Architecture Portfolio

My name is Jayant, I’m an architecture undergraduate from Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur. From what I’ve learned from in college, architecture is about problem solving, structural thinking, rather than just creating a good, eye-catching outlook. I consider myself as a passionate and detail-oriented architect with interest in architectural designs at different scales, use of different materials, new construction technologies and digital design. I love cycling and constantly curious to know different cultures and places that exist around the world and because of that I love learning new languages and open myself for new education.

This house is situated in a densely populated residential area on a plot measuring 42x75 meters. The primary objective was to create a private space within the bustling surroundings and design an visually captivating structure amidst the chaotic backdrop. The client’s requirements were for a simple and spacious residence to accommodate a family of five. They desired a contemporary house featuring a formal living area and a swimming pool. Additionally, the house needed to incorporate passive cooling techniques due to the hot and arid climate of the location in Jaipur. The client also requested separate rooms for their parents, children, and two guest rooms in addition to a master bedroom.

The residence was to be designed for a couple, their parents and a son, which provided generous comfort and luxury. The clean, bold lines forms the characteristic language of the house. The house is linear that runs along the east-west axis and divided among public and private spaces. Rajasthan features extreme temperatures in both summer and winters, so the house is designed such that minimal heat penetrates but at the same time providing maximum natural light and ventilation. With no above floor level above the house expands on ground, housing five bedrooms, a lavish living and a luxurious swimming pool that overlooks the family area. The traditional chini-khana at the backdrop of the pool blends firmly with the contemporary form of the building leading it a very urban look. The main door opens up to a passage that runs along the axis of house in windward direction, connecting every space of the house. The parents bedroom and the master bedroom has been designed as to provide the privacy and near to the family area thus respecting the relations.

Indian Railways has embarked on an ambitious initiative to revive the entire railway network through the implementation of the Station Redevelopment program. The program aims to renovate railway stations and their surrounding areas following the principles of Smart City development. This endeavor seeks to improve passenger facilities, ensure convenient accessibility to stations, and make optimal use of railway land.

The Ministry of Railways (MOR) has made the decision to engage private participation in the development or redevelopment of specific ‘A-1’ and ‘A’ category railway stations throughout India.

The main focus of the railway station redevelopment will involve enhancing the quality of passenger facilities through new constructions and renovations. This will encompass the redevelopment of station buildings, platform surfaces, circulating areas, and more, with the goal of effectively meeting the needs of passengers.

Subject properties are located at either sides of Udaipur railway station. The station lies in the central part of the city and is located at a walking distance from the city centre of Udaipur. The region is well connected by road and is located in close vicinity to prominent areas of Udaipur city. Popular lakes of Udaipur City like Badi Lake, Pichola Lake, Fateh Sagar Lake and Udaisagar Lake are located in close proximity to subject site(s). Being a tourist destination, the city has demand for hotels across categories and support retail.

The station has five platforms for passenger trains and one platform for goods trains. Commercial blocks, along with a community park, have been developed on the north end of the railway land. The West and East gates have been expanded to provide more parking space and improved circulation. Separate access points for vehicles, pedestrians, and taxis have been created to ensure a smooth flow of crowds. The large roof now features separate floors for arrivals and departures, waiting areas, circulation areas, services, as well as retail outlets.

The main station building features an advanced structure made of steel, aluminum, and wood, complemented by a polycarbonate sunroof measuring 25*15 meters as a single structure. Each unit is equipped with natural ventilation, natural lighting, and natural exhaust systems in case of fire. The platforms are covered with a space frame truss, featuring solar control glass and section frame cladding made of gypsum fiberboard.

concourse is crowned by a meticulously designed wooden and steel roof, following a precise geometric pattern. Delicate columns support the roof, with their upper into eight parts to allow sunlight to filter through the skylight. The floor-to-ceiling glass facade on North create a seamless connection between the platform enabling passengers to understand the station’s layout and anticipate their movements.

platforms are adorned with Udaipur Pink marble and Makrana white, extending and harmonizing the pedestrian areas beyond the concourse.
