A SURREALIST DREAMSCAPE CONCEPTUAL SPACE
04
INTO THE RABBIT HOLE COMPETITION 2022
SURREALISM IS THE PSYCHIC AUTOMATION OF THE MIND, IN ITS PUREST FORM ALLOWING EXPRESSION TO BE EXERCISED WITHOUT THE CONTROL OF REASON WITH CHILDLIKE CURIOSITY, THE INTENT WAS TO CREATE A DREAMSCAPE THAT ALLOWS JOY & HEALING TO TAKE PLACE IN A SPACE UNBOUND BY THE RIGIDITY, RULES & NORMS OF WHAT IS EXPECTED & ALLOWED TO BE CONSIDERED "NORMAL" IN SOCIETY FREE OF MONOTONY, THE BUILDING IS CONCEPTUALIZED AS A FLOATING FORM NESTLED BETWEEN THE LUSCIOUS, TALL HILLS FULL OF FOLIAGE & THE VAST WAVES OF THE OCEAN CREATING A CONNECTION WITH ELEMENTS OF WATER, GREENERY, THE WIND, AND CLOUDS.
THE STRUCTURE IS CONCEIVED ALONG A LINEAR PLAN. STARTING AT AN ARCHED PORTICO THE FORM TRANSITIONS INTO THE BLUE LOBBY CONSISTING OF CURVED CANOPIED ARCHES
FROM THE SOUTH OF THE STRUCTURE, WATERS ARE CHANNELED FROM A NATURAL WATER STREAM PRESENT VIA THE WATER STRIDE, ALLOWING WATER TO PASS THROUGH THE STEPS INTO TWO WATER CHAMBERS AND THEN EXIT FROM UNDERNEATH THE FORM FALLING INTO THE OCEAN WATERS.
AN INFINITY EDGE POOL IS DESIGNED TO THE WEST TO OFFER VIEWS OF THE SETTING SUN BEHIND THE LUSH HILLS ON THE EAST, A CHAMBER IS DESIGNED FLOATING WITH THE CLOUDS OFFERING SUNRISE & THE MORNING MIST TO HEAL, WITH FLOATING ROCKS SERVING AS A WALKWAY AND ALLOWING ACCESS.
TOWARDS THE SOUTH, A COMPLETELY OPEN GREEN LOUNGE IS DESIGNED TO SERVE AS A PLACE TO PAUSE SIT & REFLECT IN THE GREENERY OF NATURE WITH FRESH BREEZE & VIEWS OF THE WATERS.
THE FORM WAS PLANNED TO INCORPORATE ELEMENTS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING MENTAL HEALTH, RELAXATION, AND HEALING, SUCH AS THE USE OF SOOTHING COLORS SUCH AS BLUE & GREEN, ACCESS TO GREEN LANDSCAPES AND SEASCAPE, USE OF SOFT, CURVED LINES IN THE DESIGN WHILE CREATING PATTERNS THROUGH ARCHITECTURE

MANY VIRUSES HAVE GONE BY AND OTHERS MIGHT COME IN FUTURE, BUT THE SURVIVAL INSTINCTS OF HUMANS ARE INEVITABLE DIVIDED BY BARRIERS LIKE RELIGION AND CASTE, WE ALL UNITE, WHEN A PROBLEM LIKE THIS CONFRONTS US THOUGH THE PANDEMIC CAUSED SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE WORLDWIDE ECONOMY AND LIFESTYLE, IT DID GIVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO UPLIFT THE HEALTH STANDARDS, BE IT THROUGH A GALI, NUKKAD OR A PUBLIC TRANSIT. WE AS ARCHITECTS CAN PROPOSE DESIGN CHANGES, BUT WITH THE GENERAL MASSES OBEYING THEM, WE CAN SURELY DEFEAT THE PANDEMIC AND COME OUT, STRONGER THAN EVER,
THE MAJOR IDEOLOGY BEHIND THE DESIGN WAS TO SIMPLIFY THE CIRCULATION PATTERNS OF THREE MAJOR TRAFFIC SOURCES, NAMELY BUSES, PRIVATE VEHICLES/AUTOS, AND PEDESTRIANS SEPARATE PUBLIC ENTRANCE AND EXITS PROVIDED A CLEAR DISTINCTION BEETWEEN THE ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE PASSENGERS AND REDUCED THEIR INTERSECTION TO A MINIMUM.

THELA CART
IN A COUNTRY WHERE A MAJOR PART OF THE POPULATION ROAMS ON THE STREETS FOR LIVELIHOOD, IT'S NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP THE LOCAL VENDORS AND THEIR THELA GAADI, SPECIALLY AT A PUBLIC TRANSIT.
THAT'S WHY WE'VE FOUND A SOLUTION THAT NOT ONLY SUPPORTS THE THELA SYSTEM, BUT ALSO COMPLIES WITH COMMON HEALTH GUIDELINES FOR SOCIAL DISTANCING.
THE CART HAS 4 DRAWERS, EACH WITH 2 COMPARTMENTS WHERE RETAIL ITEMS ARE STORED ALL FOUR DRAWERS ARE ARRANGED AROUND A RECTANGULAR FRAME SO THAT EACH CUSTOMER IS AT LEAST ONE METER AWAY FROM THE OTHERS.
GLASS PROTECTION PREVENTS DIRECT CONTACT BETWEEN SELLER AND CUSTOMER. A SANITIZER IS PLACED ABOVE EACH DRAWER TO ENSURE THE CLEANLINESS OF THE DRAWER HANDLES.
THE DISTANCING
THE DISTANCING BENCH IS AN ADAPTATION, IN RESPONSE TO THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC, WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE AESTHETICS.
THE SEATINGS ARE ARRANGED FACING DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS AND AT LEAST 4 FT AWAY FROM EACH OTHER AS SUGGESTED BY WH O
THE SPACE IN BETWEEN IS FILLED WITH FLOWER VASE TO CREATE A BUFFER AND LIMIT THE TRANSMISSION THROUGH AIR
