Introduction We are happy to place before you, the 2022 edition of Studio Units Catalog, Spring Semester. This is the eighth in our catalog series. The objective is to compile, showcases and share the range of students’ projects from the studios of Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.), Bachelor of Design (B.Des.), Bachelor of Interior Design (B.I.D), Bachelor of Urban Design (B.U.D.) and Bachelor of Construction Technology (B.C.T.) CEPT’s revised pedagogy lays emphasis on the new Studio Unit system. Learning and teaching is centered on the studio units which comprises about 12 to 15 students. Each five-year undergraduate program is organized in three levels. A common one-year foundation is followed by Level 2 (L2) and Level 3 (L3) integrated studios. L2 studio comprises students from 2nd and 3rd year and L3 studio comprises 4th and 5th year students. The studio units have small groups of students led by one or two tutors, a greater curricular weightage in terms of credits and time, and a semester calendar which allows 4 weeks of uninterrupted studio work towards the end of the semester. The studios have a focused approach with specific learning outcomes. L1 studios (not part of this catalog) are focused on building foundational skills and abilities required for an architect, designer, urban designer, or an engineer. L2 studios clearly focus on developing one of the skills: Visualizing and Communicating, Analyzing and Designing, Constructing and Specifying, Planning and Organizing. In addition, all Level 2 units develop the skill for building arguments and rationales. In L3 studios, the students use multiple design abilities to solve complex design problems. Students develop the ability to exercise architectural/ design judgments. Design problems are defined based on a specific theme, approach (along with its rationale) or a theoretical position. The site, program and the area requirements may be defined by either the tutor or by the student. This catalog enables us to present consolidated outputs of our continued efforts. We hope to share them with the larger community that includes people interested in the built environment, and education, prospective students, alumni and professionals from the Industry. This semester, the evolving COVID situation allowed us to conduct all the studios on-campus for most of the time. Classes were conducted online for the initial weeks of the semester. Besides the online exhibition we are happy to have a full on-campus exhibition this time. This publication represents the work produced by around 620 of our students from 58 L2, L3 studio units taught by 90 faculty members and supported by 64 teaching associates and teaching assistants.

A typical architectural project comprises five steps: drawings, development, application, execution, and supervision. We generally describe them as conceptualization, design development, preparation of working drawings, estimation, and implementation. These key steps comprise the pre-construction stage of any architectural design project. The prime focus ofthis studiowas to provide Real-life exposure to architectural practice and construction processes.Itconcentratedonthesystematicapproach towards the development and execution of an idea, the in-between procedures, and tools (ensuring smooth execution of the project). The complete studio has been divided into three sections of design development, working drawings, and construction project estimation. This course was specifically designed for architects whowilleventuallyworkwith contractors and clients for their design and budgeting purposes. Through this course, students were exposed to the complete architectural/construction procedure, starting from the project to the execution stage. To make the most relevant concepts, real-life exposure, guest lectures, and case studies were specified.

Anand Sonecha The studio focuses on the Loving community in Vastral, formed in 1968 by people affected with leprosy, who have migrated from different parts of India. The neighborhood has 450 residents, from which a few still have reminiscences of the disease, even if cured. Most of the people living in this community work for factories nearby, drive rickshaws, and many beg on the streets. Today, around a hundred children are living in the community, their homes having a single room with families comprising ofup to six members.The houses don’t have enough space for the residents and no properspace forchildren to study.The studio centers on the design of a small children’s library. A place where theycan meet, study, orbe bythemselves and also act as a meeting point for children from different neighborhoods. The social stigma revolving around such communities pushes them towards isolation and they end up like islands in the social fabric of the city. The studio will trigger discussions on how these boundaries between the Loving communityand the neighborhood can be dissolved.The studio explores how equitable and inclusive spaces can be created, and discusses ways in which architecture can be a means to improve lives.

In the discipline of architecture, there are two kinds of spaces: one, which is static whose spatial quality shifts with the changes in the activities that take place in it, with the changing nature of light, with a change in its furniture layout, with the presence of various movement patterns and so on. Here the user, along with other natural external forces is in motion and the built form is stationary; two, which is dynamic in nature and transforms its spatial quality by moving/shifting/transforming itself through its envelope and/or the elements that make that very space. Here, the user is stationary while the built form is in motion. This studio primarily focused on the designing of the latter kind of spaces. Space Kinematics is at the intersection of space composition, spacemaking elements, spatial experience, mechanical understanding, and movements in nature as well as objects. The primary intention of this design studio was to design and develop space-making elements that move, slide, rotate, pivot, or display a combination of all to serve a specific purpose. The studio focused on developing logic of assembly processes forthe designed elements and sequential understanding of construction techniques for the students

The Climate Responsive Architecture studio is aimed at sensitizing students towards climate by understanding comfort zones within a building in its given climatic context and investigating ways to create architecture that emerges out of Passive Solar principles. The Studio demands a resolution of the building keeping in view a strong climate response. So essentially, the design problem was to design a building that exhibits an Environment responsive architecture. The studio works through an understanding of local climate, passive architectural features and material studies. A study initiated with Vernacular architecture of the surrounding and international passive solar buildings to gain insight into Passive solar technologies, their integration into built language and the use of local material. The design problem was that of an architect’s studio residence that exhibits both day and night usage. To explore a wider gamut of climate responsive architectural strategies, sites were taken in three different climatic zones; Cold & Dry (Leh), Hot & Humid (Mangalore) and Composite Extreme (Udaipur). Material selection and Form level ideas were validated through climate analysis and thermal simulation software to resolve efficient thermal and light conditions in buildings within their envelopes.

This project intends to investigate ‘processes’ in architectural design activity. One of the important components was to get the process of transformation through different levels of interpretation. The process of transformation involved metamorphosis of the experiential data into architectural form and space with the help of abstraction. Students were given an image/ natural object as a starting point of the process, and through various stages of the design process students arrived at final architectural form that reflects the famous statement made by D’Arcy Thompson in his seminal work ‘On Growth & Form’: Form is a Diagram of Forces. In order to achieve this, the project was divided in two parts: 1. ‘Abstraction’, involved developing abstract ideas from the topic. The ‘topic’ could be an object, a process or an activity occurring in nature that has a fascinating play of forces.. The ‘abstraction’ stage came to conclusion with the introduction of site and program, wherein students suggested the architectural form for the program with the help of derived models from ‘abstraction’ stage. 2. “Tectonics’, focused on developing the structural system, construction materials, and technology appropriate for the architectural form derived at the end of last stage. Physical/digital models and detailed drawings were used in order to arrive at the final built form,

BASILISK LIZARD

A B S T R A C T I O N

SELEC

FIN STRUCTURE

THE COMMON BASILISK CAN BE DISTINGUISHED FROM SIMILAR SPECIES WITHIN ITS RANGE BY ITS LARGE SIZE AND THE HIGH FIN-LIKE CREST ALONG ITS BACK. MOST COMMON BASILISKS ARE BROWN AND CREAM IN COLOR. MALES ALSO HAVE HIGH CRESTS ON THE HEAD AND TAIL. BOTH SEXES ARE BROWN TO OLIVE, AND HAVE A WHITE, CREAM, OR YELLOW STRIPE ON THE UPPER LIP AND A SECOND STRIPE ALONG EITHER SIDE OF THE BODY; THESE STRIPES HAVE HIGHER CONTRAST IN JUVENILES AND FADE AS THE LIZARDS AGE.

HATCHLINGS WEIGH A MERE 2 GRAMS (0.071 OZ) AND ARE 38 TO 43 MM (1.5 TO 1.7 IN) LONG. ADULTS CAN GROW TO A TOTAL LENGTH (INCLUDING TAIL) OF 76 CM (2.5 FEET). FEMALES ARE GENERALLY 135 TO 194 G (4.8 TO 6.8 OZ), AND WEIGH HALF AS MUCH AS MALES. THE TAIL COMPRISES 70 TO 75% OF THE TOTAL LENGTH: FOR EXAMPLE, A 70-CM-LONG (27.5-INCH-LONG) COMMON BASILISK WOULD HAVE A 50-CM-LONG (19.5-INCH-LONG) TAIL.

The making of our everyday life is not an isolated activity but involves living with other lives and things. Stones and tables are as much alive as are the trees and the birds. Our everyday life is an entanglement of things. And it is this entanglement that constitutes a place. So how do we make things well? Or how do we make places of well-being? Where things share an inner likeness with other things, a relation of sympathy. Like the one shared between a day-lily and a hummingbird or the hand and a door handle. This ‘shaping each other’ leads us to the necessity of craft and imagination in the making of things and places. While craft is concerned with the structure of things, imagination is a spirited flight into the world of dreams. But when both these apparently opposing actions do intertwine, there emerges a song, a creative entanglement emerging out of a graceful correspondence between the material of engagement, the action of tools and the activity of dreaming. To be able to grasp this correspondence the learner is placed with the requisite tools, in a practical situation, and asked to pay attention to how ‘this’ feels, or how ‘that’ looks or sounds’ to notice those subtleties of texture that are all-important to good judgment and the successful practice of a craft.

Sachin Soni Experiencing a great work of architecture is like reading an excellent piece of literature. It engages the senses through ways in which spatial volumes and form, building scale and light, geometric alignment and organization, materials and textures, structure and details cohere into a meaningful, emotionally charged encounter. It is not surprising that language and architecture have been used as analogies for each other in many ways. Often phrases like ‘language of architecture’ are used for describing expressive and tectonic qualities in the oeuvre of great architects. This studio exploredworks ofselected architects and triedtodeciphertheiruniquearchitecturalvocabulary and grammar that each of them have developed. Students learned to derive distinct attitudes of selected architects towards various aspects of architecture through analysis of their work. These attitudeswereverified intermediatelythrough small design problems and latertested and modifiedwhen employed to design a Marine EcologyField station in Diu, India. In order to develop skills and sensibilities to approach design through the lens of ‘language of architecture’, this studio encouraged students to engage with the great works of architects.

The cube emphasises on Didi’s attitude towards the physical and ephimeral substances. The key idea explored through the cube is that of a staircase essentially being steps and staircase being a space rather than being a mere transition element. Materials are highlighted through textures. These textures are enhanced through the remarkable play of light in Didi’s projects. The idea of timelessness is experienced due to the quality of mud. This is further enhanced by the use of plant which also highlights that Didi’s projects sit on site in accordance to the landscape, views and trees. The cube shows the continuous, attentuated and narrative but also episodic movement allowing one to experience it by moving their hands along the surfaces and feeling the texture of mud.

MASTERS STROKE: MATTERS OF ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE

MAZE: EDUARDO SOUTO DE MOURA FigADHRITA 2 ROY | UG190032

Textured mud wall

Play of

In Eduardo Souto de Moura’s buildings – he treats his individual spaces as enclosures which border a central corridor and are aggregated by the overall rectilinear form of the built mass. In the circulation that he establishes by this arrangement, no movement is allowed between enclosures – each time the user has to go out into the corridor to enter a space. This attitude is articulated in the maze where the maze is split into two parts – one on either side of a central white plane – a datum. One side of this plane holds solid blocks – enclosures which do not allow any movement between the spaces. To play the game, once the ball is dropped through one of the holes in the plate, the maze will have to be flipped to the other side where one can find pathways to navigate the ball inside. The MASTERS STROKE: MATTERS OF ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE clues regarding the correct path in the maze is given by articulating the varying degrees of enclosure that the architect uses in his works.

TROPHY The trophy reflects the architect’s attitude towards making and detailing. He trophy expresses the tectonic expression of efficiency. As the architect’s core principle is to ‘Never remove, always add ’.Also the economical efficiency is expressed through the articulation of the trophy by reusing the waste and left over material by minimizing the intervention and abstracting the principles of detailing to detail out the trophy. The trophy is for the two architects lacaton and Vassal which is interpreted as concrete cubes and light glass respectively and combining the two forms the entire structure. The trophy is the module repeated and interlocked n order to save material and to counter lateral load. Also the trophy is the functional table tray for the cubes as paper weights for the architects.

Sankalpa This studio investigates the relationship between structure and material as a primary basis in the making of architecture. It shall prepare students to develop design ability in which the search for systems of space becomes intrinsic to the search for systems of structure. The studio assumes that structure is abstract and diagrammatic and in this sense, it constitutes immense possibility for diverse and numerous forms. In this light, material is merely temporal and one material can be replaced by another in the same structural system. The realization of form that is perceptible is eventually realized through the organization ofmaterialin space.This organization of materialinspacecreatestwosetsofspaces;onethatis around the organized material and the other that the material itself occupies. This semester predominantly dealt with and detailed out the latter as an outcome of principles of form deriving. The students were able to produce models and prototypes highlighting structural and constructional aspects of their design as well as produce a set of technical drawings for execution.

Smit Vyas The studio explores ways through which outdated buildings can become sites for creative thinking about construction processes. It introduces new programmatic requirements in an old precinct, necessitating actions of repair, replacement or introduction of alternative parts. Through this, new formal, structural & material conditions were tested against the old ones in an attempt to find a wholesome architectural expression. As a result, the play of building elements, systems & technologies was anchored into the work by clearly responding to the given spatial and functional conditions, while at the same time, freeing the author to exercise personal imagination and desire. Undertaking a small renovation project, allowed students to gain knowledge of different agencies involved and explore a much wider range of design development processes. Each student, along with formulating a new schema, also learned staircase details,doors&windowdetails,flooringdrawingsand toilet design. Above all, students learned to see existing buildings from the point of view of structural possibilities & scope for intervention and also developed skills for identifying building language and developing its grammar through the detailing of architectural elements.

The existing block is made of one and a half brick thick wall and RCC frame structure with rough plaster outside and smooth plaster inside

The plinth matches with the existing plinth makes a smooth transition between new and old structures and creates an equal relationship.

The concrete wall starts in such a way that it takes the plinth within and creates the visual idea of emerging from the ground.

The final truncated pyramidal roof continues from the wall and becomes one monolith structure which creates nice light quality inside where light flushes the wall

The studio aims at imparting the basic knowledge of local and global forms with respect to structural actions. Studio dealt with association of space and tectonics by developing the understanding of material, form and structure in such a way that students could use this understanding in their design to integrate the structure and construction along with spatial qualities to achieve tectonic expression. New materials like fibers, new technologies like 3-D printing and advanced methods for computing for parametric are becoming common. At the same time natural materials like bamboo and conventional materials like mud and compressed blocks are also finding their way in application with modern methods. Architects need to equip themselves to exploit the potential of these materials and methods, for which conceptual understanding of structural systems and form is very essential. This studio equipped students to design and detail meaningful forms using fundamentals of structural actions and material properties along with construction technology which is essential as a process for going part to whole.

(This could be a single Mona khakhar Avlokita A 3 landscape/portrait images sent The studio is devised around the application of concepts of sustainability in buildings. It looks at case studies of sustainable buildings in India to study various measures that contribute to the functioning of the building with respect to the climate of the place. The studio focuses on employing site design principles to the project site with respect to the resources and climate of a place. The site to responds to wind, solar radiation/light, water, vegetation and existing built form while the building design emphasizes application of various strategies for – light, ventilation, water, electricity/energy and building material. The students apply various passive strategies leading to comfortable living. The passive measures adopted in the design development of a building are informed/ supported by appropriate tools/software. The project as a whole involved assessment of the use of all the resources – rainwater, wastewater, solid waste, light, electricity/ energy and building material. Overall, the studio contributed to enhance the understanding of the sustainability principles and greatly instilled confidence to build sustainable buildings.

Priyanshi Jain We experience architecture right from our birth. Our encounters are enormous, but the encounters which get etched in our memories are usually the ones that have moved our senses, that is sight, smell, touch, sound and on rare occasions even taste. Be it the dynamic composition, the unconventional use of materials, the color palette received because of juxtaposition of light and shadow, all contribute towards the evolution of sensory experiences. The studio also enabled one to identify a program not only to suit the purpose but rather to make a change and evoke emotion. The studio aimed to address and investigate the constantheightenedexperiencesderivedfromvarious architectural languages, explore its parameters, to form a libraryofdesign tools.These tools became the basisofdesigningcontemplativespaces/installations that acted as insertswithinvarious mundane settings in our cities. The idea was to enrich the process of Observing, Recording and Visualizing, within the proposed architecture whilst learning from the precedents that used senses as means of arousing passive audiences.

Hamid Raj Ahmedabad is 610 years old, famed for its architecture and has been recently declared as a ‘World Heritage City’ by UNESCO. Over the past century, and especially the last five decades the city has witnessed a major decline and massive loss to its priceless heritage. The studio proposes to design in this context which is laden with a rich history. The focus and challenges were to be able to personalize and customize spaces for individual needs and aspirations of a family, by designing a residence at an actual site in the walled city. Before working on the design, understanding and sensitizing ourselves to this contextwithinwhich we propose to build is extremely crucial. In order to acclimatize with this context, a thorough study of the planning and organization of the pols and the pol houses was conducted. To be able to truly appreciate the vernacular designs, one has to also study the use of materials, constructiontechniquesandstructuralsystems.These designs were made for a people of a bygone era and one needs to understand the impact of the dramatic shift in lifestyle of the current day user living in these homes in orderto caterto theirneeds and aspirations

The studio houses the reconstruction of the Louise-Catherine barge and supporting festival facilities on the sea. The fluvial interventions will be imagined as a series of props that sit within or atop a floating dry dock on the Arabian sea, both a temporary boatyard and living museum. This will create a space to safely house the reconstruction of the barge, whilst enabling the remaking of the vessel to be a spectacle for participants, curious observers and the city of Bombay. Between the barge and the Royal Bombay Yacht club building, a series of connecting facilities will be designed that include temporary exhibition spaces, cafe, toilets, offices. After the reconstruction of the barge, these two vessels, the floating dry dock and the Louise Catherine barge, will be used to house the festive arrangements or events within them. The studio is grounded within knowledge of nautical architecture. Connecting to the powerful legacy of Modernist Architecture, in particular the work of Le Corbusier, the studio will stimulate students to form positions concerning how contemporary interventions can preserve, respond to and build on this heritage. In tandem, students will develop knowledge and judgment in water-based architecture, enabling them to synthesize a theoretical approach to the colonial heritage of Bombay with an approach to designing for fluvial conditions.

The studio explores the typology of high-rise buildings as a premise of mainstream housing development for the future. The design approach shall intervene to generate livability in vertical blocks. With growing development coupled with shortage of land, developer driven housing purely delivers isolated apartment towers having stacked floors in every part of the city, excessively consuming our urban experience and spaces. By analyzing the existing, students observe manners in which conventional high-rise blocks have very little to do with different profiles of people living together, apart from their existence in their isolated apartments. The focus is to work towards design solutions that can be part of mainstream high-rise developments to create living spaces that boost physical and mental well-being, and allow integration without sacrificing privacy. It is also to address the need of a vertical community living environment that caters to changing social, economic, technological and environmental dynamics and shifts. Throughout the studio unit, the dimensions of professional practice is implied as a methodology to conduct the individual work while applying the aspects of real world design practice in terms of decision making, collaboration, deliverable & communications.

“The idea that work is bound to be anchored in a corporate office succumbed during the ongoing COVID crises, making us think about integrating the workplace at a neighborhood scale. Unlike mono functional and generic office buildings located in CBD’s, the unit aimed at testing workplace typologies within civic environments, supported by community/civic institutions offering an ecosystem, wherein individuals can tap into networks of collaborations offered within their surroundings. Freelancers are no more isolated, small businesses have the flexibility to expand and shrink as required. The focus was to attract a young workforce within a rich urban environment, with enough to offer even after the traditional working hours. The current knowledgeeconomyonlyfosterssuchcollaborations bridging services, interdisciplinary research and the creative clusters. The unit speculated on the cross overs among such entities as potential drivers for change within cities. For the Spring-22 semester, the site had been identified in the western Suburb of Juhu, located in Mumbai.

Percy Pithawala The latter half of the 20th century has been extremely critical to the theoretical discourse and practice in architecture. There have been a selection of architects during the phase from the 1960’s to the 2000’s who were rigorously exploring interconnections and translations from varied parallel discourses such as art, philosophy and culture, into architecture and space making. At the turn of the 1960’s there was great critical rigor observed in the theoretical works of architects like Robert Venturi, Michael Graves and Charles Jencks bringing forth the post-modern movement and subsequently, minimalism, deconstruction and the new modern. In 1988, Philip Johnson curated an exhibition on deconstructivist architecture at the Museum of ModernArt in NewYork,wherein he included several architects who were exploring and experimenting with a diverse range of thought processes inspired from varied influences from other related fields of design. This studio explores radical departures in design thinking through lateralinter-relationships between variousdesignfieldsandtheirinfluences.Emphasisof the studiowas to provide studentswith the necessary freedom to be able to engage in shared learning and furtherevolvenovelstrategiestoconstruct,rationalize and implement their individual thought within a process based approach.

The prevalent discourse on architecture positions the architectural project as a singular act, made separate from the continuity and collective condition of the environment which we are (still) in obligation to share. The studio challenges this tendency to iconize the architectural project within our disciplinary discourse by a persistent curiosity to understand it as a part of the built environment, assessing its viability and limitations through a systematic inquiry into the conditions and consequences of its design. This semester, through the discovery of relevant questions, the studio investigated a favored modern architecturalicon, familiarto us through its reputation and the established narratives of its successes. Students will identify problems inherent in the existing design by way of vital relationships it fails to consider. Subtle, yet profound intervention/s that resolve the problems identified followed, shifting the emphasisfromdesignsolutionsderivedprimarilyfrom the expression of form to that of solving problems of relevance, we rekindled the potential of program, the meaning of use and continuity of the built environmentasanunderstandingofwhatconstitutes critical architecture in service of responsibility over mere reputation.

Snehal Shah After completing the studio, the student will be able to achieve the following; The studio is going to concentrate most essentially and primarily to create an architectural language and work on a strong premise to make subtle and yet a bold statement for the project brief. In order to achieve this basic goal, the studio will take help of several exercises, to first try and understand what are the requirements of this space and how to achieve the same. To make supportive group readings on the subject, be it of any reference. This is crucial as the references of these readings will give clues to go further in the project. The third will be to have site visits of case studies and the chosen site to explore its context, consider climate (mainly sun movement for natural light) and then the study and exploitation of appropriate material. Several iterations and design development of the concept would give challenges to the imagination and reality with which the student would be working on. To create a synergy and synthesis with the aspects of architecture, be it spatial or physical, be it tangible or intangible aspects and be it positive or negative. The final design would be able to display the inherent aspects of architecture and try to achieve its goal.

‘Monument, Memory and Ruins Their place in the imagination and architecture of today’

What do monuments do? Do they capture the very essence of architecture, or do they fail to qualify as architecture? How do we look at the memory and history associated with these structures? What is the value of each? What is architecture’s relationship to the past: must it “redeem” the past by fulfilling the past’s thwarted vision or should architecture help society forget? Could these be seen as those crucial points where there is a collapse of time and a possibility of renewal? Ahmedabad is a city with several monuments and ruins - some standing out as objects in the fabric of the citywhile others are hiddenwithin the fabric to be discovered. The studio attempted to address the above questions in the context of two sites in Ahmedabad: a) Six students studying the Bai Hari Vav and the mosque complex at Asarwa b) Five students studying the Baba Lavlavi mosque at Behrampura. Each student developed their own intervention of an urban institution by coming up with a program and narrative rooted in context, experiences and analysis of the given sites. Thus, as a larger perspective, the studio tried to bring these monuments and ruins into the imagination of the student by understanding aspects of place, program and people from an architectural perspective.

Amit Joseph Kurien Students Vs the Building! In “A burglar’s guide to the city”, Geoff Manaugh addresses burglars as ‘idiot masters of the built environment,drunkJediofarchitecturalspaceandan urban trickster of sorts.’ By employing the distinct ‘urban trickster’s’ tool of disruptive imagination within the architectural academic framework, students will attempt to Decode, Counter-Design and De-stabilize the ‘Theater of Trade’.Such an academic methodology explores focused ‘site –vulnerability’ studies, alternative narratives and creative diagramming of the Heists. The Heist is an ‘Act’ of real-time Action–Time–Space Counter design to the existing ‘Normalcy’ of the Theatre. Though the basic genres of our study range from topics like ‘Stability’ and ‘Chaos’, ‘Security’ and ‘Vulnerability’, ‘Protocol’ and ‘Practice’, students were expected to derive the loot narrative based on the vulnerabilities identified. Students engage progressivelyin ascending scale of casing targets (the Neighborhood target, the Library and the Theater of Trade) to understand varying challenges and in situ sharpen the relevant skills. The final outcome of the studio – the Heist room , would be a vulnerability map, a Heist map , a Heist modeland sequentialdepiction ofActs and Sub-Acts crucial to challenge/highlight the key focus of the study.

Gaurang Shah This course was designed to refine and sharpen the students’ perceptual and aesthetic sensibility. It also enables the students to understand and apply some basic principles of form generation and help them to visually and verbally articulate their form ideas. Some of the most important topics that were touched upon in this course (studio) are - form integrations, form transitions, geometric relations and manipulations. As an approach, drawing and model making were used extensively. This was also meant to enhance the creativity of the students in using the visualization media In terms of visual perception; every form has a surface or surfaces, i.e., the outermost part ofthe form directlyin contactwith the space surrounding it. Everyform is perceived byits surface(excludingtransparentandtranslucentforms where the inner content of the form is also seen). In other words, this is the stage when one begins to understandtheform.Otheraspectsthenfollowindue course of one’s experience with the form.

The studio revolves around a learning design process using wood as a material of context. Wood evolved as a material through craft into the world industrial design (especially in mass manufacturing of furniture). Through the design movements across the world, it was the arts and craft that majorly tested the materiality of wood and its attributes. These attributes were later used according to how advantageous it proved for the furniture being produced. Design without context is just another artform. Therefore the studio brings context on two levels adhering not only to the site but also through the type of furniture to be designed. GARVI GURJARI is a handicraftandhandloominitiativeofthegovernment of Gujarat to support its art & craft along with their craftsmen & artisans. The requirement of the studio was to develop a shelving unit or set of furniture for Garvi Gurjari. The shelving unit as a general rule should be able to store and display its products. The explorations in techniques used to produce the furniture hence traversing through the materiality of wood is the heart of this studio. Therefore craft & industrial techniques have been taken into consideration. Shelving unit is in itself a small scale structure. With the help of designing this structure, one can scout howwood responds tovarious forces it experiencessuchascompression,tension,sheerforce, load bearing capacity and so on.

Through this studio we have explored the various ways in which stories are told visually, through a range of media, their place in modern, visual communication and of course, address how we can weave narratives into our work across disciplines. We wanted to be able to offer multiple perspectives on this old, but very alive tradition, so through the length of this studio we’ve looked at the relationship between type and image and narrative-building/storytelling. We have looked at storytelling through the lens of art, the performing arts, illustration and graphic novels, film, crafts and textiles and imbibed what they offer in how they tell stories. We also started looking at the idea of ‘self’ and by the end of this course, moved slowly to the idea of ‘community’, as we took into consideration ideas of habitat and space wherever relevant. The final outcome had a number of exciting possibilities - a wellresearched, well-crafted story centered around a community (looking at communities in the non-traditional sense; those bound by a shared experience). The story was of course told visually, unrestricted by media and covered the whole gamut - from illustrated posters and children’s books to installations and games.

The designs of products to meet the demands of built spaces are challenging. The products will have to meet the demands of lifestyle and technology changes. The studio introduced the design process to find solutions in different domains of work, home and other spaces. The modules in the studio enhanced the learning of materials (Non - metals), manufacturing processes and human factors. The design process was introduced and practiced as students applied learned fundamental principles to multiple three dimensional forms, structures, and products. Students used extensive physical / digital model making and presentation software in the initial stages (2D and 3D). Students addressed the historical context of their designs as they practice critical thinking, research, problem solving, and aesthetic refinement. Projects required sketches, models, written reports and verbal presentations of design concepts. Students were required to present their individual creative process through the exploration and manipulation of materials and methods to express a visual response to a theme or content. Digital media examples and detailed study of products from the environment exposed the students to a variety of materials and methods as means to stimulate curiosity, exploration, invention and solution finding and developing an aesthetic eye and personal vision.

Through exposure to varied creative fields like theatre, films, production design, animation, graphic design and set design through discussion and interactive sessions (hybrid) with experts from across the globe, and decoding of various genres of films, the students were exposed to the world of scenic design. The core idea of this studio is to create a fictional world of imaginary spaces through the amalgamation of Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) with the Indian Classical Narratives. The representation was done through the lens of the selected fictional film to create an imaginary world through narrative style drawings and scenes. The output resulted in elaborate storyboards, illustrations and conceptual art. In the emerging “new Normal” collaboration is the key and people from various fields can come together and work and hence the emergence of multifaceted work culture is bound to arise. This studio addresses this emergence and hence takes an interdisciplinary approach and explores the amalgamation of various creative fields like production design, interior design, films, graphics and animation. The MCU will become a shell for the content to be hosted. And the content would be the Indian Epic Narrative – Mahabharata.

Naandi Parikh Shopping is changing radically in response to impacts of ambient Internet access technologies. If shoppers’ take the trouble to visit shops rather than clicking on-line, they expect stimulating experiences beyond wall-to-wall product displays. They demand new engagements between suppliers and customers. Cutting edge retail design is about providing these new experiences. The Beyond Detail Studio explores the issue of creating emotionally immersive retail space at every stage in the process and at every scale from the overall design to the smallest detail. Particular focus was given to crafting the immaculate details essential to delivering the quality of retail experience now required. The studio work conducted in three stages • Research: Following the selection and study of an existing luxury brand students will develop their own unique brand. • Design: The values and characteristics of this new brand was then translated into a concept design of a 50 m2 retail space. • Detail: Finally, the design will be developed in detail. Plans, sections and elevations of all parts of the design were prepared in the form of technical construction drawings taking into consideration the use of technologies, materials, junctions and finishes. Students experienced design beyond detail.

In this studio, students re-imagined libraries where powerful sensory tools such as painting, storytelling, dance, music, drama, movies etc. replaced books as the primary mode of information access. The resulting format was of a Community Library that catalogues & houses works of visual or performing arts while also hosting workshops and offering a venue for public gathering. To develop spaces for the same, the studio investigated the possibility of designing from the inside out. Students first studied libraries as they exist today, focusing on systems for sorting, cataloguing & organizing. They then chose the city to locate their library in and the art form to be engaged with an understanding of the latter leading to the concept and choice of material to be explored. Abstract models were used to explore ways in which a conceptual idea could manifest in terms of volumes, light and spatial interconnections. To establish a design language, a single space was first developed focusing on how functional & spatial requirements impact the resultant shell around an activity. While all spaces were individually developed based on this language, organizing principles were applied to establish connections between them and ‘grow’ the library into a larger built form.

Shikha Parmar The focus of this unit was to design a shelter for a group of travel enthusiasts, embedded into the chosen urban treasure house of memory and sensation. One had to rethink the idea of ‘shelter’ by analyzing the existing local home and later reinterpreting and diversifying interior experiences of activities performed by a traveler during their stay. The design must provide both pragmatic and importantly a sensorial experience distilling the characteristics of the context for an appropriate spatial narrative and user group. Contextual elements and need of user, informed the use of spatial elements and configuration of spaces explored through models. As part of the pedagogic method, a tool box was derived consisting of spatial principles, materials and systems. The studio attempted to conceptualize and evolve grammar of interior space manifested through the nature of materials while integrating order of activities. Major milestones of this process were conceptualization, planning - organization and spatial integrity. The students were encouraged to vividly communicate the central idea of the proposal through relevant presentation techniques that add profound inspiration to traveler’s explorations during their stay.

Subin Jameel A boundary does not define the interior; it is the order, array and number of objects which reside within a space that truly define the character of the interior. The studio aimed to develop an inside-out approach towards spatial design by questioning the ‘part to whole’ relationships between objects, structure, envelope, and site. The studio aimed to disrupt our conventional relationship with architectural compositions and rethink the correlations between familiar objects, materials and its assemblies. How can this renewed understanding ofobjects give rise to unconventional kinships and hybridities in the form and performance ofourspaces?Thestudioexploredspeculativedesign proceduresbyunderstandingthepotentialembedded in digitaland analog mediums. Cycles of making and thinking with these mediums played an important role in the development of individual projects. The studentsalsoresearchedthehistoryoftheworkspace and its evolution towards the contemporary place of work. This manifested into the proposal for a place of work and the audience it engenders, through the adaptive reuse of a warehouse in Ahmedabad. The studio helped students develop a critical attitude towards questions surrounding interiority and effectively communicate their design ideas.

Amal Shah The studio looks at negotiating a real site and its constraints for a workplace design. The studio addresses the interior design process related to how much space and what kind of space is needed for a work environment. In addition, it will address points related to the choice and planning of furniture systems, material application, details of enclosures and other interior design elements, FF&E selection, etc. Finally, the studio will look at office amenities such as entrances and reception areas, meeting rooms, break rooms, vending areas, lavatories, and particular areas such as storage and communication systems. The move to openplan working is a common feature of most contemporary offices, although plenty of spaces are provided for meetings and conversations to be held in private. This move-in terms of spatial planning accompany a change in the perceived hierarchy of employers. The notions related to offices characterized by a certain formality are being challenged, based on the idea that a person’s knowledge, capability, and attitude is essential rather than where or how they sit. In planning terms, there seems to be a small number of office typologies emerging. The next generation of workers is also more digitally savvy than ever before. Interior Designers need to meet up with such challenges related to planning of new types of collaborative community based work environments.

5 th Year Ananda Krishnan Moksha Shah Siddharth Sharma Odedra Vaishali Bhima

Aparajati Basu The Cross Programming is an unplanned and organic condition found in cities, often as a result of hyper-density and layering of the built environment over time. The studio attempted to identify and initiate the design process through the lens of cross programming, so that it becomes a critique to existing typologies and heightens the experiential and ephemeral qualities of space. Can the idea of cross-programming expand to include design decisions beyond its function? Can we look at interior space-making as a combination of disparate entities or systems in the making of interior elements? Exploration of duality or plurality in its typologies through material, structure, form and colors, textures and finishes learn to respond to the situation to make a proposition. Program - The Museum + ? The program of the museum was developed by students along with another additional program in relation to physical site context. Buildings which were once defined by eras, have become obsolete as they are no longer in use, due to social, cultural and temporal changes. This studio was an attempt to re imagine, re-purpose, reappropriate these spaces to give it a new lease of life. Students selected their sites in the historical, industrial or modern categories.

5 th Year Devika Sharma Dhruvi Shah Khevana Mitesh Shah Manav Patel Nidhi Radadia Shristy Baid

Kireet Patel The studio investigated the definitions, notions, and theories of luxury and its influence on the design process. This will enable the skill of designing an interior space as a venue of Luxury with focus on the role of luxury to bind the visual, spatial, and structural aspects of the design. The studio will develop techniques, methods, and mediums of luxuries that interior design needs. These tools were generative and transferable with the new-age demands of ‘Luxure’. The studio will focus on luxuriating the interior situation and interior design content. New age vocabulary can be proposed as the concept for the strategic articulatory utilization of luxury and its differentiation that emerges from the expressional, tectonic, and spatial articulations. Module 1 focused on the development of a process to evolve luxury as an approach for the new-age design process for interior spaces through research, inference, and representation. Module 2 was immediate application and evaluation of developed approaches for Luxury. It simultaneously modulates and scales spatial relationships between selected programs and typology of built systems. This will be done through a design exercise. Module 3 derived a complex spatial system that will transformed the selected site into ‘A VENUE FOR LUXURY’.

Hospitality Design informed by the local context of Architecture, exterior or interior, can be considered to be a result of an appropriate response to a physical context which can be summarized as “Form Follows Context”. A deeper understanding would include “culture”. The studio explored the interface between interior architecture and its “context” in hospitality design. If the design of a hotel could showcase the context, it would be an enriching experience for the visitor, while boosting the local economy and preserving the local culture. The understanding of “critical regionalism” is necessary since it will define the manner in which localarchitecture, interiorand culturewillbe studied and reinterpreted. Hospitalitydesign that references the local context has always existed but a new genre was created when architects like Geoffrey Bawa and KerryHilldesigned hotels in Sri Lanka and South East Asia. The endeavour of this studio was to ask how architecture can help make a visit memorable? Forthe finaloutcome, studentswere asked to design the interior of a tourism tea bungalow and to present their design in the form of 2D drawings and 3D renders.

As cities become denser, resources deplete, economies recalibrate and unprecedented events disrupt the normal, traditional structures of working and collaborating are undergoing alteration. The global pandemic has made us realize and re-question the modes of working and collaborating. In the immediate present, the workspace dynamics are altering globally to become decentralized and grow inward, in turn, reconfiguring the interiors for the diverse, the shared and for active exchange.

Bansari Patel Himisha Vyas Ishika Mehta Kaushik Myatra Shivani Pandya Sakshi Sharma Ayushi Panchal

Errol Reubens Jr

In this studio, we looked at the deviants to the normal that will cause certain connections as possible solutions to the new ways of working or “coworking”. Key concepts of ‘community’, ‘well-ness’ and ‘collaboration’ would become the launching points to understand and define the new workspace interiority. Creating interiors that have a design language derived out of qualitative and metaphorical allusion to aspects of “work space” were used as a primary design tool. The studio would lead the students to take a position regarding future methods of “co-working” that can affect productivity and enhance the experience in such environments. The final outcome demonstrated design strategies and qualitative aspects to embody the narrative of new workspace interiority.

5 th Year Anusha Bishnoi Vishnu Dhanikonda Vanshika Tyagi

Ruchi Mehta With the rise of e-commerce and omnichannel retailing and ubiquity of “brands” in the last few decades, the relevance as well as design approaches for “retailing” and “brand building” have evolved significantly. These novel challenges are demanding new approaches to retail store design. These are the challenges that tomorrow’s interior designers will be facing in their professional careers. To address this evolving nature of retail store design, this studio focused on design of a variety of retail formats through the lens of brand building. The students selected their own design problems/ brand that is either expanding its product/service portfolio; is a new and growing brand; is a brand that needs a flagship store oran experience centerto deal with its omni-channelpresence; oris an old brand that requires revamping of its image. The students’ projects commenced with an interpretationofthebrand’soverallstrategy,selection of the site and development of the program for an appropriate retail format. They then produced spatial design solutions for creating brand-centric customerexperiencesandpresentedthedesignwith a complete set of schematic drawings, models and views and graphics to communicate the strategies.

Workspaces have existed for millennia but it is only post the industrial revolution that they truly came into their own. As more and more of the workspaces move from the manufacturing sector to the services sector, offices have become larger and now walk the fine line between public and private spaces. Today, the office environments are not organized by hierarchy, but focus on building the community. With this shift in mindset, office spaces try to achieve a balance of both open and closed environments that can accommodate various focused and collaborative needs. Thus, the design and functionality of these spaces respond very similar to semi-public spaces. The studio aims to develop a betterunderstanding of how large spaces (4,000 sq. meter approx.) are approached in terms of design and planning. It addresses the challenges of commercial buildings and the importance of NBC norms while designing such large workspaces. In this process, the students also get a chance to understand how the counts and ratios of different areas (like workstations, meeting rooms, breakout, collaboration spaces, washrooms) are calculated to make the best use of every inch. Second segment of the course focuses on the detailed understanding of services (like fire sprinklers, HVAC and electrical) in large workspaces. The final segment aims to expose the students to experience their spaces in detail through Virtual Reality (VR) sets, to finetune and present their designs.

Understanding the challanges and guidelines while planning large spaces.

Calculation numbers and ratios of different spaces according to NBC Guidelines.

While planning large office spaces there are multiple factors one has to count in parallel to the thoughts of design. For example, the passages for fire escapes, ratios of different areas (like washrooms, breakouts) or positioning of services (like UPS and Battery room, IT room) that are dominated by NBC norms or building structure and have to be considered according to the guidelines.

UPS Room

Battery Room

IT Room

1 person requires 0.5 KVA Therefore, 500 people = 250 KVA

1 UPs requires 34 + 4(backup batteries)

1 person requires 1 node

1 UPS unit = 60 kva

1 Battery specification : 12 AH 12V ; 20kg weight Total batteries required for 5 UPS = 190 battery

Total Units required = 5 (n + 1 Factor required in UPS room) 1 UPS weighs 570 kg Total weight of 5 UPS unit 2850 kg

Rack size = 800 x 450 x1800 mm 1 rack accomodates 38 batteries Total racks required = 5

Therefore, minimum area required for UPS is 2850/450 =6.3 m.sq.

Therefore, minimum area required for battery is 3800/450 = 8.5 m. sq

Total node required 500 (including meeting area) Taking 42U racks for server: 42U Server Rack size : 600 x 800 x 2000mm 42U server Rack accomodates 42 switches To accomodate 500 nodes we require 2 server racks

Sunita Dalvi With the concept of materiality, the sense of interiority or exteriority can give meaningful experiences to the interior spaces, especially when set in the process based design thinking. To explore how appropriate are materials to the construction of interior space, here, the proposed design is taken as temporary constructions in space, i.e. design of a performance space for actors and audience - ‘Theatre Stage Design’fora historicalplay‘Tughlaq’ by Girish Karnad, assumed to be stationed in the setting of Sarkhej Roza at Ahmedabad and constructed as an event. The play is a historical play based on two central ideas of existentialism and symbolism. The site context offers a challenge for excitingthematicexpressionstoconnectinteriorityof the enclosure to its exteriority, ofthe site and the play. The expected studio outcome demands characterization ofperformance space foractors and audience using design elements of Interior Space Design- such as materials, sound, lighting, acoustics, colour,costumes,drapery,typographywhileexploring programmatically the historical imagination of the event. Because it’s a performance space and constructed temporarily, the process and system of constructioninassemblyanddis-assemblyisrequired to be considered.

“The course introduced concepts of `housing for- mass’ across space and time. The evolution of housing settlements through linking and stacking; their processes, determinants/ generations, and resulting patterns were explored in their respective contexts exploring the balance between order and complexity.

Anoushka Mukherjee Charvi Sawai Namoshi Basu Priya Thottappally Riva Shah Samriddhi Dugar Shruti Jog Simran Khatter Vidhi Shah

The idea was to create an adaptive habitat for migrant communities associated with the very dynamic and socially interactive live-work environment. Here, “adaptability” has been visualized and represented as a real space, accommodative of people from diverse cultures and traditions over time. The spaces, thus created have their own characteristics; with occupants having opportunities to alter these spaces in certain extended patterns. Eventually, this fluctuating habitat, over time, must be able to maintain a balance between generated orders and identified contextual complexities. The students learned to analyze and identify issues with the linking and stacking of modular housing units. This helped them in planning and organizing various ensembles in response to the open spaces and adjacent urban context. The students were also able to explore housing clusters & ensembles by balancing the underlying orders and complexities.”

Demographic Research Journal’s issue, Living Alone: One-person household in Asia (2015), addresses one-person households as the fastest growing living situation in the world, especially in Asia. The current social welfare system and institutions not only fall short of supporting one-person household, but the distribution and utilization of resources are known to be limited to and facilitated for ideal family household. Within the course of this studio, we are rethinking housing and dwelling outside of ideal family household and questioning spatiality and materiality association with state of well-being, especially single person dwelling as primary situation. During COVID -19 global pandemic and subsequent lock-down, we have experienced being alone at our own home/room while connected with friends and families virtually through Zoom or any other. This recent experience as a starting point, participants documented her/his own space and objects to analyze and articulate relationships with her/himself. Further within the studio, we addressed how does single person dwelling confirm its normality and well-being? Sitting at the threshold of communal and private, or simultaneously confining and liberating, the single person dwelling is proposed as both: for isolation and for production, shift between these two states of being.

A growing body of academic literature illuminates the exclusion of women from the public realm which further translates into their absence from public debate, policy and action. In Indian cities where vehicular ownership usually lies with men, streets are imagined around automobiles thus invariably assuming the ‘universal citizen’ client to be male, car driving, leisurely, able bodied and wealthy. It thus becomes apparent that the street as a public space belongs more to a man than a woman. This studio focuses on mapping and analysing the socio-spatial practices of gendered bodies in order to establish the unique challenges they face- of access, leisure and safety in the city. The students systematically translated the outcome of this analysis into a clearly articulated design strategy and detailed out design drawings in order to propose a solution that enables equal access to the city.

Vrushti Mawani Through this studio we mapped and analysed urban vulnerability particularly considering impacts of the COVID outbreak. COVID-19 has suddenly, unforeseeably, and disproportionately impacted populations already vulnerable as a result of occupation, class, migration status, religion, gender, and other factors, who rely on urban public spaces for their basic needs. Social and economic changes along with mandates on social distancing have meant exclusion of vulnerable groups from using public space for their basic needs. These instances raise new challenges for urban designers and planners. How might we imagine inclusive public spaces in post-COVID Indian cities? This studio is premised in the belief that inclusive public spaces in a post-covid context might be possible if : (a) Urban design takes into account the many ways in which vulnerable groups depend on public spaces for their basic needs, and (b) Design processes have a sufficiently grounded understanding of the myriad ways in which public space is used, governed, and experienced.

ANALYSIS

Three Case study:

“Each gram of human excreta contains 10 million viruses, one million bacteria, 1,000 parasite cysts and 100 parasite eggs. As many recent reports suggest, this unacceptable lack of sanitation has been responsible for high malnutrition in India” - UNICEF report -2011 “Half of India’s population defecates in the open and over 30 percent urban slums across India have no toilets or drainage facility.” - NSSO (National Sample Surey Organisation) “In urban Gujrat 8.74% of 5,416,315 households defecte in open the absence of any usable or fanctional toilets. This suggests that roughly 22.48 lakh of the state’s urban population do not have access to either private or public toilets.” - Indiaspend on swachh bharat urban toilet plan

The plinth of the public tolet is provided with the shade therefore many pavement dwellers rest there

The pavement dwellers uses the wall of the public toilet to keep their belongings and they also occupy the plinth

The plinth of the public toilet is use by Paratha vendor to keep tables and chairs for the customers

“As transit has become an integral part of our daily life, Transit places have become integral parts of our cities as they are Public spaces that facilitate the use of Public Transport. Transit Places connect people in a region and a community to the outside world. They allow people to Transit across different modes of Transport. They allow for a greater footfall and gathering of People which acts as a catalyst for the growth of the local economy. Transit places where multiple modes of transport are connected allow for efficient use of land and other resources in turn providing better connectivity and improved quality of service for the Passengers. Having understood the importance of Transit Places, the studio aimed to design an Intermodal transit Center for Himmatnagar . The Intermodal Transit Center shall connect the entire regional transit system of the western railway and State bus service to the surrounding community of the city. The studio aimed to design and develop userfriendly elements for the Transit system. The studio also focused on making the Transit Place a public place which is well integrated and accessible with the adjacent land uses and developments.

Kruti Shah Departing from the increasing necessity to address issues of urban marginality, structural violence, community disfranchisement, and now the global pandemic, we invited students to explore the possibilities that urban designers -and researchers- possess to generate positive changes in contexts of scarcity. The studio departed from the COVID 19 pandemic as a stage for experimentation, surfacing the idea of infrastructure not necessarily as a more-than-human (one-time) solution, but a transitional set of strategies that would allow for the re-imagination of Indian urbanity. Frugal tactics of space, manifested through small-scaled urban devices that can plug into existing infrastructural systems: transportable and dismountable objects, capable of accommodating diverse productive activities. We are termed ‘Light Infrastructures’. The structure of the studio fluctuated between lectures and discussions on the theories of infrastructure and design activism, to practical developments of infrastructures. A designresearch inquest, materialized in the form of implementation manuals (containing working drawings, operational models, on-ground strategies, market research, step-by-step construction processes, and its impact on the urban context).

The studio investigates extreme climatic, topographical, social and economic challenges in the year 2071. These cities of the future demand advanced design solutions for the distribution and variation in flows of energy, material and population that can address the challenges of abundance or scarcity of various kinds. Increasing water level, frequent heat waves, flash floods, lack of agricultural land and potable water are some of the many issues that demand design strategies inclusive of the programmatic challenges as well as of the living population and their activities. We will follow the process of form generation in nature (morphogenesis) - using Darwin’s theory of evolution and natural selection. This helps simplify the complexity of urban systems. The microclimatic, typological and social organizations of urban tissues are studied, and analysed for interactions across the hierarchical levels analogous to cell, tissue, and organ to develop a generative set of rules. An evolutionary algorithm is computationally scripted to generate multiple iterations to optimize design using concrete data analysis and desired performances. Design complexity emerges through a simple parameter - performance relationship; as a response to the multiple opposing fitness criteria of the environment. The design methodology emphasizes bottom-up, logic-driven and parametrically defined design solutions.

”Indian cities are the most social, environmental & economic complex systems in the world, which have also realized issues like lack of good quality public realm & inclusive pedestrian infrastructure, insufficient green cover, unaffordable land market and an over regulatory development framework. These issues are a result of an archaic idea of city planning & design with multiple city stakeholders and their interactions. The competing views of various stakeholders - from private to public, from govt to citizens - towards city design, which materialize in the form of national/State level policies, city-level development plans & building regulations, all of which culminate in tangible changes to shape cities. This course aims to understand the competing process of push & pull of city-making from macro to micro scale. The students explored this through various analytical techniques & design processes across 3 modules at the city & area level.

Form inspires architects and engineers to accomplish elegance in structures. Creating an astonishing structure demands an impressive expression with structural efficiency. In context of design, structure is the underlying framework and form is the visible outcome of the creative process. This studio provides a unique blend of form and structure in design to explore the spatial potential of steel space frames. Students cultivate a critical understanding of unifying spatial ambitions with structural solutions to achieve architectural potentials entrenched in a well-performing structure. The meandering walk travels through a variation of spatial forms and configurations, showcasing the architectural opportunities of the structural morphology. The basis of structural design – structural system and load transfer mechanism with load estimation, analysis and optimization are accomplished through an iterative process of refining the structure in several steps to integrate architectural intentions with the structural solutions. The design skills were translated into drawings including prototypes of form and joinery with documentation report.

Foundation is a critical part of any civil structure and plays a vital role in the overall safety of a structure. Foundation rests on soil, hence soil plays a crucial role in the foundation design of a structure. Soil is a natural material; a varied type of soil that is present below the earth’s surface. A good foundation design aims for a safe and economical foundation. To achieve this aim, information regarding underground soil strata is essential. The behavior of soil is analyzed based on properties. These properties can be obtained with the help of site investigation along with field tests and laboratory tests. Students were exposed to on-site soil exploration activities during the studio. They went on-site to collect the soil samples from the soil borehole. Several laboratory soil tests were conducted to characterize different soil parameters and predict soil behavior. Students undertook required calculations to design different types of foundations (Shallow and deep) as per the structure’s requirement. They also sought to improve the qualities of problematic soil by using admixtures and conducting various tests on it. They also made working models demonstrating the solutions for different problems associated with the soil. The studio allowed students to make informed decisions about the structure’s foundation.

Anand Viswanathan Deployment is a basic attribute of living organisms. Inert mechanisms and objects become live and moving. The bird, and the beetle, protects its wings by folding them away and; while the dragonfly, which can’t fold its wings, has to fly and roost in open spaces. The moth deploys its camouflaging forewings and flashes bright warnings. And it feeds through a tube that it keeps coiled away beneath its head. Cunning systems of levers and joints open and close roofs and mouths of fish. The elastic-powered pipe-fish can suck in its prey in milliseconds. The unfolding poppy petal conceals so much. Where do the creases go? What tricks is nature showing us that we have yet to see? What can we pick up from these fascinating nature-geometries to solve human problems? This studio is the start of a fascinating and mysterious trail from folding paper to unfolding structures, an enticing quest to decipher a classification system and to present a wide variety of deployable principles with potential application in architectural structure and design. And to develop and illustrate clearly the two typologies – the Origami and Scissor mechanism. Technically speaking deployable structures can expand and contract due to their geometrical arrangement and mechanical joineries. Unlike static structures, they can fold, reduce in size and fit into a limited space when not in use; when required, these structures can be deployed to serve its intended purpose.

The studio focused on imparting an understanding of vernacular construction systems of three different regions in India using locally available materials. Students designed a small workspace for craftspersons making critical improvisations in the existing vernacular construction systems to make it suitable for modern requirements. Vernacular construction systems are inherently cross-disciplinary, as its practitioners are trained to think about the process of making as an overall derivative of material properties, spatial utility, idiosyncrasies as well as climate, all at the same time. This stands in contrast with a compartmentalized approach, often evident in contemporary approaches in practice and pedagogy. Thus, looking towards the vernacular methods of construction can create a fecund ground to achieve the above-mentioned understanding. Students looked at the works of some master builders who have successfully blurred the boundaries between architecture and engineering such as Geoffery Bawa in Sri Lanka, Hassan Fathy in Egypt, Didi Contractor, and Chitra Vishwanath in India.

India is the second fastest growing economy in the world and within India, the construction industry is the second largest after agriculture. Real estate development is one of the most energy and resource intensive sectors in India. Real estate sector represents a large percentage of overall energy consumption, and contributes 40% of the carbon emissions driving climate change. Yet buildings also offer opportunities for substantial, economical energy efficiency gains. From retrofit projects to new construction, buildings require a context-specific design process that integrates efficiency strategies and technologies. In this course, students were introduced to basic technologies and analytical techniques for designing data driven resource-efficient buildings. The primary focus of this course was upon studying the thermal and luminous behavior of buildings and enhanced performance. The studio aimed to examine the basic scientific principles underlying these phenomena, and use computer-aided design software and climate data to explore the role light, ventilation and energy can play in shaping architecture. The students were exposed to concepts of passive architecture, embodied energy and carbon, minimizing energy and water consumption by optimal design.

• Base case, best orientation, opening optimization and natural ventilation are temperatures achived from passive techniques. AC without Insulation and with Insulation are temperatures achived from active techniques. • For all the interventions, in all the spaces the temperatures recorded at 3 times move parallel to each other. The biggest decrease in the temperature is noticed when the insulation is added to the wall section. Apart from insulation, the orientation has a bit negative impact on some of the spaces. The 4pm line and 8pm line almost run together, due to the effect of thermal lag due to the envelope. While the 8am line moves seperate due to effect of natural ventilation and lower outdoor temperature during the morning hours.

Comfort

Most of the spaces are able to achieve the thermal comfort temperatures when insulation is applied on the walls and air conditioners are used. This is not the case when there is no insulation on the walls. As we progress through daytime there is an increase in temperature and this trend is more pronounced in unconditioned spaces. It is however important to note that in some graphs we can see an upward trend in the temperature despite the absence of the source of heat, which can be due to the insulation not allowing the heat to move outdoors, and hence the walls emit heat indoors which is highly undesirable. It is therefore important to note that overuse of insulation is not advisable and using convection to push out heat in the evening is key to passively moving towards thermal comfort.

Through multiple intervention ideas, iterations to test and optimise interventions, an attempt was made to move towards thermal comfort and energy efficiency. As per the simulations in IES despite the optimizing of opening sizes, shading elements and wall sections, thermal comfort could not be achieved. For daylight, all the studied spaces achieved comfort daylight levels. After all the interventions, the building was able to save 508 kWh of electricity i.e. about 12.45% reduction in annual electricity consumption. I believe that the building can become more efficient through applyment of softscape to reduce radiation on walls, improved shading on the roof and use of water in evaporative cooling applications.

The course aims to provide a foundational understanding of essential services like electrical, plumbing, fire protection, and HVAC. It has taught students to incorporate these services in any built space seamlessly to enhance comfort, efficiency, and safety. The course teaches design principles, load calculations, capacity determination, standard engineering practices, the concept of sizes, space requirements, layouts, etc. which help visualize the building/facility as a whole. The course has covered actual project illustrations from residential, institutional, hospitality, healthcare & industrial sectors. Students also had the unique opportunity to learn state-of-the-art software viz. Building Information Modelling (BIM). Preparing their project on BIM has added greater clarity and accuracy. At the end of the course, students should be able to foresee how services can be incorporated into a given project and their implications in terms of form, function, aesthetics, and space.

Cantilevers are a fascination for designers, whether architectural or structural. Ever since the invention of steel and concrete, engineers and architects have designed masterpieces with cantilevers. To achieve a proper balance between design and function, it is important that architects and structural engineers collaborate with each other. Cantilevers also work at the mass level where they symbolize an expression of freedom and boldness. Some of the most notable architects and engineers to use the cantilevers as an expression were Frank Lloyd Wright, Peter Rice, Norman Foster, Mahendra Raj, among many more Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Waters and Robie house changed the perception of housing and created a new style. The mushroom columns at the Johnson Wax museum are a testimony to the fact that Frank Lloyd Wright believed in expressing every material to its fullest. The objective of the course was to inquire and explore the cantilevered structures by introducing, studying, examining and analyzing different materials and their respective properties. Through examples, study materials and exercises, students responded, engaged with and developed the understanding of the cantilever structural form as consisting of stability, serviceability and strength.
