Site being little small according to required campus planning. I have tried to put all the spaces and brief requirement effeciently without comprimising any amenities. Considering the main focal point in centre, all three structure are orientated in such way that each building inspires each along with maintaining the harmony between them through material and key concept of evolution that is from historic to modernization.

conclusion & outcomes • Through this thesis project I have learned many things about detailing required in spaces for a campus planning of Fine Arts & Applied Arts College.

• Tried to achieve a bond between Art & Architecture through evolution of structure from Historic to Modernization. Learned that Art & Architecture are closely connected.

• Learned how Architectural Spaces make a difference for an ordinary man or an Artist. Like the way architectural spaces creates a impact and inspires people for creating an art.

• Architecture and the landscape with the site context can provide a medium to connect with nature and get motivated through architectural elements.

• Outcomes of the Project are such as Sustainability is a good approach towards better design, better living, better learning space, meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

• Learned how Passive strategies play an important role for any design considering the climatology with it. Also how to reduce carbon foot print by choosing right material for construction.

• Storm water & Waste water management is neccesary for huge campuses like this. Also how to make an energy effeicent buildings by using natural means such as Solar Panels.

• Tried to achieve and create a healthy environment where people with disability can also learn without discrimination considering the universal design.

THANK YOU.
