PROJECT VISION

The 74 Acre site has given us an ooportunity to re-imagine campus landscape , a place where all steudent and fuculty amenities come together and encourages to create a harmonious learning enc=vironment. The landscape proposed gives opportunity to do so by integrating outdoors and learning environment.

The primarily consist of 5 zones that is, the convention center, Academic block, the library, student hostel with vicinity and staff / faculty accomodation. The landscape proposed ties them together and rather than segregation allows a flow of movement from one zone to other.

" Be a Global Centre for Holistic Management Education on an integrated view of modern Management, spring ing from the priorities and aspirations of our nation today "

THE LIBRARY

The library forms the Spine connecting the Academic Block Phase I with Academic Block Phase II, providing grounds for Student Space, and endless possibility of Interaction.

The spatial configuration leading to the Library morphology is carefully analyzed to create maximum shading and generate a microclimate, thereby extending the outdoor usage periods. This helps in reducing built up area demand. Daylight analysis helped articulate the façade whilst ensuring optimal light penetration. Indoor gathering spaces have been located below ground and open to large earth-banked subterranean courtyards. The subterranean landscape areas are articulated with water features and seating spaces to enhance student use. The underbelly, derived from a traditional baoli, employs earth sheltering, thermal banking and evaporative cooling to modulate surrounding temperatures. Temperature and climate analy sis for this region shows that at a depth at the ground, equals the average temperature of the region

PRINCIPLES FOR SMART CITY

BUILD CITIES, NOT JUST PROJECTS

PLACE PEOPLE AND THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE CENTER ADOPT A LONG-TERM VISION & STRATEGY FRAMEWORK. LEVERAGE QUICK WINS:

LEVERAGE TOURISM TO DRIVE URBANITY AND CITY BUILDING, & GRASSROOT ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES

THE ABILITY TO IMPLEMENT THE VISION IS KEY. VISIONARY LEADERSHIP, AND STREAMLINED DECISION-MAKING ARE CRITICAL

CREATE A MOVEMENT AND NOT JUST A PROJECT :INVOLVE STAKEHOLDERS IN THE DESIGN & IMPLEMENTATION STAGE

THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY ADOPT A HOLISTIC APPROACH, LEVERAGE THE ECO-SYSTEM

THINK GREEN ON ALL LEVELS: SUSTAINABILITY MEASURES PROVIDE CITIES RESILIENCE TO FLOURISH IN THE LONG RUN.

PROMOTE PUBLIC HEALTH THROUGH CITY DESIGN & WALKABILITY & BALANCE MODES OF TRAVEL

The Central Event Plaza

Market Street Plaza has concrete cobblestone paving. The plaza has green fingers at rhythmic intervals as volumetric extensions of the paving pattern itself. The plaza design optimizes space utilization and helps to monetize. It allows free pedestrian movement, opportunities for kiosks and street vendors to cater to the walking masses of people, making it feel like an open-air market.

RIBANDAR SMART CITY DEVELOPMENT

PROJECT BRIEF

The Government of Goa has designated Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Limit ed(IPSCDL), a wholly owned Government Company and Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) of the Government of Goa State Level Nodal Agency and the State Mission Management Unit for Smart City Mission. IPSCDL has been formed to bring about the development of smart urban infrastructural facilities/projects for Panaji City.

LANDSCAPE CONCEPT

The physical character of any site, be it road network, plazas or ferry points, it is primar ily defined by its landscape design and amenities. The ideals that reflect the development of landscape works, road networks and junc tions as suggested under the Smart City Mission are:

1. Equitable distribution of Road Space for Pedestrians, Cycles and Cars.

2. Ensuring Safety for all and Universal access, considering design measures to achieve the same.

3. Landscape areas to enhance the visual experience of users. It should also be planned such as to reduce the urban heat island effect, by creating a more habitable micro-climate for users.

4. All existing trees are to be retained

5. The pause points or course change zones like Ferry points, plazas, bus stops, junc tions to be integrated in the overall design, the design should add value to the users by activating areas, ensuring safety and seamless mobility.

6. Appropriate lighting and signage should be designed ensuring no loss of visibility happens, as per recommendations of traffic and safety bodies.

Nazaara Deck

The location of the deck area gives it a close association and view of River Ganga and mountains surrounding it. Inherently becoming the priority and focal point of the design, hence, landscape spaces are designed for blending in the majestic context. The material used is locally procured, and the plants used are mostly low height and leafy as the area is susceptible to very high velocity of winds, making it suitable for such areas.

Materials & Seating Niches

The middle and major part of the area is kept open and flexible, with gan ga pebbles and blue kota stone flooring to imitate the river colour and textures. The permanent seating arrangement and pergola is confined to the corners, to keep the majestic view unhindered, yet giving a pleasant atmosphere to the user.

The seating niches are lined with grasses and are finished with kota and slate cladding. The slate is the most commonly found and sustainable material of Rishikesh. The cast-in-situ table has a cavity for creating a fire place for those famous winter evening of Rishikesh.

FARMS

A FARMHOUSE AT PATAUDI ROAD WAS GETTING USED AS A SITE FOR ORGANIC AND CATTLE FARMING. THE EXISTING BUNGALOWS’ EXTENSION ARE DESIGNED TO BE USED FOR ACCESS, GATHERINGS, STROLLING, PERCH AND BREEDING GROUNDS FOR BIODIVERSITY. THE SITE AIMS TO PROVIDE A HARMONIOUS ENVIRONMENT FOR USERS, BIRDS AND ANIMALS ALIKE.

Three Phase Development Strategy

Phase 01:

Phase 1 focuses on creating an arrival experi ence access to each of Bungalows’. The mounds are strategically designed to micromanage any surface runoff and prevent water logging. The old water fountain is turned into a natural eco system by creating a Koi pond and waterfall.

Phase 02:

Phase 2 works on creating an access for Organ ic farm and developing a Swimming Pool Area , Chabutara and Barbeque Station. This access path otherwise unused will work as valley park ing and Secondary access with a Fruit Tree grove.

Phase 03:

In Phase 3 new fruit orchards are devel oped and organized Organic Farming area to incorporate a Farm to Table ap proach for the Farm and future users.

Central Axial Pathway

The central pathway in natural stone and white pebbles cut through a meadow of tall grasses and mounds. The path has tropical plantation on both sides that accentuates the wind movement and creates a refreshing atmosphere.

The Banyan Tree Grove

A Ficus virens grove existing gave an opportunity to create a congregational space to sit and have breakfast The sturdy barks are used for hanging swings and hammocks to give a recreational niche.

TERRACE

TERRACE GARDEN - SUKHDEV VIHAR

PROJECT BRIEF

THE DESIGNED BUILDING CONSISTS OF VARIOUS KINDS OF OPEN AREAS SUCH AS ATRIUMS, BAL CONIES, TERRACES AND SERVICE AREAS. THESE AREAS PERCOLATE THE NATURAL ELEMENTS OF THE CONTEXT, PHYSICALLY AND VISUALLY.

THE INTENT IS TO INTRODUCE VACUUM AND GREEN AREAS WHICH COULD DOUBLE UP AS RECREATIONAL OR BUFFER ZONES.

THE PLANTING DESIGN AND MATERIAL PALETTE IS INSPIRED FROM THE MODERN, CONTEMPORARY STYLE OF THE BUILDING, AND ARE CHOSEN TO SUS TAIN THE CLIMATE AND CONTEXT OF THE BUILDING.
