CONFIDENTIAL NEW CONSTRUCTION SAN FRANCISCO, CA; USA A repositioning project for an existing office building to be rented by a client in the IT industry. The project includes increasing the floor area for the project as well as increasing the number of floors. The building aims to be LEED-certified hence attention is given to addressing all the different LEED criteria and making the building as energy-efficient as possible.
PROJECT
02
The new facade makes use of concrete ‘hoods’ that add aesthetic value as well as shade from glare, especially in the lower floors. The predominantly glass facade adds majorly to the ‘quality views’ criterion for LEED compliance.

The hoods that define the facade of the building are precast concrete units which are installed onto the building along with the curtain walls. The repositioning project also includes the renovation of the existing floor plans but does not impact the exterior facade of the existing building. The position of the building core is also changed to make it more convenient for multiple occupants. The building is under construction at present. A temporary Certificate of Occupancy has been received for the date of 01 October, 2020. Since it is a speculative office building for a tech client, the open floor plans give it enough flexibility to segregate the different levels based on the occupant.

COMBINING AND PROVIDING HEALTH SERVICES TO A REGION DEPRIVED OF MOST FACILITIES
PROJECT

This is a design for a healthcare facility in Neply, Haiti that combines the virtues of medical education and medical practice. It is proposed on a location which is currently a sugarcane field, remotely located in a village 20 miles away from Portau-Prince, the capital city of Haiti. The project is done in collaboration with an American NGO, ‘MyLifeSpeaks,’ that is committed to enhancing the growth and development in Haiti. L’Hôpital Universitaire de MyLifeSpeaks’ aims to bring to Neply the basic facilities of healthcare and higher education, both of which are currently inadequate to a population of approximately 90,000 people.

A farmers’ market enables all visitors to be able to explore and buy all the fresh produce from the vertical farms, and since it is all organically produced and hence extremely desirable, the market also doubles as a convention space at night and for special occasions. The market is also directly connected to the Javits Center, acting more as an extension of the gathering space. The exoskeleton that exists is built with concrete that absorbs pollutants from the air, thereby giving the feeling of purity to anyone who enters and also helping keep the complex clean and healthy.

The stand measures perfectly to be transported in standard containers. The main objective of the design is to make the entire structure ‘light-weight’ so as to encourage even youngsters to work in such settings, thereby providing vocational experience. The intentions of the stand are three-fold: -SELF-SUSTAINING -EDUCATIVE -EASILY OPERABLE FOR ALL AGE GROUPS

Above Sections reveal the carefully planned construction assembly of the walls and floors for both open and closed configurations. All moving parts close into the walls to ensure a flush appearance. While each wall is unique, Epicore contours the panels giving them strength and expressing the feeling of motion; unfolding. Hydraulic lifts assist in the opening and closure of the farm stand and allows for the kids to open or close the stand with minimal effort.

The main form-based concept for the farm stand is derived from a combination of origami and deconstruction. ‘Transparency’ is the aim of the stand in terms of its materiality as well as function so as to make it an educational experience for all customers, young and old alike. The structure is made of semi transparent polycarbonate panels to make it lightweight, and Epicore decking for its thin profile and versatility.
PORTFOLIO OF WORKS
Hydroponics systems are low maintenance walls that use water as a delivery system for nutrients in place of soil. The wall serves as a common learning tool for both students and farm stand visitors. The exterior of the farm stand is a flush surface, consistent throughout with plastic sheathing. This makes the surface water-tight. It opens up to the visitors everyday, each opened piece serving a different purpose.

WHY HALFWAY HOMES? Mental health disorders constitute approx. 14% of the global burden of disease. In India, the overall burden is 11.8%. Halfway Houses include group homes in the community with scheduled group activities and availability of treatment personnel at all times, to encourage independent living.
This encourages the patients to heal quicker due to the fact that they feel at home within these facilities, and the destigmatized environment makes them feel more comfortable going into the ‘outside’ world. NIKHITA BHAGWAT

3-DIMENSIONALIZING THE 2-DIMENSIONAL DEUX FEMMES AU BOARD DE LA MER Le Corbusier, 1968
PROJECT

The succeeding projects to be displayed are all various interpretations of the painting by the student, experimenting with different materials and thereby analyzing the changing forms. The final project is the form that is a compiled version of all the previous projects, based on the series of iterations in terms of the proportions between manual of machine labor, form and materiality. The model is now realized as a series of contours to gain a better understanding of the void spaces- the spaces which are later to house the 3D printed inlays. These contours give way to the analysis of solid and void forms in the final model. The product begins to describe the final form of the stock that is to hold parts of the model which have been modelled after the aforementioned 2-dimensional figures drawn by Le Corbusier.
