PORTFOLIO 2021-2022 CHETAN AGGARWAL
A typical Indian street
Hello! I am Chetan Aggarwal, an architect from Delhi, India. Designing cities for the people captivates me, and I strongly reckon on sustainable, ethical and responsible design as the real engines of harmonious growth for our built environment.
I believe architecture spreads beyond the boundaries of desiging and shaping cities, and in fact shapes each and every individual's behaviour towards their surroundings. Architecture moulds communities together, and integrates them with the natural environment around them.
In addition to pursuing architecture, I incline myself towards research and critical writing about socio-cultural as well as design trends, building of resilience in communities for their built environment, art and design.

TITLE : TACTICAL INTERVENTION AROUND THE PRIMARY HEALTHCARE CENTER AT KUSTIA SLUM, KOLKATA CLIENT : SAVE
THE CHILDREN INDIA FROM HERE,
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Urban Resilience Programme Phase-II, implemented by Save the Children (also known as Bal Raksha Bharat) aimed to increase preparedness and resilience in urban communities and schools in India. After a successful run of three years of the five-year program under Phase-II, the SHG aimed to empower the children and their communities in urban slums and targeted schools to become disaster and risk resilient through an integrated child-centric urban resilience program.

SITE DOCUMENTATION AND ANALYSIS
Lack of provision of public spaces or playing areas for the residents of Kustia Slum.
PROPOSED AREA FOR INTERVENTION
The site is surrounded by residential buildings, tailoring shops, leather goods manufacturing/crafting units as well as schools and congested markets on the north and west side, and a canal on the north side. Since the ward had only a few open public spaces of this scale, the chosen site for intervention became a dumping ground for solid waste from nearby buildings.
KEY LEARNINGS
Methodology towards Tactical Intervention
Promoting participatory design strategies, community engagement and raising awareness towards responsibility and ownership of community towards public spaces as their basic necessity.
Use of recycled waste material, locally available materials and construction methods for low cost and sustainable tactical interventions.

PROJECT 03 | URBAN DESIGN AND RESEARCH | FORM BASED CODES
TITLE
: Development of Guidebooks for Form Based Codes for Indian Cities
CLIENT : Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation
Defining Form Based Codes
Form Based Codes (FBC) is a planning and zoning tool that is used for regulating development using physical form rather than land use segregation as the organizing principle for the code. It aims at contributing to better quality of life by fostering a high-quality public realm.
In the Indian context FBC can be adopted and applied as mandatory code, hybrid code or parallel code. The scale of application can be at the city level, area/ neighborhood level or project/ site level.

The plot level regulations contributing towards design of interface of Urban Environment are ound in the Building Bye Laws, which derive its basis from the Development Control Norms of the local Master/ Development Plans. To understand the Gaps in regulations of urban form vis-à-vis plot development, the FBC parameters of IRSDCs Manuals have been compared with the building bye laws of selected cities, URDPFI Guidelines and MBBL. The summary of findings is provided in Table 1 below and explanation thereafter.

The Master/ Development Plans of Indian Cities are Planning tools which establish the Plan vision of a city, the allocation of resources and indicates the vision for its Urban Environment. These also define the Urban Design Vision for the city. The Form Based Codes are regulatory tools to implement design of urban environment defined in its Master/ Development Plans. As such the Parameters of Layout Planning from IRSDCs Manuals for Station Development including Commercial Development have been compared with the Master/ Development Plans of the seelcted cities, URDPFI Guidelines and Building Bye Laws.
