Project Brief:

With the Intent to draw students out of their rooms and into opportunities to live, learn, and develop as a community, The Student Hub integrates academic and social experiences around a lively student zone with views, clear orientation, and destination for collaboration. Transitional indoor/outdoor functional spaces adds a further dimension for the student experience and to enhance the relationship between the building and its landscape.

Student Life Professionals are strategically integrated throughout the building to serve and support students.

Site Location:

Site Analysis:

Proposed Site

The Site is Located in the heart of institutional region of Sitapura. If we see the current Linkages around the radius of 500 Metres, we have major conectivity of main road running west to east which has facilities like hospitals, an elevated road, ATM”s, and some of the institutes connecting directly with it. The rail road running from SE to NW is dividing the whole patch of land in two parts the residential zone and the institutional zone.

Urban Connections Activities Zone/ Pause Points Land Use map

Massing Evolution:

The axis of the road network forms the massing of the building. it defines the movement and entry to the site. further along the road side it clears the area for entry plaza which allows the integration of built and urban surroundings.

Open Amphitheatre is created in the courtyard formed which lead to the formation of central plaza and then a building mass is extracted to connect the Central plaza with the Entrance plaza. where people come together to enjoy the space.

The sports field is extended creating a folded field that accomodates indoor sports and games facilities underneath. A courtyard is created which makes the underneath space more interesting and playful.

07 Zen-Library

Year: 2019

Category: Competition (Anti Library)

Team: Mohit, Parth, Priyansh

Theme: Public Architecture Site Area: 1064 Sq.m

Built Up: 10,000 Sq.m Location: Tokyo, Japan

Tools Used: Rhino, Vray, Photoshop, Sketches

Project Brief:

Creating an icon that will have and contribute to the culture of the city of Tokyo. The aim of the competition is to create an iconic 21st century ‘public library’ in the city of Tokyo, Japan and debate its role in a ‘digital age’. The proposal must aim to become a solution to the frequently questioned vitality of a library by enhancing and transforming its capabilities as a ‘knowledge sharing and research prototype’ that will become a model for the future libraries of the world.

The site for the intervention is located at an edge of Kabukicho district and against the railways coming from Shinjuku station. The site faces the Yasukuni Dori promenade which runs adjacent to it providing easy access and visual access from multiple locations in the vicinity

Zen Library focuses on creating a position betweeen what japan was and what has japan embarked to be. it creates a space where youngsters can vicariously live the essence of japan that drives it everyday.

A major concept woven within the design is something that relates directly to the giving nature of the people of Japan, where no matter how inter-twined they are in their lives, they take time out to give something back to the society.

it also breaks away from the notions how libraries are generally imagined, and tries to create a futuristic image of what it can be.
