Nitesh Salwan Design Portfolio
Architecture x Design Strategy
Hello. I am Nitesh Salwan, a Torontobased Architectural Designer and Design Strategist hailing from New Delhi. Over the last decade, I have gained and applied knowledge and skill sets in designing and developing spaces that facilitate a diversity of human activities; living, studying, working, socializing and mobility. I learnt that architecture is one discipline that impacts every aspect of life, and I have consistently striven to ensure my contribution to this impact remains a positive one. While most of my work experience has been in projects with a focus on architectural design, I’ve always been quite fascinated by the role that cities play in shaping human experiences, and more recently, how technology is shaping the way cities are developing now, and the way forward. The pursuit of these broader domains led me towards a postgraduate education in Interdisciplinary Design Strategy from the Institute without Boundaries(IwB) at George Brown College, Toronto. With a focus on Ethical Smart Cities as the core topic, the program has added the layers of design research, systems thinking, human-centered design and interdisciplinary collaboration onto my lens as an architectural designer. The very idea of seeing my efforts and capabilities induce a significant human value gives me an unparalleled sense of satisfaction, and I’d be glad to associate myself to an organization that gives me the opportunity to do so.

This design portfolio features select projects from my previous education and experience as an Architect, and recently completed education in Interdisciplinary Design Strategy. The intent of this portfolio is to present my experiences, learnings and capabilities across a breadth of creative disciplines, along with the skill sets applied and acquired in the process of completing these projects. The projects have been selected to portray my inclination towards how technology, sustainability and humancentered approach can guide how people get impacted by their built environments, and vice versa.

The Civil Court Interchange Station is the multi-modal transit hub for the upcoming Pune Metro Project. The station complex comprises of an interchange facility between 3 metro lines, OCC complex, office spaces, and a proposed commercial tower in the later phases of development. This project highlights the design and development work on the elevated line station and the master planning of site, undertaken by Enia as the Detailed Design Consultants for the project.
Project Background The Civil Court Metro Station is located at the intersection of the North-South Corridor and East-West corridor of the proposed Pune Metro Rail Project. The station has an interchange type configuration, and many passengers will change from one line to the other. This interchange will provide great utility and flexibility for the system as a whole, and it will decrease the time required for travel within the city. Concept design includes planning of the metro station including OCC and Metro offices above the station to be executed in Phase-1 as well as preparation of Master Plan keeping in mind Phase-2 property development and Phase-3 development of intermodal hub (connectivity with PMRDA line and Bus/ Feeder Stop) in the neighbouring plot and planned development of river front by Pune Municipal Corporation.

The Multimodal Interchange In earlier days, metro stations used to be a single-function edifice where passengers arrived and trains departed. It was simply a transport node. However, the 21st century is witnessing a new type of metro stations. The modern metro station has become a multi-functional space, integrating transport services with a multitude of other consumer services. It has become a place for shopping, entertainment, information, work, for rendez-vous, etc. It has become a lively illustration of exchanges, of intermodalities and of urbanity. It responds not only to the needs of passengers and commuters, but also to the local urban population. It has become an extension of public space, a piece of the city and an urban reference point.

Station Planning Criteria Interchange Programming Following important station planning criteria are considered in order to finalise the station design- Alignment and Rail Levels - Topographical Data - Land Plans (Current & Future) - Schedule of Dimensions - Evacuation Criteria & Calculations resulting in egress elements - Station & OCC Functional Program - Station Ticketing Requirements - Road Configuration / Traffic Master Plan - Flood Levels - PMRDA Line - Development Control Norms - Geotechnical Data Intersection of Rail Corridors
Phased Development
Patronage Flow
Civil Court Interchange Station is a multimodal hub where 3 different lines meet: MM UG line, MM Elevated line, and elevated PMRDA Line 3.
Phase 1 : Interchange (Elevated) Metro Station + Operational Control Centre Phase 2 : G+30 storey commercial tower + floating convention centre block Phase 3 : Multi-modal interchange facility + connection to Line 3.
Position of station block determined by corridor alignment. Site circulation design guided by passenger flow. Pedestrian movement provided from all corners of the site. Vehicular movement minimised to facilitate central plaza.
Evacuation Calculations One of the most important guidelines to be followed for the station design were the NFPA 130, which guide the fire eggress calculations in station buildings, and determine the widths and number of passenger exits, ultimately impacting the layout, planning and built envelope of the station building. The following tables show the criteria adopted as well as the calculations for designing the station. 10

ITO Skywalk, New Delhi / Design Competition Public Architecture x Urban Strategy
Project Year: 2015 Author(s): Copyright Chaukor Studio; Nitesh Salwan, Nilesh Bansal, Tejeshwi Bansal, Shubhi Aggarwal Role: Form concept of FOB, development of variable envelope, 3d modeling and rendering, graphic presentation.
16
The ITO Skywalk was a design competition floated by the Delhi government in 2015 to propose innovative and sustainable solutions to strengthen pedestrian safety at the W-Junction of Pragati Maidan Metro Station, New Delhi. This project highlights the design proposal by Noida based Chaukor Studio where I was employed as Junior Architect at that time.
Project Background The development of various public transport modes in the metropolitan city of Delhi like railway line, Delhi metro, bus stops and auto-rickshaw stands has increased the number of pedestrians on the roads. Due to lack of proper walking space for the pedestrians on most of the major road junctions in the city, the intersection of the vehicular traffic with the pedestrians causes a call for alarm towards the safety of the people. Pragati Maidan is amongst the prominent landmarks in the immediate context of the proposed site. The bamboo space frame resembles the inherent structure of the Hall of Nations in Pragati Maidan extending the formal design language of the context. The FOB deck is placed alongside the metro track and also beneath it (at the point where the clear head height of 5.5m is attained). By placing the FOB deck along the track, the existing skyline remains unchanged. Context Plan (NTS) Proposed FOB’s integration with the existing public transport systems and pedestrian movement around the site. Physical infrastructure

Contextual Features Around The W-Junction Intercrossing : Pedestrians & Vehicular Traffic
Pedestrian Movement Pattern
Vehicular Movement Pattern
Intersections– Pedestrian & Vehicular
The W – junction at ITO is currently used by a large volume of pedestrians and vehicular traffic. Various intersections are created between the two creating dangerous junctions. Furthermore; public transport modes like Railway line , Delhi Metro, Bus stops and Auto-Rickshaw stands add to the existing chaos and congestion and further compromise the safety of the pedestrians.
Thousands of people and cars struggle to cross the W-junction at ITO every day to reach to their respective offices. The intercrossings of these large volumes , posseses grave threat to the lives of pedestrians croosing their way at this junction.
Thus, there is a critical need to segregate the pedestrian movement from the vehicular. At the same time, interlinking of various nodes is required to maintain and reinforce the existing movement patterns.
Existing Connections
F.O.B.
Green Urban Nodes
Interconnectivity
Connectivity, Integration and Accessibility Existing connectivity and greens are utilized , and the FOB just acts as an extension with these existing connections to integrate the overall pedestrian movement pattern and experience. Urban plazas / green nodes are envisined to achnor the most dense junctions.
The existing zebra crossings are to act as additions to the FOB rather than alternate route.
Public plazas are integrated at high traffic nodes to provide anchoring points to the movement pattern along the W -Junction.
The FOB provides for easy accessibilty to the fartherst and the most utlizied pedestrian routes.
The overlap of connectivity at various levels leads to a highly intergrated system for pedestrian movement. 19
Layout Plan
Public Node 1 : College lane The college lane is an important junction leading to Tilak Bridge Railway station. It experiences large number of pedestrians everyday, and many informal shops have come up along this lane . Public plaza is carved out of the exiting land being utilized by the public toilet and by shifting the vehicular entry gate of the college lane backwards. This creates an open zone which enables free pedestrian movement, provides spaces for pedestrians to sit under shade, integrates informal shops and provides for facilities like public toilets.
20
It also provides necessary buffer from vehicular traffic at the entry points of the FOB. It also contains utilities and kiosks which provide both safety and dynamism to the pedestrian nodes.
Public Node 2 : Metro Station Metro has become the lifeline for public transport. The path leading to the Pragati Maidan Metro station is uncomfortable due to irregular pathways, informal kiosks and haphazard Auto-rickshaws stands. The public plaza is thus created to integrate spaces for pedestrians to move to the metro station in a pleasant way. The plaza utilizes the Metro structure to provide shade, integrate kiosks and add other facilities in a formal manner along the direction of existing movement patterns. Another intervention is made to create service lane for auto-rickshaw pickups which leads to decongestion of common pedestrian areas. 21
Form Manifestation Construction Methodology
1
The frame is designed on the concept of fractal geometry in which a given module is replicated at various scales to reach the overall form. This provides with high visual complexity while enabling ease in construction. In this case; the fractal module used is a tetrahedron. 1. Reinforcing Metro The existing metro pillars are identified as a potential anchor point for erecting the FOB structure at the W-Junction.
2
2. Steel Columns Steel columns are provided around the metro columns. These pre-fabricated steel columns act as the main structural support for the FOB. 3. Bamboo Frame A modular bamboo space frame is fixed onto these steel columns. These support members transfer the load of the FOB evenly onto the steel columns.
3
4
5 22
4. Modular Deck A modular system consisting of base , side frame and roofing structure is then conjoined together and anchored onto the bamboo frame structure. 5. Urban Greens The designed structure provides a potential canvas for growing vertical greens on the FOB, further integrating it with the landscape around.
Design Characteristics Modular Design The design of the FOB is module based and can be replicated using the same structural module at various places. The modular design thus provides with ease of construction and flexibility as off-site production is possible and can then be transported and assembled on site in very less time. Â The main deck of the FOB is supported on a tetrahedron based space frame structure made from a combination of linear bamboo members and metal joints. The space frame allows for efficient structural design as the loads are uniformly transferred. The deck is made from harmonic modules of tensile fabric and bamboo thus making the overall structure light weight and cost efficient.
With such modularity, the design becomes replicable and scalable and creates numerous possibilities of placing similar FOBs and skywalks around the city along with the existing metro lines, flyover as per specific site conditions.
Safe and Sustainable Design
Solar Panels allow for energy efficiency of the design.
Dedicated space for Advertising Panels makes it possible to generate revenues for operational costs.
A see-through facade and illuminated ceiling ensures that women, children and the elderly feel safe while using the Deck.

Playroom.TO is a multi sensorial and interactive exhibition that explores the benefits and risks associated with smart city interventions to promote a shared understanding of how the integration of technology in the fabric of cities might transform human experiences and values. This exhibition was part of the annual DesignTO festival held in Toronto in February 2020 and also won DesignTO’s Juror’s Choice Award for Community Wellbeing.
Project Background An Ethical Smart City has at its centre an engaged & diverse community of dwellers, whose values are represented in the city. The city’s open, transparent, and collaborative systems are intentionally placed to create a sustainable framework for communities to contribute and thrive.
Throughout 2019-20, the Institute without Boundaries(IwB) is in the process of exploring and evaluating the evolution of Smart Cities both nationally and globally in order to contribute to the creation of cities that are smart, ethical, inclusive and sustainable.
•
For the 2020 DesignTO Festival, the Interdisciplinary Design Strategy (IDS) students at the IwB showcased their research insights and scenarios on Ethical Smart Cities through an interactive, multimedia exhibition.
•
The exhibition proposes the stance that cities need ethics to conquer their challenges and evolve into Ethical Smart Cities. Accordingly, PlayroomTO explores the possibilities of how cities can move from a smart city to an Ethical Smart City.
28
• • •
This multi sensorial and interactive exhibition will explore the benefits and risks associated with Smart City interventions to promote a shared understanding of how the integration of technology in the fabric of cities might transform human experiences and values. The exhibition also invites people to expand their thinking about values, ethics and the future in a smart city such as Toronto. The exhibit allows visitors to understand how an Ethical Smart City develops with values, technology and challenges. Playroom.TO allows visitors to have an input on how they think Toronto’s major challenges should be solved. Playroom.TO is a fun space that pushes the necessity of ethics in the evolution of Toronto.
Design Concept and Strategy Using the ESC Framework, an ethical smart city can be created by applying technology to solve global challenges through a values-based approach.
•
At the second interaction, you will learn about technologies that will prepare you to solve the challenge Toronto needs you to solve for it!
• • •
•
At the final interaction, you will play a game of roulette, which will give you a challenge that Toronto is facing right now.
•
Using the ethical values you have chosen and the most appropriate technology for the challenge at hand, propose a solution and draw it in the space provided on your card.
•
Finally, share this card up on the “What’s Your Move” wall in the final area of the exhibit.

Visual Design Guidelines The visual design language for Playroom. TO took form as an outcome of constant iteration and experimentation, letting the design determine the choice of materials and vice versa. A few key elements emerged out as the common binding elements that weaved together the various elements and artefacts within the exhibit.
•
The dotted grid which appears on all promotional as well as digital assets was inspired from the peg boards that were used to put up the filled game cards at the end of the exhibit.
•
The visual aesthetic also follows a 3-speed formula for the text and is complimented with the use of just three colours: yellow, black and white.
•
The shape of a circle was used to further visually bind the various elements together. The stickers, the pegs and the roulette wheel exhibit this design language.
•
A yellow underline was used to highlight important text elements and headings in boith physical and digital interface.
•
The elongated text on the wall that reads ‘Ethical Smart City’ is a custom designed font and it appears on all of the promotional assets as well.

Physical Design Elements: Information Panels The information panels were made out of square panels of printed sheets pasted onto foamcore board. The panels were to be put up against the black ESC text on the curved white wall, so they were made in yellow with black text and the custom designed icons.
33
Physical Design Elements: Stickers and Game Cards
As part of the interactive element of the exhibiton, the Stickers and Game Cards were meant to let the audience engage and provide their feedback and opinions. Stickers were designed for each of the 7 Ethical Values, Smart Technologies and City Challenges which were placed along with the information panels on the curved wall. The front side of the game cards has space to put the stickers chosen in the previous steps and a space to either write or draw the ideas.

Upcycling of Mukesh Mills, Mumbai / Undergraduate Design Thesis Architecture x Adaptive Reuse
Project Year: 2014 Author(s): Self
Carried out over a period of five months as the Design Thesis for the B.Arch degree, this project explores adaptive re-use of abandoned textile mill sites that act as urban voids in Mumbai, a city with the second highest population density in the world, and being the country’s financial capital and home to the entertainment industry. This project was shortlisted among the Top 10 entries for the Best Thesis of the Year award at the Annual Convention 2015 of National Association of Students of Architecture.

History of Mills in Mumbai Girangaon (literally “mill village”) was a name commonly used to refer to an area now part of central Mumbai, which at one point of time had almost 130 mills, with the majority being cotton mills. Girangaon covered an area of 600 acres (2.4 sqkm), not including the workers’ housing. Famous mill locations are Lower Parel, Parel, Lalbaug and Byculla.
44

The Great Bombay Textile Strike In 1982 about 2.5 lakh mill workers from more than 80 textile mills went on strike against the ‘Bombay Mill Owners Association’ demanding wage increase and bonus. After a prolonged and destabilizing confrontation, the strike collapsed with no concessions having been obtained for the workers. The closure of textile mills across the city left tens of thousands of mill workers unemployed and, in the succeeding years, most of the industry moved away from Bombay after decades of being plagued by rising costs and union militancy. The majority of the over 80 mills in Central Bombay closed during and after the strike.
Present State of Mills At present day, the long-abandoned textile mills of Mumbai show every sign of dereliction. Empty contaminated compounds, rusting old machinery, collapsing walls, ceilings and roofing, fading facades, broken fenestrations, all demonstrate how the neglect of such industrial marvels has taken a toll on these mills that once used to define the very character of the city.

Remnants of Shakti Mills.
Redevelopment of Mill Lands The redevelopment of Mumbai’s cotton mills began in 1992, when most of the mills were bulldozed to pave way for high rise commercial and residential projects. In recent years, the mills have been extensively redeveloped, many becoming malls and discotheques. Phoenix Mills, Parel was converted into a luxury mall. There are some conservation efforts underway to preserve the old mills as museums. Such a museum was opened at the United Mills in Lalbaug.

City Background Mumbai, also known as Bombay, is the capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra. Along with the urban areas including the cities of Navi Mumbai, Thane, Bhiwandi and Kalyan, it is one of the most populous urban regions in the world. The name for the city is derived from ‘Mumba’ or ‘Maha-Amba’ – the name of the Koli goddess Mumbadevi and Aai(or mother) in the Marathi language. A cosmopolitan metropolis, Mumbai was originally a conglomeration of seven islands on the Konkan coastline which over time were joined to form the island city of Bombay. The island was then later joined with the neighb ouring island of Salsette to form Greater Bombay. Area: 603 SqKm Elevation: 14 metres(avg) City Population: 12, 478, 447 City Density: 20,694/SqKm

Scarcity of Open/Public Spaces The city of Mumbai has the least amount of open spaces by conventional standards. Greater Mumbai can claim to have the lowest per capita open space in the world at almost 0.03 acres per 1000 population.
Heritage Value Of Mill Structures The text mills in Mumbai date back to the 19th century, even before many significant monuments in th city were constructed. Naturally, they reflect the culture and architectural heritage of the city that Bombay was.
Need Of The Project Potential Possessed By Mill Lands The textile mills occupy a total of 6000 acres altogether in the city of Mumbai. Many of these mills are now abandoned, and the land on which they sit are nothing more than vague voids in the urban fabric.
Comparison of open spaces between Mumbai and other major cities in India and around the world
Why Upcycling? - Upcycling abandoned and derelict parcels of land provides for better utilization of the otherwise useless voids that generate in an urban setting over time. - Helps generate public open spaces in a dense urban fabric. - Helps preserve the cultural identity associated with the buildings. - Provides for the possibility to restore and conserve structures of heritage importance or other cultural relevance. - Ensures a sustainable and costeffective development by reducing the overall embodied energy involved in construction process. 45
Site Context
Ward A existing land use plan.
Existing land use plan around the site.
The city of Mumbai is divided into 23 administrative wards for the purpose of local administration. Ward A is the southernmost ward of the city and covers the oldest development of Mumbai. Area: 12.5 SqKm Population: 2.1 Lacs (Approx) Areas covered in the ward are Fort, Churchgate and Colaba, and it is also home to the prime Central Business District of the city, with a daily floating population of around 40 lacs. There is a Central Railway Station terminus for both local and outstation trains at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus and Western Railways local terminus at Churchgate.
46
Colaba being the southernmost tip of the city is majorly occupied by multistorey towers having residences for the Indian Navy officers, as well as establishments of defence importance. There are also three squatter settlements, namely Ambedkar Nagar, Machhimaar Nagar and Sundar Nagri. Colaba comprises mostly of residential land use. The site chosen is the only industrial land use site in Colaba as well as in Ward A.
Figure ground, green cover and water bodies around the site.
The site has in its vicinity a well established network of social and physical infrastructure. It is connected to the local railway network accessible by road via Colaba Causeway.
Regular connectivity of bus transit system allows easy accessibility to the site from any part of the city. Mumbai’s most popular tourist destination, the Gateway of India is 1km from the site.

Site Introduction Mukesh Mills, one of the few mills in southern Mumbai, and the only one in Colaba, was also a victim of the Great Bombay Textile Strike. The mill has been defunct for nearly three decades, and presently, has nothing more to offer than a backdrop for dramatic movie sequences. An approximately 10 acre site, located on Narayan A Sawant Road in the southern part of Colaba, Mumbai. Once a flourishing textile mill, is now shut for endless years in dispute, withered, barren, dilapidated. The British had set up this mill in 1870s. It was the only mill in South Bombay at that time.
J A
The site is sandwiched between residential complexes and the Arabian sea about one axis, and the Sassoon Docks and INS Shikra along the other. The Sassoon Docks is one of the oldest docks in Mumbai, originally used as the main node for trade activities in the city both inwards and outwards, and is today one of largest fish markets in the city. INS Shikara is a naval air station at Colaba. Site Area: 9.8 Acre(39,675 SQM) Ground Coverage: 13,398 SQM = 33.7%

Design Concept The design proposal for the upcycling of the mill seeks to augment the identity of the mill structures that have a very strong industrial architectural character of their own. The design interpretation has been carried out such that all the distinct structures, each catering to a different reuse collectively help generate a coherent micro-environment. The re-uses are proposed in response to the identity that the mill had developed since the time textile manufacturing discontinued and the site started to be used as a venue for film shooting. Also, the social and cultural fabric of Mumbai and of the site’s local context directed towards the development of un urban square that is capable of playing host to a plethora of functions within the same premises.
Transition of Architectural Character The conservation and structural retrofitting measures considered for the retained structures focus on creating new spaces that serve the reuse proposed. The node or the intersection of the two already existing N-S axes and the newly created E-W axis behaves as the heart of the site as it consists of the street level food court and the plaza. Also, this zone has the most prominent identity of the mill i.e. the chimney. Visual linkage to the sea is enhanced by the generation of the OAT between the two new blocks proposed.
As we move from left to right along the newly generated OAT, the transformation in architectural character proceeds gradually from minor changes like replacement of wooden doors and window frames to aluminium and introducing skylights in roofing, to adding new walls and partitions to create enclosures for creative artits’ studios. The major transition takes place in the form of materials of construction and that too via the smaller volumes of earlier connecting blocks. The new blocks reflect the architectural vocabulary of the one that existed on the site in terms of wall-to-window width proportion and the ridged silhouette.

The Institute without Boundaries’ (IwB) year-long investigation of the Ethical Smart City concept will be summarized and shared via an online resource to take the conversation forward to the rest of Canada and the world. In preparation for the upcoming Launch Event, the online resource will contain mixed media content comprising of insights, findings, and results.
Project Brief The Ethical Smart City project will live on www.ethicalsmartcity.com. The website will be the future home for the ESC project insights, framework and tools, so communities can find inspiration and begin their journey towards ethical smart city transformation. Designed page by page, this custom-built site will be an integrated design and will be clean, simple, and responsive, suitable for mobile, tablet and desktop browsing.
Small and medium-sized municipalities in Canada are transforming into smart cities of tomorrow, and it is necessary to ensure that they consider ethics and values before and during their transformation. The smart city leaders and decisionmakers in these communities are eager to harness any opportunity they can to begin their journey of becoming an Ethical Smart City. This presents an opportunity for the 2019-20 cohort of
the IDS program at the IwB to provide these leaders with a value-based framework that they can use as a guide to implement smart city initiatives within their municipalities. This can be done by condensing the collective research, insights and design knowledge accumulated over the course of the program into a digital resource that is user-friendly and can be accessed across multiple platforms and media.

Rings of Reverence / National War Memorial, Delhi Memorial Design x Landscape Design
Project Year: 2016 Author(s): Copyright ZJZ Design Studio; Nitesh Salwan, Zia Jahan Zeb, Vedant Rana, Mohd Atif Role: Concept philosophy, 3d modeling and rendering, development of design assets.

This design project was the response to a global competition to propose the National War Memorial around the existing Chhatri at India Gate, New Delhi. The memorial was to feature the names of Indian soldiers martyred in India’s post-independence wars inscribed on a wall, be entirely below the natural ground level and also be in harmony with the Indo-Saracenic architectural style of the Central Vista.
Project Background
“All that they had they gave; and they shall not return, For these are those that have no grave where any heart may mourn.�
82
We, leading our lifes with all high spirit and peace owe it to those fearless men who guard us every day of all seasons. They put everything at stake when it comes to protecting our motherland. So we feel immense honour to acknowledge their endevours, by constructing a memorial on their names which is not only for us to remember them, but also for those who come after us.
The proposal for the National War Memorial shapes itself as a direct interpretation of the chronology of war scenario where spaces seem to narrate the sentiments of various stages of war.
Design Concept: Rings of Reverence The design of the memorial, which is predominantly a landscaping intervention by nature, manifests as concentric ‘Rings of Reverence’, where each ring symbolises a phase of war and the time that follows. The entire design has been carefully schemed out to effortlessly weave together a multitude of tangible and intangible experiences that amalgamate to present a display of congruity within the site as well as with the strong surrounding context.
Ring 1 __ Ring of Resonance Symbolises the situation at battle front where our armed forces stood tall against the enemies with their voices and spirits all resonating together in unison to protect their motherland. Ring 2 __ Ring of Repentance Symbolises the phase that follows immediately after the battle is over where a deep remorse is felt for the heroes that sacrificed their existence whilst protecting their nation. Ring 3 __ Ring of Reticence The most introverted ring out of all since it symbolises the stillness that prevails within the spirits of one and all as we silently mourn the loss of our beloved ones in the battle.
Ring 4 __ Ring of Reminiscence Encompasses within itself the collective sentiments of the families of martrys who feel great sense of pride upon the remembrance of ‘their’ war heroes and at the same time are in deep sorrow for they have lost their beloved ones. Ring 5 __ Ring of Refulgence The furthermost ring of the memorial that intends to establish the souls of our martyrs as stars that will kep shining brightly within our hearts for they sacrificed for the country and us not only their own lives, but also the cheers of the ones connected to them.

A stream of shallow water that appears to continue down from the Chhatri precint and falls into a collection pond or ‘Shraddhanjali Kund’ formulates the Ring of Resonance, where the sound of the falling water shall act as a metaphor for the resonating spirits of the soldiers during wars. The falling water also acts as an element of tribute to the martyrs.
Patrons strolling on the space around the Kund which falls on the Ring of Repentance will be able to observe an expansive view all the way to the Chhatri and beyond to India Gate which shall develop a feeling of introspection as to why there is war in the first place and how much loss has already been caused to human life. 86
The Ring of Reticence is the most neutral and introverted space in the memorial as it portraqys the stillness and numbness after the wars. THe avenues that are sandwiched between a minimal landscape of shrubs, plants and trees merge towards a larger congregational space which may be used for holding memorial ceremonies.
The Ring of Reminiscence holds three exclusive courts that shall be used to make absorbing experiential installations such as art murals, statues, fascias etc. The Commemorative Wall is a point of emotional outpour for the patrons. Some occasions might also witness visitors paying tribute to the martyrs by lighting candles and lamps near the wall ledge. 87

The Eden Park project explores the balance between nature and humanity. The project entails taking advantage of existing wetlands in Simcoe County by redirecting excess water and using it to create awareness of wetland ecosystems and elevate the health quotient of the community.
Project Background Climate change has had a significant effect on Lake Simcoe’s watershed over the past decade. While flooding used to occur mostly during spring, the effects of climate change are evident now as it floods even in the winter months. The main causes for the floods are development in low-lying areas, surface runoff and the saturation of municipal drains during weather events. One of the most adversely affected areas in the county is the Belle Ewart area in the municipality of Innisfil, located in a low-lying zone along the south-western shore of Lake Simcoe. Even though the municipality takes several measures for recovery and relief every year, the residents need an effective solution to their problems. Project Scope This design proposal will focus on the Belle Ewart area in the municipality of Innisfil, located in a low-lying zone along the south-western shore of Lake Simcoe. Location Simcoe County, located just north of the Greater Toronto Area, stretches from the shores of Lake Simcoe on the east to Georgian Bay in the west. The county covers 4,860 km2 and supports approximately 300,000 residents. Simcoe’s economy is based on agriculture, natural resource extraction and tourism. Vision To harness the potential of natural resources and systems to reduce flooding in watershed areas, increase safety and improve health conditions in the County of Simcoe. Mission To develop a sustainable pilot project by using green infrastructure and technology that reduces flooding in the Lake Simcoe watershed area, while engaging stakeholders in promoting the benefits of natural systems. 92

A Systemic Approach
Flood Prevention Strategy Wetlands are an important element of a watershed as they can reduce flooding by holding water, filter harmful elements in the water, and provide habitat to diverse species of wildlife. Flooding issues in the Belle Ewart neighbourhood of Innisfil can be mitigated with the help of smart technology combined with green infrastructure. To complete the flow of water, the excess water will be channeled into the Little Cedar Creek which flows into Lake Simcoe.
Schematic Plan showing existing problem: Bellw Aire Creek with excess water during ice melt and rainfall flooding the residential areas of Belle Ewart neighbourhood.
Schematic Plan showing flood prevention strategy; redirection of excess water from Belle Aire Creek into an existing wetland which is then utilized for developing a park and then channelized into Little Cedar Creek to flow into Lake Simcoe. 93
Design Solution : Eden Park The Eden Park project explores how taking a nature-oriented approach can lead to sustainable solutions. It aims to re-establish the balance between nature and human activities through elements such as walking trails, marshes, puddle ponds, community gathering spaces and farmers’ markets. Eden Park is planned as a low-impact development. Porous and sustainable materials will be used to develop the built structures of the
project and all existing tree covers will be retained. A key component of Eden Park is to create a sense of safety and well-being through therapeutic healing, meditation and yoga facilities. Sculptures equipped with IoT sensors will collect microclimate data, while sound boxes spread throughout the park will record the sounds of the park and transmit a live audio stream to mobile devices.

The Eden Park project proposes the establishment of a balance between nature and humanity. The project entails taking advantage of existing wetlands in Simcoe county by redirecting excess water. This excess water, from areas like Belle Ewart, will be used to create awareness of wetland ecosystems and elevate the health quotient of the community. This will be done by designing the park as an extension of
the wetland systems – creating marshes, puddle ponds, and habitats for flora and fauna. The community can experience wetlands systems, by indulging in the various activities available in the park or simply exploring the trails. Eden Park helps educate the population about flooding prevention and instills a sense of safety in the community. The proposed park will connect the community closer to the wetland ecosystem to help foster
an appreciation of nature and the wetlands. Eden Park’s facilities and programming is meant to promote healthy lifestyles and well-being through therapeutic services, walking trails and community gathering spaces. Smart sensors and IoT systems weave the various elements together in a co-existing natural and technological environment.
