The Bombay Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was founded in December 1874 and is over 144 years in existence. Sir Dinshaw Petit decided to make the provision of a veterinary hospital his own special care. The foundation of The Mumbai Veterinary College, Mumbai, in 1886 marked the establishment of the veterinary profession in this country. The aim of the project is to create a youthful vibrant environment for students, creating formal-informal learning spaces. The site has a heritage significance, with a lush green cover which adds to the serenity of the space. Designing a campus with hostel facilities for students, alongwith an animal hospital and rehabilitation facility, the brief also includes designing an animal cafe. Preserving the existing vegetation and creating a micro-climate, enhancing the human-animal-environment interactive experience is the key concept.

The site is situated on Malabar Hill one of the seven islands of early Mumbai. The crematorium is the only one in ward D. The site with its prominent north south orientation has a sea on the west. The Banganga crematorium is the only crematorium in Mumbai which is located on a part of naturally sloping ground towards the sea. The site has major historical importance because of Banganga tank and Walkeshwar temple which is merely 200mts away. The project aims at redefining the idea of a crematorium. Various interpretations relating Life, Death and Memory were drawn, forming a concept. The poet Maurice Maeterlinck said in 1911 about cremation: “Purified by fire, the memory lives in the heights as a beautiful idea; and death is naught but an immortal birth cradled in flame.” As Life implies Death, and Death implies Life, there is a duality in every aspect, through which we experience emotions Happiness and Sadness. These interpretations have been expressed architecturally through Light and Dark, Mass and Void, Concave and Convex form.

The Mumbai metro, cutting across the island city, suburbs and MMR, brings tremendous development potential. The metro rail infrastructure has a positive impact on land value, specially the zone in its immediate surroundings. MMRCL had thus evolved such a policy which shortlists land uses integrated along with the metro stations- hospitality, commercial, retail among the most viable uses. Prabhadevi/Siddhivinayak Metro station is one such great potential, given its central location and next to one of the most preeminent religious site in the country. The corporation thus aspires to develop and invite design proposals for a business hotel and mid-size, high end retail facility. It also wishes to construct its own head office building, considering the prime and central location. This tri-pronged development will also add value to the existing urban setting and the surrounding, by an expected dynamic architecture. It is visualized as a kind of mini high-street throb, thronged by all the three users and public.

CONCEPT

Amidst the chaos, Amidst the bustling trail, Honking cars, construction, clamour everywhere! Yet, the tranquality of morning prayers Still prevails. The city that never sleeps, But only dreams. The city that connects the rich, the poor, the ordinary, Into a new realm. The divide exists, Social, cultural, physical. This leads to discipline, Communities, people and vehicles. Yet what binds all together, Can be seen, can be felt. Amidst the chaos, Even peace can be felt. If only one changes the path, and dares to divert the trail. Amidst the chaos, Even peace can be felt.

Location : Aachara, Konkan SEMESTER 2, 2019

The semester 2 study tour went to Aachara, a settlement on the coast of Arabian sea in south Konkan. The settlement had Wadis (sub-settlements) and wadis consisted of Wadas (clusters). Two such waadis- Pirawadi and Jamdul, were documented using triangulation method.The settlement was blessed with natural resources like the sea, creek of an estuary, mangroves, trees like coconut, arecanut, jackfruit etc, an island of Jamdul and a peninsula of Pirawadi. The whole village comes to life during the festive seasons. Gaavpalan is a unique community festival, at the advent of monsoon wherein the whole village vacates to allow nature take its poll. The village has basic amenities like school, Panchayat, post office, religious places like Mandirs, Dargah, Church, spaces for activities like crab farming, oyster culture and a bus stop where a bus would arrive daily in the morning and evening.

In the delight of exploring life on levels with diverse variations, the Second year(A) students mapped and documented the two settlements of Narkanda and Kotgarh. Nestled in the beautiful setting showcasing magnificent snow capped peaks separated by deep and distinct valleys and a river, the two settlements unravelled some uncommon stories. While one was evidently a self sustaining old vernacular settlement with a colonial history, the other proved to be a modern town with facilities up to date. Owing to understanding the local construction techniques, the space division and the fabric of these settlements along with the ethnicity and culture of local residents, the study tries to seek the potential of further interventions that would be beneficial to their functioning.

The study of the settlements has been presented through the medium that focuses on variations in levels and colours, both talking about the two very interesting aspects of both the settlements. MDF board panels were drafted by hand and laser cut to from the silhuette of each elevation. Subsequently painted and assembled in order, the exhibit tries to provide a glimpse into the life of these villages.

D E TA I L S O F P R O J E C T A three-phased research based on Architectural Psychology, the end product being a compilation to be published. The research universe has been categorised into 11 areas ranging from Cultural Directives and construction techniques to the architecture of Surreal spaces. Each topic is being worked upon in a team consisting of an architect and a psychologist, to collate and analyse the data available, and generate new interrelationships between theories and design. The topic, ‘Heritage Architecture and its Psychological implications’ is the focus of my study. The first phase of the research in this topic aims to derive logic in design, the involvement of psychology while designing back in time and the perception of spaces today - both by inhabitants and visitors. The research methodology includes intensive reading, weekly discussions with the project head, and reaching out to experts for developing insights about the topic. The research has progressed into the creation of a timeline of ancient civilisations, drawing connections and identifying epochs of architectural advancement among various civilisations, simultaneously drawing psychological interpretations through the data.

ABSTRACT The surroundings of any living or a nonliving entity are marked by everything that is encompassed in its physical domain. Everyday experiences in an environment develop into a cognitive identity and affect and alter the way living beings react or behave. Behavior is governed by a complex network of stimuli and is a multifaceted discipline of responses. Understanding human psychology in architecture is inherently necessary, architecture being the art of designing ‘human space’,. The article explains the term ‘spatial empathy’ and its relationship with human space through everyday examples, further connecting it to the idea of spatial order. According to Marleau-Ponty, the world is a connection between ‘me’ and the ‘other’, the bond which emerges upon acknowledging that we are surrounded by the same atmosphere. (Duarte & Pinheiro, 2016). As we experience space, considering it as the ‘other’, we trigger intangible reactions based on memory. Even though it is impossible to ever truly be in someone else’s shoes, it instills a sense of responsibility in the way we affect and are affected in space. We thus start associating feelings to spaces. Although feelings are unique and seldom predictable, the act of sensorial interactions is more objective. The emphasis lies on the movement within the space, the experiences generated through the movement, and the interactions it promotes. The article tries to explore in principle certain key aspects that could enhance a designer’s approach to creating places.

ABSTRACT The urban space is inhibited by a plethora of peoples, becoming a hub of diversity. Often this diversity of populace is not balanced in terms of distribution and availability of resources, growth opportunities and societal privilege. The essay aims at understanding the concept of marginality and territorial fixation, stigmatization; its role in promoting universal design strategies. The ideas are viewed in the context of Indian politics and authoritarian heirarchy. Rather than being diffused throughout the working class areas, certain marginalised communities have typically been demarcated and restricted their spatial boundaries in the city, limiting their scope of living standard and increasing the social divide. Human space may often fall into the background of a person’s perception. Although if it disrupts the wants or needs of the person, it returns back to the foreground of consciousness. The non-inclusion is not deliberate, however due to lack of conscious planning and design, discrimination prevails. The essay concludes with addressing the neccesity of participation of urban margins in creating places of identity in order to reduce the stigmatization that exists in urban centres.

POLITICS IN ARCHITECTURE Essay Writing (Competition) P U B L I C AT I O N : K V D F F O R U M SEMESTER 7, 2021

ABSTRACT The identity of an environment exists as a perception of its users, and thus, architecture can also be defined as a social, political and ecological still (memory) of that time and idea in context. A designer has the challenging responsibility to address the diverse users and disciplines in a singular response. The market, however, deals with the need of the hour by providing solutions which are generic, disregarding the users and their realities. The essay discuses the role that an architect or a designer plays in directing resources, inevitably developing a political stance. Being political doesn’t necessarily mean pushing one’s political agenda, rather acquiesce to the state interests. Stressing on the fact that an architect cannot alter the way a society functions is important, because it simply does not have such a stretch. However, what can be expected from an architect is certainly a morally correct, sensitive construct to sweep a variegated society; ultimately indirectly shaping the progression of society. The arguments are supported and shaped through citing of art movements, with an emphasis on parametricism. The essay concludes with defining the stature and responsibility of an architect in society, in creation of a built environment that itself addresses the state affairs.

BLOG Several meanings of ‘space’ in different parts of speech are available under various categories, ranging from commerce to narcotics. However, in architecture, the idea of space can be explained through the concept of time. Patrik Schumacher suggests in ‘Concept of Space in Architecture’ that historically, the idea of space emerged as the essential goal of the architect; that architecture is the art of space making. This notion changed over the course of time, not literally but conceptually, and is still debatable. A space exists when it can be experienced in time, and thus depends on time for its manifestation. As rightly expressed by Jeremy Till in ‘Architecture in Space-Time’, our experience of space is conditioned through time and memory. Time is an abstract container of events. As we experience a space physically, we acknowledge the passage of time through our actions: sitting, walking, climbing. The evident aspect of time in architecture is the aging of a building. However, the most important aspect, that forms the interrelationship of time and space, is as described by Karsten Harris, the ‘terror of time’ i.e the fear of mortality. He sees architecture as one of the ways to address that fear. The poem Ozymandias, by P.B Shelly, is a classic example of the fear of impermanence. This fear can easily be seen in architecture, where we tend to capture a building in its most glorious visage while forgetting that eventually it has to deal with the wrath of time. By hoping for it to remain static, it gets distanced from truth, or as we can call in today’s lingo, ‘expectation vs reality.’ The presumption of permanence of monumental weighty structures is misleading. We can no longer take space as well as time to be granted. The idea of space being static in itself leads to monotony. To glorify space as it changes with time, rising above mere aesthetics is integral, for sustainability and to remain in reality
