" I am an architecture student trying to experience as much as I can before the robots take over. I love public speaking and writing. When I am not working, you can find me listening to the Beatles or hanging out with the Chihuahuas."
Hello, I'm Hitarth Dev Singh and this is my portfolio.
By means of Introduction, I am a 22-year-old architecture student seeking to learn and expand my knowledge in the architectural design field. I am passionate about building science and the professional practice it involves
I was born and raised in Lucknow, the city of Nawabs from where I am currently pursuing my architectural education. In my four years of architectural education, I had the opportunity to work on several different projects on interiors, residential, commercial, medical and urban design This clubbed with several different leadership opportunities moulded me to become a good player at teamwork as well as a better problem solver.
I have a great interest in climatology, design development, woodworking, model making and rendering I am a fast learner and am always searching for the best solution to every problem
I am glad to share with you my latest works.

THE TETRIS BUILDING
Location : Sector 154 , Noida , Uttar Pradesh
Year : 2020
Undergraduate Design Studio - 5
Category : Commercial + Retail
A Commercial Office Complex was proposed at Sector 154 Noida The land use of the site is mixed-use development as per the master plan
The design caters to the needs of the area of Noida Sector 154 and adjoining commercial sectors The design is highly sensitive to Sustainable development and lowering the carbon emission, thus the building is climate responsive I have tried to encourage the use of innovative passive design techniques, optimized solar energy intake and cross-ventilation, functional open spaces and the creation of micro-climate through building and landscape elements so as to lower the load on mechanical means.

THE PLACEBO HOSPITAL
Location: Sector 17, K-II Zone, Dwarka
Year: 2020
Undergraduate Design Studio - 6
Category: Healthcare
Continuing the theme of the Placebo Hospital, the project focuses on how the architectural environment addresses the needs of the user (or patient) and the information discovered through research and not the accommodation of medical function. The drugs are replaced by space, light, materiality, views, smell, degree of privacy, interaction and accommodation of custom The design advises looking beyond cliche and focus on the detail of how space, and its qualities, can affect the state of mind

ROSEATE HOUSING
Location : Basant Kunj , Sector J , Lucknow.
Year : 2021
Undergraduate Design Studio - 7
Category : Residential Housing
The concept of housing is still at a very nascent stage The layouts of the existing housing societies are conspicuous by the absence of social interaction spaces, more importantly, a dialogue amongst dwellers. The broad objective of this housing programme was to create an adequate supply of good dwellings for a variety of income groups and also provide an environment conducive to a habitat Successful group housing schemes owe their success, not to an extravaganza of facilities but rather to their overall design concepts which afford personal, private and community living possible and also enjoyable

THE HOUSING PUZZLE
Location : Tathawade , Pimpri Chinchwad , Pune
Year : 2021
Design Competition
Category : Residential Housing
The conventional model of development of building blocks into separate apartment complexes has formed a culture of dividing citizens into closed groups. The sense of security and companionship that community housing allows one to experience is eventually lost. In today's urban context, it is the skill and prowess of design, that can engage users to make the most of this sense of collectivity The proposed solution urges to break the pattern of regimenting bland corridors and placeless common spaces and weave in a sense of the complexity of movement and spaces, to improve the user's sense of belonging in their environment

The idea behind including miscellaneous work in the creative casket to showcase my various softskills that lie hidden in the layers of work that I have done apart from my academic ventures. These explorations are for the most part a reflection of my personality and showcase to the world that I am trying to experience the world before the robots take over
COMMISSIONED RENDERINGS

COURTYARD DESIGN THE FIBBONACI SPIRAL
W th the users housed under a Kadamba tree, the space provides mult ple uses mainly for interaction purposes The Amphitheatre like seating houses space for phys cal public interaction, which I felt is lacking post the pandemic
The shape has been designed so as to not interrupt the academ c areas and also accommodates a stand ng desk for users to work
