waiting at signals
We need to string the public networks to form a interconnected city centre
The Cahill Expressway has been Sydney’s eyesore for years.
Overcongestion occurs due to lack of segregation of transit and leisure
Residencies in the CBD are being used just as a means of investment

How can we make Sydney, a city pleasurable for walking?
How can we link the green and public spaces in the city?
How can we deal with the Cahill Expressway sustainably?
How can we retain and recycle an undesired elevated corridor of the city to connect and interlink green spaces and integrate a healthy suburbian lifestyle into city apartments?
How can we distinguish the transit and leisure movements?
How can we integrate a healthy suburbian lifestyle into city apartments

The project intends to restore the belief that ‘Circular Quay belongs to the city’ and end its dominance by vehicular mobility.

CAHILL EXPRESSWAY : A BARRIER
UNFAVORABLE FOR WALKING
The Cahill expressway blocks the city from the harbour.
Alfred street is surrounded by transit which creates noise pollution and degrades the ambience for pleasure walks.
CAHILL DIVIDES PUBLIC PARKS
CAHILL DIVIDES PUBLIC SPACES
Cahill Expressway creates a rift between First Fleet park and the Royal Botanical Gardens. There is an entrance at the botanical garden end but none near the fleet park.
It acts as a barrier in a cultural rich environment breaching visual connectivity between the Customs House, MCA and the Sydney Opra House.
proposed strategies....
RETAIN & GREEN IT Greening the Cahill expressway can breathe new life into a public spaces dominated by vehicular mobility for decades.

LEISURE ON TOP; TRANSIT AT THE BOTTOM The green walkway will restore activities at Alfred street without the transit chaos
CONNECT PUBLIC PARKS
CONNECT PUBLIC SPACES
The walkway will act as a bridge between the public parks and improve the green network.
The elevated platform will enable visitors to get a complete view of the harbour.

The project aims to provide backyards not only for people living in the building but letting out space to the city dwellers who find themselves devoid of their ‘individual backyards’. People can rent or lease these spaces for a limited time to host picnics or Sunday barbecues up in the sky with view to the two icons of Australia.

DS HYBRID DEVELOPMENT - HIGH PERFORMANCE DESIGN STUDIO
MARTIN PLACE, SYDNEY
As 40% of all our energy costs are tied in buildings, it is high time we adopt to new technologies in building design and construction to be energy efficient. The challenges of global warming ,pollution and population explosion have directly impacted our energy resources. This growing trend would be catostrophic for the future generations to come. In Australia and globally, climate change, transportation and the cost of energy are driving a growing need for the design and construction of high performance buildings which accomodate multiple uses, support greater density while being climate approriate and energy efficient.

Martin Place lacks a life of its own apart from the ‘9-5’ Business hours. It is a “room” within the city but it fails to attract people during weekends. The aim of the design is to bring people into Martin Place throughout the year. The introduction of an Public Art Gallery at the site, would sync all the activities currently hapenning at Martin Place into one reference point. Although, the Art Gallery of New South Wales is in close proximity to the site, the inclusion of such a facility in a culturally rich backdrop will be greatly beneficial to the site.
MEDICAL AMENITIES AROUND THE SITE The site is in close proximity to a number of medical amenities : nursing clinics and hospitals. Most of the nurses or hospital staff who work here have to travel for about an hour on average every day to work. Thus providing affordable housing for them would greatly save them time and money and motivate them to work in the service industry.

DD NURTURING CHILDHOOD - INTEGRATED SCHOOL FOR THE VISUALLY CHALLENGED
KHARGHAR, NAVI MUMBAI
The loss of vision is regarded as the worst case of disability for a person to function individually. Childhood blindness has become a global health problem. Through this dissertation i have tried to curb the root of this social injustice in terms of education – isolation. The school aims towards providing integrated education, a common fore ground for all children to educate themselves without being discriminated. Along with it, it also provides a training centre for blind adults to acquire skills to be self dependent. 25 25

sens(e)ible design COLOUR
The loss of vision is regarded as the worst case of disability for a person to function individually. It can interfere with the process of learning and adapting to newer environments and steadily decrease a persons mobility
In relation to design considerations, visually impaired people are divided in 2 categories : 26
LIGHTING
Be consistent in the use of colour to distinguish surfaces throughout. eg. floors, doors, staircase.
Maintain light levels throughout different spaces as it is difficult for low vision people to adjust.
26
SMELL
Smell can help assist a visually impaired person.
How can architecture help? LOW VISION
When they use buildings, rely quite entirely on their ability to see.
BLIND
When they use buildings ,rely entirely on other senses such as touch, smell & hearing.
TEXTURE
Using detectable warning surfaces which can be felt by feet or hand.
LEGIBILITY
ACOUSTICS
Providing different reverberation especially for floors so that visually impaired can obtain a feel of the space.
It is the degree to which a building is understandable.
idelogy & design standards
The following design standards have been tabulated from observations and analysis of case studies from Blind People’s Association (Ahmedabad,India), Helen Keller Institute for the deaf and deaf Blind (Navi Mumbai,India), Kamla Mehta School for the blind (Mumbai,India) and National Association For the Blind (Mumbai,India)

passage/ lobby
27 27
Standard 1.5-1.8M wide pasages allow acces to adjacent rooms.
A 2.4M wide passage with consistent colours would allow navigation easily.
Niches on the adjoining wall would guide the blind individual.
A combination of the 3 would create an ideal navigation system for all.
A passage of light between book shelves helps them identify things better.
Symmetry in planning help the blind understand spaces better.
Symmetry ,more natural light, ventilation and looping.
library Standard arrangement of tables and bookshelves in a library
the ramp View of Central School Ramp
Many a times, we design a building and to make it handicap accessible we stick a ramp next to it. This is very similar to people’s outlook towards the disabled community who consider them as a burden to society. Thus, the ramp represents the disabled people. In this design, I have treated the ramp as an integral part of the design as it represents the people who the structure truely belongs to.
