INA MARKET REDEVELOPEMENT
1
INA, New Delhi
Indian National Army Market and Mohan Singh Market are among the oldest (since 1963) markets, situated in South West Delhi that serves the city. Since 2000 , there have been various claims of redevelopment at INA by DDA and NDMC. The city is restructuring based on compact mixed - use development
A
called the Transit Oriented Development along new corridors of mass transportation. INA also confirs with the same. Redevelopment at INA market proposes to enhance the experience of the public realm beyond the existing retail/shopping, by the addition of synergic socio-cul
tural activities. Owing to thetransit oriented development, the site is to transform from a market place to a high density mixed use facility with 1) Retail 2) Restaurants and Cafes 3) Public Plaza & exhibition 4) Office spaces 5) Affordable Housing

MULTI MODAL TRANSIT HuB SARAI KALE KHAN, New Delhi
A strategic Transit Oriented Development in East Delhi connecting Sarai Kale Khan ISBT, Hazrat Nizammudin Metro Station and Railway Station through a commercial development.
OBJECTIVE The Project aims to transform the currently functioning Sarai Kale Kahn ISBT into a mixed used development that integrates the various modes of transport i.e., Bus, Railway and Metro (recently proposed) through a commercial development. This not just benifts the immediate users but also uplifts the adjoining areas.
MOVEMENT SYSTEM The redevelopment is conceived as a monolithic form with uniform facade to integrate multiple functions into single developmet. It profoundly focuses on verticality for efficiency and creating an urban identity To relate to the human scale and respect the context the form is made to step down at its center.
Vertical and horizontal division of different types of vehicles is done to ensure volumentric distribution and unobstructed flow for efficient functioning of ISBT and other allied functions of the development along with safe pedestrian zone.

The project was formulated with the intension of experimenting ‘Housing’ on the hills for retired professionals from busy metro-politan cities. The project proceeded by increasing the density from 30-50-100-200 houses.
The variations in the unit plan promoted community interactions. The idea to step back at every level was an attemp to get closer to the ground so that every pot could have a small garden attached to ones place.

Special care has been taken to ensure that all the rooms are well ventilated and sunlit during day time. Attension has been paid so that the master bedroom recieves south sun and an unobstructed view.
The main concept of designing the housing cluster was to form both inter- community and intracommunity social spaces while at the same time preserving the view of the valley and open areas with southern sun penetration in the open areas. During the course of which various types of clusters and units were desinged to satisfying the density requirement. Special attention was paid towards preserving the essense of openness and connection with the nature durinig the process of design. Special care was taken not to over build the terrain. Major challenge was to bring the road down as the terrain was quite steep. A slope of 1:10 is maintained along the length of the road. Retaining walls were designed at a minimum distance of 2m from the building. The buildings were plaed along the terrain while exploiting the opportunity to set back as we move higher in building height.

COMMUNITY CENTER
The design studio was intended to explore a small town in Uttrakhand to identify and fabricate a community center that housed activities necessary for the immediate context.
FORM:
The form of the building was inspired by children’s play area so as to arise curiosity and a sense of likeness towards the building in the children.
CONSTRUCTION:
The regular geometry, Kath Kunni method of construction, Dhajji Dewari method of construction is used in this building so as to check earthquake, because the site is located in seismic zone 5.
BARLOWGUNJ, UTTRAKHAND
PASSIVE STRATEGIES:
Techniques of thermal insulation, attic floor construction, southern bay windows are adopted to passively maintain the indoor temperature.
ZONING:
The site was adjacent to major roads within the town. The plot shared its boundaries with a primary school for kids. Hence, the site could be viewed as an extended facility for the kids. The functions catering to kids are on the first floor, because during the cold season the ground floor temperature drops as it receieves lower amount of sunlight compared to the upper storey.
DESIGNED in association with Rina
KATH KUNNI: (Construction of lower storey) Alternate layers of construction dissipated seismic energy and prevent the structure from fall
DHAJJI DEWARI:(Construction of upper storey) Earthquake resistant light weight construction technique, infilled stones and bricks viberate to dissepate energy. The structure stays intact while the infill material may fall out

The aim was to achieve an all weather comfortable pre function for an auditorium through passive strstegies. The form of the building has been straggered to device a mutually shading technique. Vertical fins and limited opening are used in the envelop of the building. Cavity wall is used as the strutural element along with the use of mosaics on the western wall and roofs to refect off the sunlight, in order to reduce heat gain.

PLANNING & FORM
Staggered form has been used to provide mutual shading and reduce the intake of north- western sun. Entrance lobby is towards the north, hence has glare free light and remains cool due to double heighted space. The cafe has a larger northern facade with ample opening and completely blocked western facade to maintain temperature.
Mosaic cladding is used to reflect heat, with less of low heighted windows
Maximum opening to allow glare free northlight, use of vertical fins to cut hot noth- western sunlight.

ABSTRACT The research work ‘Formulations of the informal ‘is an attempt to decode the unpinned rules of informal street vending. It is an exploration of how the temporal or the kinetic elements of the city tend to fit into the interstices of the urban fabric. The vendors perspective is used to understand the aspects that support this activity in architectural terms. Both practical and theoretical studies facilitated a to and fro process of discovering the spatial attributes favouring vending.
After which three major factors a) Location, b) movement and c) organisation were drawn out to describe desirable features that ensure creation of a successful informal market. When we understand the key factors that make the survival of these vendors,
METHODOLOGY
JANPATH MARKET
we can plan and modify places into those that consider them as a part of the space. This on one hand will give them rights to earn and also sort out any problems of congestion that occurs due to their presence.
Janpath Market is situated at the heart of Delhi. It is also at a close proximity to Janpath Metro Station
Vending is highly a people seeking activity. Hence, places dominated by large and diverse population with easy access is ideal for a successful informal market
place. Areas nearing the heart of a city with well establish network that support mixed use functions are thriving hubs for temporary commercial activity.
FORMULATIONS OF THE INFORMAL
STREET VENDORS IN THE CITY FABRIC Pedestrian footfall is a key factor that sustains an informal market for a prolonged period of time. Locations that are to - movement or through - movement zones form the spine supporting vending activities in an urban network. Various urban elements like nodes, pathways along landmarks, positive outdoor space, incidental spaces and blank frontages act as buffers in the city which give them a space to mushroom. They tend to activate these spaces which otherwise may be considered as a negative or waste space in the city.
Mapping of Street Vendors in Janpath Road (Linear movement pattern ) CLUSTERING The products are organised in a manner that all variety of products targetting one customer base is organised in a cluster
Customer’s movement pattern generated must provide clarity and ease to explore products. Therefore, linear movement, complex networks, radial movement and paths guided by receptive nodes generate these favourable patterns easy to comprehend, with a sense of mystery to initiate exploration The planners and architects can provides the vendors with well designed interstices to fit in. Encouraging temporal urban structure will render an extremely unique city/country image in the current face of increasing gentrification.

image of a city ettumanoor , kerala
Kevin Lynch uses 5 principles that help a person develop the mental image of the city. These elements namely paths, districts, edges, nodes and landmarks add imageability to a place. These help people in forming patterns to navigate through any place. Any city can be described on the basis of these elements. The following research analysis the urban elements of Ettumanoor, a town in Kottayam District in Kerala according to Lynch’s principles.
NODES
Ettumanoor is a Tier I town (having a population more than 10 lakhs) and municipality at the heart of Kottyam district of Kerala, India. Kottayam is the only district not sharing border with either the Arabian Sea or the Western Ghats. It is the house of panoramic backwater stretches, lush paddy fields, highlands, hills and hillocks and rubber plantations along with a 100% literacy rate. Hence entitled as ‘the land of letters, legends, latex and lakes’.
