Creating extraordinary with creativity needs a mind like that. Tackling problems and coming up with best solution is my perquisite.

6 | CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
The studio aimed at designing an institution which would house functions to develop skills of people living in nearby chawls. It will enable them to have new means of income while taking care of their children through balbhavan and allowing other members of family to add to the family income. This centre will be the foundation place of honing their skills and moving towards a better life. Brick with sloping roof has been used to let denizens connect with the institution as its the image of a home people are most familiar with, while providing a vernacular identity to the institution.

Jethabhai Parmar Garden Climatically oriented providing less direct heat gain with more shaded area percentage. No compound walls except for the one facing road because there needed a break from a very hectic road to a UCD centre Providing a vernacular image to the UCD centre to relate with denizens SITE PLAN Eventually reaching to function at 1st level Increasing level on south acts as compound wall making public intrusion less while still maintaining a relationship with street and people living across it.

The studio researched the potential of the application of combining unit design for the economically weaker sections and the middle-income sections to the development of housing in high-density low-rise urban environments to examine ways in which these modular compositions can be arranged to create public and private spaces and connections with their existing urban surroundings.

Lunar Space Design Competition Ever since the beginning of mankind, we have developed an unexplained affinity towards the various celestial bodies around us, our captivation being held by the Moon at the center of all of it. With space exploration entering its golden age, we will now need architects and designers to create interplanetary human habitation beyond Earth. The challange was to design a Lunar Experience Centre + Research Centre for the first humans to enhance their stay on Mars. The aim was to design a selfsustaining living space for these initial inhibitants.
