South Downtown- Arts District Team: Meredith Blakeley Lu Pang Animesh Shrestha The area around Garnett Station in South Downtown is currently mostly surface parking lots. There are many jobs in the area but the employees are commuting from other areas of the city. The primary goal of the revival of this area is to bring in residents. With the arrival of autonomous vehicles, the parking lots can be redeveloped into residential units and commercial space. To address the needs of family residents green space and a school are included in our proposal. The green space provides water purification and activity space. To connect the area to its surroundings the secondary focus of the revival is to include the arts. The proposed school is an arts school with facilities that are open to the community. Providing affordable housing and work space for artists is part of the reason for keeping the building scale low. One hindrance to development currently is the small lot size and the requirement for parking. With driver-less vehicles and the public transportation system in the area this requirement can be eliminated and each parcel can be developed individually. The MARTA station plaza, sided by commercial space and residential units, is for gathering and activities throughout the day. Reference of the building image in the background: “City Blocks in Downtown Denver by el dorado�.

“The Re-Connector”- ULI HINES DESIGN COMPETITION Team: Animesh Shrestha Deepti Silwal Gustavo Amaral Jeff Olson Jose Sosa Borerro Atlanta has been known as the poster child of suburbia sprawl. Although, as it is stated by Leinberger and Alexander since the mid 1990´s this reality has been changing with the development of walkable clusters both in the city and also in some suburban neighborhoods defined by the authors as Walk-ups. The emergence of walkups in the city of Atlanta is a combined comprehension of demographic changes, financial system, a better perception of the public transportation importance to the general economy and the issues related to sustainability, representing a transformation on the real estate market that has pushed developers and stakeholders to invest on walkable urbanism. The re-connector is a redevelopment plan that focus of the transformation of the Midtown´s blocks that are located between west Peachtree St. and Interstate I-75/85. The central idea of the redevelopment plan is consonant with the larger process of redevelopment in the Midtown area with the construction of diverse, mixed and well connected communities. With that in mind the proposal starts with the reconnection of Williams Street in a design strategy to reconsolidate the spatial structure of Midtown´s urban grid, generating store frontage and complete walkable streets.

Rendering of the Central Water Park
Eco Water City- Chongming Island Team: Animesh Shrestha Jeremy Gentry Ashley Nicole The whole city is divided into 3 neighborhoods, all having the same amenities such as the water purification canals which purifies the water but dierent spaces and design. The main concept is to purify the existing river water which flow through the city from delta river and use it for farming and recreational purposes. The purification canals consists of filtration vegetation that slows the flow of water and hence purifies the water as shown in the diagram below. Water pumps will be used to pump water and the roots of the vegetation will eliminate harmful bacterias. As water reaches the high density zone, the water becomes clean and the people can enjoy and use the clean water. Each neighborhood will have their own clean lake, and a central park so that the people of the neighborhood can enjoy the amenities that are in walking distance. The site has farmlands and marshland at the bottom, near to the delta river, therefore the flood will not aect the house and people living in the city.

Water purification sequence The impure canal water is purified by a natural water purification sequence. As the water moves along the canal, it is slowly purified by the roots of plants and trees such as reeds, Cyprus, and lily. Also, the water flows in a zigzag way slowing the water flow which sediments the impurities. Finally, the pure water reaches the clean lake. And the clean water is used for various purposes in the city.

Kamishibai Illustration A form of Japanese street theatre and storytelling that was popular during the Depression of the 1930s and the post-war period in Japan until the advent of television during the twentieth century.
Making Children First Class Citizen TOWARDS A MIDDLE-OUT URBANISM- ARCHIPRIX WORKSHOP-2015 Team: Marina Caprini Cezar Bento José Carlos Castros Barros Jose Andres Coba Willian Moisés González Armas Hameda Yousef Janahi
Daniela Mitterberger Gabriel Munoz Moreno Shristina Shrestha Animesh Shrestha Zheng Zhou
Making Children First Class Citizen focuses on the design and fabrication of a set of way finding signals, urban equipment and three dimensional map allowing children to bike, walk and play safely and happily in the streets of the designated area in Madrid. In Madrid, the process of free time becoming consumption time started in the second half of the nineteenth century. That process threw the concept of public space into crisis as it started to be conceived not only as an element for exercising (political) control, but also one for financial gain. Thus, cities started to become the objects of rational and utilitarian planning, where the field of architecture was redefined. Then the children, agents only participating in the industrial and economical development of Europe as false adults, became second class citizens. The public space was to transport and provide, to buy and sell. Gradually the car succeeded owning the city threatening children even physically. For years, cities were not recognizing any right for children. The main goal of this project is to empower children to gain independence by providing children with knowledge and movement and breaking physical, virtual and socio-cultural and economic borders.

AutoComplex RECOGNITION: 2014 Dr. S. B. Mathe B. Arch. best Thesis Award 2014 National FineArts Award for Architecture Nominated for 2015 Archiprix International - Worlds Best Graduation Projects Auto complex- a building for automobiles, the concept for the design is taken as the perception of an automobile itself. A form is developed that resembles the automobile for which the building is designed. Creating an iconic building of the city is also the main objective of the project. Therefore, some composition of dierent geometric forms is considered, which makes the building easily recognizable. The plan form is composition of simple geometric form such as oval, circle and rectangles. The value of the current project is enormous, considering the location and the surroundings. Therefore, it has been a design eort to make the form as iconic as possible. It has to put the Kathmandu, Nepal’s map in the world.

Braka is one of the most interesting villages of th Annapurna circuit with a beautiful old white Gompa. In common with other villages of this area, many of Brakka’s old houses are not inhabited anymore as the people moved to warmer places. The villagers decided in 2011 that they wanted to keep the village in the old style and there are plans to improve it. This resort aim to create a resting area in this exquisite place with 15 rooms. Local stone material is used because of the diďŹƒcult to bring other materials to such a remote area.

High Rise Aparment Tower Designed on a imaginary site,This was a project done in 3D Modeling Revit Class in Georgia Tech. The course Introduced REVIT and the concepts of Building Information Modelling (BIM), which provides an object based parametric modeling environment. The project has 180 bedroom apartment units ranging from a single bedroom unit, double bedroom unit and a triple bedroom duplex unit. An imaginary site was considered with a slope topography in an urban setting. The main idea for the design is to have a parametric facades using the parametric designing capabilities of Revit Architecture. Custom families, Customs facade, parametric louvers are created to learn about the capability of Revit. Precedence for the parametric balcony is taken from Aqua tower, Chicago.
