RESIDENCE DESIGN
CONCEPTUAL DESIGN AND SPACIAL ARRANGEMENT: The Basic Concept of the house was derived from the POL HOUSES in the walled city of Ahmedabad (now one of the World Hritage Site).It has the central courtyard courtya surrounded by the social spaces. The relationship between open,semi open and personal spaces plays very important role in this type of febric and has a properly organized hierarchy.
SPATIAL ARRANGEMENT AND HIERARCHY OF THE SPACES: Different spaces are interconected with other spaces with a specific hierarchy which leads to the efficient and intresting connectivity between spaces.
CLIENTS AND THEIR REQUIRMENTS: The client was 58 year old MLA with total seven members in the family.Their requirments were exposed RCC house with five bedrooms, living room, kitchen, dinning, family room,and client’s office with the parking facality for two cars and bikes and visitors parking.
PROGRAMME DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMATIC SPACES AND REQUIRED AREA: The site area was 1000sqm with total built up area of 450 sqm. The required area for diiferent functions were derived from the live case study and literature study of different standards of India and different parts of the world. The spaces were designed with the different simulation of the furntiture in the spaces and circulation patte

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT: The design was with response to the contours. The spacial organization of the house was divided into mainly four spaces- Public-Semipublic-Semiprivate-Private.
RESIDENCE DESIGN DESIGN OUTCOMES The site is located on the contour land with the slop of 1:8. Level difference from the bottom level to the top level is 5mts. The are in all five There bedrooms, five toilets, family room, living room, kitchen, dinning and office. Large garden area of around 450 sqm. The built form is dede signed retaining the existing trees and including them into the usable spaces.

MASS HOUSING CLIENT AND BACKGROUND: The client is the Housing board of Gujrat, the low rise high density housing for the lower class community living on the site of 2.1 hacters, outskerts of the city of Bhuj. Due to earthquake prone p zone high rise building are not permited. The requirements of the local peoples were to have the similar house typology and spacial quality of built and unbuilt spaces. They required equal area for the formal spaces and informal/community spaces.

MASS HOUSING
DESIGN IDEAS AND OUTCOMES: Most of the users are labours and involved in small scale industries so they required personal and community open spaces right in front of their houses, so the long interconnected pathways/verandahs creats this spaces. This spaces resembels to the spaces studied during the case studies and site analysis. The requirement of the existing house typology was also considered.

INSTITUTION DESIGN
DESIGN IDEAS AND OUTCOMES: Skill development institute is located on the bank of river sabarmati besides the historic context of Sabarmati ashram and gandhi museum by Charles Correa. The design responds to the river and the surrounding context as seen in the section. With the simple grid arrangment the spaces are flexible and can be used for multiple functions.
ABOUT SKILL DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTE AND PROGRAMME: Skill development institute is designed on the seven philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi. Skill development institute provides platform for unskilled artists to develop their skills and also the oppertunities for employment. Institute provides guidance in various handicraft of various parts of Gujrat. Skill development courses in sankheda furniture, bamboo construction, carpentry, print block making, bandhani making, block printing, zari work, bead work,etc. are provided. The main concept of the design was simplicity and the flexibility of the spaces and the multifunctional spaces.
INSTITUTION DESIGN CONCEPTUAL MODEL:
ABOUT THE SITE: The site is located on the bank of river sabarmati besides the historic context of Sabarmati ashram and gandhi museum by Charles Correa. So the design is highly influenced by gandhian philosoph
URBAN FORM
PROGRAMME AND ABOU THE SITE:
(MINOR STUDIO EXERSISE)
The site is located on the bank of river Sabarmati. The site is Calico mill compound, a brown field project of 54,000sqm. Calico mills were one of the first textile mills of India owned by Sarabhai family. The site was to redevlope into a mixed land use development including mainly offices, commercial, and residencial.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT: Calico mills comcom pound has a historic importance and now shutdown has only the old chimney standing. The design was developed creating plaza focuse at the chimney and radial development from chimney.
URBAN FORM ABOUT THE DESIGN: Calico mills compound has a hishis toric importance and now shutdown has only the old chimney standing. The design was developed creating plaza focuse at the chimney and radial development from chimney. The central open space was existing and connected the chimney plaza. The radial development was maintained in plan as well as section. There is also the visual connection of the chimney plaza and the cluster open spaces. The arcaded front face of the building towards central green space and the podium created a interconnection with the pedestrian central green space.

INSTALLATION
WALK THROUGH DOME USING PAPERTUBES
PROCESS AND DESIGN DEVELOPMENT: The structure structu is made out of papertubes with diiferent cross sectional diameter assembeled in shape of dome. Temporary supports were installed in the semi arch shape pivoted at the center. Ten arches were installed at he end for the permanent supports at regular intervals. Two openings were provided for movement through it.
PROCESS AND DESIGN DEVELOPMENT: The form was derived from the different standards and anthropometric experimentation in real scale and moulding clay in the perticular form. The clay model was then sliced at regular distance and retraced to 1:1 scale on the corrugated sheets.
INSTALLATION USES AND ITS PECULIARITIES: It has multiple uses and have multiple furniture postures in the single unit of furniture. it is 8ft X 16ft furniture fu which can be easily disambeled from one space and can again be assembeled at different space easily. At a single time it can acomodate 8-10 people.
MULTIUSE FURNITURE USING CORRUGATED SHEETS
INSTALLATION
KINETIC WATER RIPPEL SCULPTURE
ABOUT THE KINETIC SCULPTURE: The sculpture was inspired by rippeles created by water droplets in stagnant water. The mechanism was well calculate and the circular disk were assembeled at specific angel for the proper oscillation of the structure.
MECHANISM
BOTTEL SILHOUETTE: The sculpture sculptu was made out of around 2000 waste plastic bottels. Silhouette of stag is imprinted with the top part of the bottels and the background with the rear part of the bottels. Installing light source behind the sculpture creates pleasent silhouette with the diffused light.
INSTALLATION STEEL-ROPE ARCHWAY: Steel hollow pipes were we bent in the required shape and welded together in the free flowing archway. The ropes were tied from end to end in both direction and the shape was derived with the tension in the ropes. The ropes creates a wonderful experience of light and shadow.
