INTRODUCTION
As a result of growing demand, Railway station in India is facing many challenges and most of the efforts in Indian railways are targeted towards running more trains to cater to increasing demand, but improving the station’s environment to cater to that much demand is completely neglected . Redevelopment of railway stations to cater the increasing demand this will not only improve the overall passenger experience but also promote tourism and boost economic growth in the region
RAILWAY STATION REDEVELOPMENT GOAL
• Enhanced Passenger Amenities: Upgrade waiting areas, restrooms, seating arrangements, and information kiosks. I ncorporate retail spaces for convenience stores, cafes, and other amenities
• Smooth Passenger Flow: Design the layout to minimize congestion and bottlenecks. Implement clear signage and wayfinding systems to guide passengers efficiently.
• Universal Design: Ensure accessibility for passengers of all abilities. Install ramps, elevators, and tactile paving for visually impaired individuals.
• Pedestrian Friendliness: Create safe and convenient pedestrian pathways to and from the station. Integrate the station with surrounding urban infrastructure, such as sidewalks, bike lanes, and public transportation hubs.
• Seamless Connectivity: Integrate various modes of transportation, including buses, taxis, ride-sharing services, and bike-sharing systems. Provide covered drop-off and pick-up points for passengers. Enhance intermodal connectivity to facilitate seamless transfers between different modes of transportation.
The thesis aims to redesign railway stations proposing an integrated transport hub, to address the current and future needs of various users.
OBJECTIVE
Conduct a detailed study of the existing infrastructure, facilities, and services at the railway station.
Identify key areas for improvement and propose strategies for the redevelopment of the station. Redevelop the selected railway station with an integrative transit approach between the selected transport modes within the station premises
DESIGN CONCEPT
The blending of historical elements with contemporary design approaches. It involves integrating cultural heritage, such as architectural styles, materials, techniques, and symbolism, into modern design solutions.
Fusing heritage elements of Mughal architecture found in Agra, into a contemporary design
“The intersection of past and present, tradition and innovation, in order to create designs that are both culturally rich and forward-thinking.”

DESIGN CONCEPT
The design concept for the iconic station building focuses on connecting with the local art and culture while retaining the heritage value of the existing structure. The design is envisioned to accommodate future projections, ensuring the facility remains relevant and functional over time. A key aspect of the concept is the integration of both sides of the city, with the station building extending across the railway tracks. This integration is achieved through a spacious roof plaza or concourse that houses all passenger amenities in one place, alongside spaces for retail, cafeterias, and recreational facilities. Additionally, multi-level car parking (MLCP) is provided on both sides of the station to enhance accessibility. The design also emphasizes multi-modal integration, seamlessly connecting the railway station with the metro and bus stations to facilitate

GROUND LEVEL PLAN
The design floor plan of Raipur Railway Station ingeniously segregates the flow of arriving and departing passengers to enhance efficiency and minimize congestion within the building. Upon entering the station, departure passengers are guided through dedicated entrances leading to the ticketing and waiting areas, which are conveniently located close to the platforms. onversely, arriving passengers are channeled through separate exits that lead directly to baggage claim areas and onward transportation options, such as taxi stands and bus stops. This thoughtful separation not only streamlines passenger movement but also reduces the risk of overcrowding and confusion, thereby improving overall safety and comfort.

By nature, design in itself is universal. However, the sense of privilege is what ruins the whole thing. This is the one reason for imbalances in design as well as society. in order to bridge the ‘gap’ and provide a more sensitive space of work, we elevated this up a notch and decided the working scheme for the ‘special’ people to be based on the handicrafts, Art culture and rich heritage of pottery and other crafts.
MODULAR WORKING PODS
Rigid angles. sharp turns and closed space obstruct the circulation and hinder the flow
Comparatively OPEN plans help in better circulation
Free flowing and open layout, breaking the cycle of rigid barriers
Barriers for differently abled people have existed since ages in the ‘civilized’ society. Many a times these people have been exempted from and treated differently than the ‘normal’ ones. This barrier is in all the layers of existence - mental & physical.It is a pity that most of the buildings do the same. There is neither any provision for universal and special considerations for such people nor any acceptance in the society.
POLYMORPHIC
MODULE DESIGN
The work pods designed are modular in nature as to provide a free flowing work space with the freedom to rearrange the structure as per the need, they also adhere to sustainability by using locally available natural material- bamboo.
The free flowing nature is both a symbolic and literal representation of breaking the barriers setup by rigid norms of the society and building designs
“THESE ACT AS A CONNCETION BETWEEN THE SOCIAL REALM WITH THE ‘SACRED’ AND PROFOUND DETAILS OF THE ARTIST’S CREATION. THIS IS OUR CONCEPT - THE BRIDGE BETWEEN ONE’S PRIVATE SELF TO THE SOCIAL PUBLIC REALM BREAKING ALL THE BARRIERS AND MAKING THINGS EVEN FOR ALL AS THEY SHOULD BE - ‘UNIVERSAL’, MAKING IT ‘MUKTAYATAN’.“

Designing a workshop tailored for individuals with physical challenges necessitates thoughtful consideration of accessibility and inclusivity. Modular working pods offer an innovative solution to accommodate diverse needs within the space. Each pod can be customized to meet specific requirements, whether it’s adjusting the height for wheelchair accessibility or incorporating ergonomic features for comfort.

The core idea behind the design was the socio-economic development of the specially abled people and the curve of the roof is a symbolic representation of it.
The tranquil symphony of flowing water has been known to have calming effects and the same experience has been replicated by use of water fountains scattered throughout the site
Energizing the outdoor environment with movement and sound can be a factor in contributing a better work space for differently-abled people. Moving water in the form of fountains and waterfalls are best suited for creating drama and tranquility in the garden as it combines the visual interests with the
Sensory experience through imitation of the senses of hearing, smell, etc.
Movement through the gardens is enhanced through empiricism, creating a sense of calm and giving a dramatic effect to the scene.
Inspired from the local art forms of Patachitra of Kalighat and Jamini paintings, the fountain used here will give visitors and workers a better experience to understand local Bengali artforms along with providing a serene atmosphere in the garden. Terracotta and Bamboo used here will further complement the sustainability quotient. Using bamboo will also enhance the sensory experience.
