CAFE REDESIGN - INTERIOR DESIGN PROJECT
4th Year
6
LOCATION : MANIPAL Total Built up area: 228 sqm
The idea of this project is to create a self service cafe with an atmosphere which is totally in contrast with all the other spaces which is part of our day to day lives. This contrasting atmosphere can help the users to take a break from their busy life. The main concept is to have a complex structure which is very light at the same time. Simple lines are used to create a complex nature by creating an interesting pattern. The pattern is designed in such a way that- from one point the view of the cables are organised and from another the cable seems very irregular. The tables are suspended by cables. A similar concept is used for the ceiling by using cables to create an organic shape. Simple lines are used to create a harmonious structure as a pattern for the ceiling.

DESIGN FACTORS Since the cafe is situated near Manipal University , Students will be the primary users. Separate informal seating areas are provided for the students. These spaces are separated using partition walls. According to the requirements the interior space is divided into the cafe and tattoo parlour. Waiting area is used as a buffer space between these functions. A

CEILING DESIGN The ceiling is created by cables tied in a basic steel frame.
The base geometry of the ceiling is created by using a triangular prism - the 3 edges becomes the main supporting structure which is ďŹ xed to the wall. Threaded rods are used to connect these edges in an alternating pattern in one face of the prism. Triangular prism Cables in Tension The cables are tied on the threaded rod in a continuous manner which results in the harmonious shape.

2nd Year
Location : Kerala Total Built up area : 545 sqm
The site is located in kerala. Which has a warm and humid climate. So cross ventilation is one of the main factor which lead to this design. The site has a sloping terrain. The slope is towards the southwest direction. The form of the building is derived by the terrain, the sloping character of the site is used in the design to create various levels in the landscape. Since 1/3 rd of the house is covered in soil, the space inside the house will have a cooling effect.

ATTIC SPACE
One of the main challenges of this project was to create the skylight. The skylight is achieved by creating a separate hollow cuboid. which is rotated in 45degrees to capture the northern light. The skylight is placed right above the entrance and only one supporting wall is given. The structural load has to be supported by this wall.

The structure is inspired by nature. Which resulted in the organic form. One of the key element in this design is the flow of water as seen in nature, This is achieved by using corrugated sheets cut into an ellipse. These layers are oriented in such a way that the rain water flows from layer to layer at the end the water is collected by a channel.

Pune has a hot semi-arid climate. The Site is located on a less vegetated area. SITE
The site is situated next to a lake. Due to the climatic factors there will be high heat load on the building. To decrease the heat load a secondary skin system is designed. The Layers are oriented in such a way to achieve a self shading mechanism on the building. Wind direction is one of the design factor which lead to the orientation

The building is oriented in such a way that the wind load exerted on the building is minimum and the view towards the lake is not compromised. Only diffused sunlight is used inside the building. The direct sunlight is blocked by the layers. Since direct sunlight increases heat load in the building. At the same time view from the building towards the landscape is not compromised.

Concept of Self shading The layers are designed in such a way that the building gets shaded most of the time except when the sun is exactly perpendicular to the building. which is only few minutes. Only during this time the HVAC load will be higher. These Layers can be made by RCC precast.
Organic form converted to layers The distance between each layer is 1.5meters

The structure is inspired from nature. The geometry hexagon is commonly seen in nature such as in honeycomb, snowakes etc The shape hexagon can circumscribe the largest area for a given perimeter. Hexagon is used as the basic unit in this design. A series of hexagons of varying dimensions are used. Two parameters (radius of the hexagon and the extruded dimension of each unit) is gradually varying. In overall the gradual change in the dimensions creates a harmonious pattern. The hexagonal units on the bottom part are extruded to create seating space. Similarly the other hexagonal units are used for various functions such as storage, lighting , poster display space and waste bin.
