Thesis 2013 Bridging the gap


Village surrounded by fields

Before the village is urbanized, a zone of transition is developed along the fringes

The urban village merges into the city grid

The thesis intent was to create and develop a zone of transition along the fringe of an urban village in order to merge it with the surrounding urban landscape. This buffer will provide the infrastructure required for economic, social and physical integration with the developing city. Village Sorkha (in NOIDA) has been chosen as the demonstration site and is in the midst of its transition into the city. This thesis focuses on two aspects The Macro---A concept masterplan of the zone of transition around the village The Micro---A demonstration of the typology of architecture to be practiced within this zone; this has been done by selecting a small site within the masterplan which houses a Cultural centre and Vocational training institute.

Diagram showing the problems at the interface of the village and city leading to a slum condition

Seminar “Context in a contest” - Synopsis An architectural work is always placed and hence, judged in a context. The recent phenomenon of the strangely similar, massive, glitzy monoliths housing the corporates and IT /ITES offices across Pune, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Gurgaon, Chennai, Sydney, Guangzhou, Manila, Hong Kong and Brasilia. Aren’t these easily interchangeable, do any of these locations make a difference? How does one now define ‘context’ when globalization and urbanization tends to paint all in the same colour, and everything with the same brush. Everyone is everywhere, and seemingly for the same purpose. When the edges get blurred, would ‘blandness’ and ‘lack of character’ be the order? Is this a new ‘convenient’, and a reductive interpretation of contexts? What will be the evolved view of this new context?

Introduction

A

n architectural work is always placed and hence, judged in a context. For it to be relevant or irrelevant, or to be somewhere in between, would depend on how well the ‘general situation’ has been recognized, understood and interpreted through design. Until recent times, architecture anywhere could be expected to reflect the local climate, resources and technology available. In other words, architecture was “of- the-place” or what we understand as vernacular or traditional. By this notion, architecture had acquired its unique temporal values making it sensitive to its environs. Building in context primarily meant to satisfy the climate, site and local culture/tradition with local resources and skilled labour. This naturally meant that architecture was a region-specific practice. However, that “good” architecture is from the land, by the land and of the land is a notion of the past. Looking at Fig. 3 and 4 , one can infer that each of these buildings are distinct and exhibit a strong local/ regional flavour.

Can these buildings be located? (Fig 5) They speak of an urban present and are perhaps even indicative of their function but what about place or time? We work in these places, we reside in them. For a majority of city dwellers like us, these seemingly anonymous buildings make up our lives.

All these buildings seem to have nothing in common with each other and yet all of them exist today, maybe even in the same city or precinct! All these observations lead to the question “What is context today?”

Another response is the METI School in Bangladesh, it shows how new and refreshing local identity can be achieved by utilising the immediate and the readily available.

Volunteer German architects Anna Heringer and Eike Roswag developed the design concept by considering local cultural, economic and ecological aspects. Elegantly fusing local knowledge, renewable materials and new construction techniques, the project maintains a local identity while embracing modernity in both its form and purpose.
