Educational Institute Experiential Learning Center The process of learning is an experntial process governed by the multiple needs of an individual.These needs vary from one individual to the another, gving each one a different learning experience. The project is inspired by the needs and experiences of the specially abled which vary from their regular conterparts. It then aims at infusing these experiences into our daily lives to create a seprate set of learning experiences.Considering this aim during the course of the project multiple programs of various natures that governed spaces were created.

Process as an agency The Studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s park

The project focuses on Process as an agency which carries out various designs using diagramming as an important tool.It picks the concept of the project as a design driver over its content and context.It discards all stylistic approaches and focusses purely on research to generate diagrams. The project takes three different programs those of Student housing ,Public parks and Parking lots.It explores the potential of each program seprately with the help of diagrams and then enquires upon the relationship these programs may or maynot share with each other.

Cluster Redevelopment Mixed - use Tetris

The project aims at mixed use development of an entire neighbourhood keeping in mind the diversity,history,and cultural importance of its site.It is a redevelopment project that not only integrates all the existing users of the site with their housing but also tries to create working areas within the same cluster.

concept drawing

The project inspired by the game of tetris and the idea of a self sustained neighbourhood has various functions and spaces fitting into each other to create school, community spaces, markets and housing.

Suburban Sprawls Revitalising Suburbs The process of Gentrification is rapidly replacing the local cultre of workshops and small living units with Sky scrapers and Malls in the P-North ward of Mumbai. The project aims at breaching the thin line between Gentrification and Revitalisation by giving The Somwari Bazzar, a local weekly bazzar, a permanent identity which will help it sustain the growing pressures of Economy.The somwari bazzar was picked because it is an important node for the people and an event with potential to gain and sustain an important identity which will help the area to survive as a whole.

Concept as Design Encroachment

The first germs of the city of Mumbai sprouted out of Bhuleshwar.It has evolved over time and adapted to the changes taking place in the city. This evolution and adaptation is evident in terms of the diversity and variation that exists within the area. The study tries to look at the various encroachments in these areas on to streets, balconies and building compounds keeping in mind the time of it evolution, materiality, spatial and programmatical diversity that existed then and today.

Assembly Disassembly Piece in the puzzle

The workshop began with the assembling and disassemblinng of complex machines.The scooter engine was bought and disassembled to understand its working.Similarly in the second phase titled "city as a machine" various smaller components that form the city fabric and help in its working were understood . The model is an abstract representation where the city was a jigsaw puzzle and the site a tiny piece in the puzzle.The other functions on the site represented by different sized boxes help form the fabric and working of the jigsaw piece.

Complexity in Nature Desert Rose

The studio investigates various functional and structural complexities in nature through a process of diagrams and models to devise a dynamic installation based on specific reactions to changing environmental conditions. Desert Rose refers to a gypsum crystal found underneath the surface in arid and semi arid regions. Depending upon the amount of heat and organic matter present in the area, the crystal begins to show properties of branching and penetration at specfic angles.These properties have been mimiced in the exhibit

Evolo Skyscraper The Escapist Refuge

The year 2015 saw one of the worst refugee crises the world has ever faced and the source of this unrest can be traced back to the civil unrest that has been simmering in Syria for over half a decade. In our story, an architect living in this time of crisis, and facing all the horrors the situation accompanies, boldly imagines a vivid parallel reality much like Aliceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wonderland, where she envisions to inject the lives of distraught refugees with joy, provide them with a livelihood and at the same time make them less formidable to the people around the world. The escapistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refuge is thus a manifestation of the protagonistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wild, colourful, eccentric and child-like optimism, which restores her faith in humanity during the current dismal times we as a global community are faced with.

Skyscraper Competition Group work | Semester 8 International waters

Since half the world has turned their backs on the Syrians, seas of refugee camps only continue to compound. Living conditions keep deteriorating and moral continues to plummet. It's not about managing its about sustaining. The key lies in empowerment, in making them self sufficient, giving them a livelihood and reinstating their place in the world.

Overcrowding in refugee camps is one major problems the Syrians face today.In order to decongest, and give them an opportunity at living normally with joy and hope we chose to create a housing section based on a modular design.

Trauma is a term that speaks more of psychological distress rather than a physical injury. The strategy we deploy therefore, on an overall is one aimed at creating experiences through senses, color and relearning,

The sea allows for an absolutely new and almost self sufficient system with food, water, energy, lighting and oxygen strategies that are sustainable, non-polluting .

Aliceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fall down the rabbit hole was accentuated by disorienting spatial quality which is recreated with the help of the sea. As they enter this marine world, twirling fish and warping perspectives serve as a precursor to the otherworldly experiences.

The Cheshire Cat and the caterpillar bring forth themes such visual deception and heightened experiences synonymous to psychedelia. The design provides for these very experiences in the form a mist garden and the phsycadellic dome

An absolutely obvious and unmistakable theme in the whole of the Alice, is that of scale distortion be it in the form of magnification or reduction. This theme finds itself expressed at various points in the structure and with the help of the sea. .

Measure Drawing The Royal Complex

The royal complex of mandangarh is situated 50 km from the main city in Madhya pradesh.Popularly known as Mandu,the town is located amidst the Vindhya Range at an elevation of 2000ft above sea level.It was initially founded by the Parmar rulers who made it thier capital.Later,It was conquered by Delhi Sultans who named it Shadiabad, meaning "city of Joy".it is known for its fine architecture which is a fusion of afghan and hindu style. Hindola Mahal - It is the house of the queens . It also houses other celebrations carried out by the king for the queen. The complex has other parts like the jahaz Mahal ,Champa baodi and baz bahadur palace. The entire complex was measure drawn by our class during a study trip to Mandu in November 2013.

Trip Documentation Jetwing Light house

The hotel is sited on a rocky promontory and sits tightly between the main road and the sea about a mile to the north of Galle. The main entrance and reception buildings of the hotel hug the southern tip of the ridge and offer views towards the Galle fort, the entrance and service points being housed within rubble retaining walls that enclose the lower slopes of the rock. The strategy is to both confront the relentless crashing of the waves and provide contrasting areas of shelter and tranquillity. No single space is self-contained or complete: each is in part the consequence of a previous space and the anticipation of a subsequent one; each retains links with its neighbours and with the outside so that the eye is continually invited to explore. The architecture itself is muted, but offers subtle memories of Moorish palaces, ocean liners, ancient manor houses and colonial villas
