SEMINAR OUTLINE
Play as the policy maker to solve the housing crisis.
SEMINAR Projecting 2037
The 2017 seminar series asked: What does is the future of the built environment?
2. Select policies to bring Shravan to his home.
3.
Urban India faces a severe housing shortage. Cities are short of 21.87 million houses. Of this, only 0.98 million of the shortage can be attributed to homelessness. The rest of the shortage is due to congestion, obsolescence, and non-durable housing. The distribution of this shortage among the different income brackets is also very telling. 88% of the shortage is of BPL and EWS units and 11.69% of the shortage is of LIG units, while the shortage in HIG and LIG units amounts to only 0.04% of the total housing shortage.
4.
Fail repeatedly, but learn a See the lot unexpected consequences of your policies on the flipboard.
In the 71 years of Indian governance this shortage has only risen, and steeply. What brought us here? What are the economic, political, social and geographic conditions that have brought us to this crisis? This seminar examines the myriad policies that have been executed over the years to alleviate the housing shortage, and attempts to understand why the housing crisis persists.

The future of housing inadequacy
NATIONAL HOUSING POLICY
RAJIV AWAS YOJANA (RAY)
This policy looked at land, materials, finance, technology, poverty alleviation as a comprehensive solution.
TWO MILLION HOUSING SCHEME - 1998
LIMITATIONS It was criticized for not being geared to alleviate the housing conditions of the poor.
The objective was to upgrade urban slums by providing physical amenities like water supply, sewer lines, electricity, etc. LIMITATIONS Projects lacked proper monitoring and supervision, resulting time-delays and misused funds.
adequacy Of the 21.87 million shortage, 1 million are homeless while the majority live in congested, obsolete and non-durable houses 2 mil.
SEMINAR Projecting 2037
The 2017 seminar series asked: What does is the future of the built environment?
LIMITATIONS It played only an advisory role and did not have a time-frame to achieve them.

NATIONAL SLUM DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
WHAT WE NEED BY 2O37:
16.92 0.04
Number of households (million) Housing shortage (million)
M.I.G. H.I.G.
A 21.78 mil. out of 21.81 mil. E.W.S. households are inadequately housed. Starkly, only 0.04 mil. out of 16.92 mil. M.I.G and H.I.G. households are inadequately housed.
Is there a path to a future where all Indian citizens are adequately housed? And more importantly, are we on it?
All large housing schemes including affordable housing to be regulated by State Bodies
There is no single window clearance yet in Real Estate Act, 2017, hence approvals will take time and be inefficient.
WHAT COULD WORK MAKING MORE LAND AVAILABLE Freeing up lands held by government bodies in urban areas for construction of affordable housing is essential. BUT, most govenment land being freed up is being used for commericial developments.
COST OF THE LAND Keeping the cost of land in check through market regulation will reduce housing cost. BUT, slow implementation of regulations has inflated prices in the past.
EDUCATION AND AWARENESS Auto-constructed redevelopments must be accompanied by awareness programmes that educate people about adequate light, ventiallation, fire safety, etc. BUT, no such awareness programmes are in place.
MANAGING DENSITIES INSTEAD OF F.A.R. Allowing increased ground coverages for affordable housing contruction allows low rise high density walk ups better suited to the lifestyles and budgets of the occupants. BUT, the government has responded by increasing F.A.R which inevitably leads to high rise towers.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AS AN INFRASTRUCTURE Affordable housing should be given infrastructure status, which will enable these projetcts to avail benefits like incentives, subsidies, tax benefits and institutional funding. BUT, slow implementation cripples even the most beneficial schemes.
IS IT REALLY GOING TO BE TWENTY YEARS OF NOTHING? Will the policies being currently implemented make a dent in the housing shortage? Most likely not. Particularly because the numbers are immense. But, these policies mark a shifting acknowledgement of and attempt to resolve the pressing housing crisis.

MODULAR DESIGN Origami Hyperbolic Paraboloid
The hyperbolic Paraboloid is a geometry that has inherent stability due to its parabolic and hyperbolic sections. This doubly curved surface is not developable.
VARIATIONS
Changing the rules for combining modules gives infinite variations. Parameters
However, origami allows us to create approximations of the hyperbolic paraboloid by alternating mountain and valley folds. TEMPLATE

FOLLY: ATRAXIA A Serene Ecstacy
A Folly or Folie, as Described by Bernard Tschumi is an architectural product with no purpose. The project brief required us to pick an emotion and create an experience with no function, and no other purpose than to manifest that emotion. I picked a serene kind of ecstacy, Atraxia.
The square entrance frames a view of barren trees through which you glimpse a black mirror-like shine. A shallow still stream of clear water guides your feet to an opening in the trees that leads beyond. You walk through and arrive at a large clearing with large, gleaming black spheres on a gently undulating landscape of beach wood. You approach one sphere, curiously. A door in the sphere slides open and you see, in the faint glow, the red fabric inside.

concept
“ Traditionally the Santhal have been using natural materials efficiently with minimum wastage. The hay that is left over after harvest is used as a binder in mud construction and thatch for roofs. The pots that are used to make rice beer are reused as pigeon holes in the walls in order to collect the pigeon droppings that can be used as manure.
SETTLEMENT STUDY Balipara, West Bengal
Balipara is a small Santhal village near Shantiniketan, West Bengal. Our second year setlement study took us to this idyllic village to study the patterns of growth, development, and culture of small scale settlements. In our short time there, we came to see it not just as another settlement to be studied, but as the home of the many Rohit Da’s and Borhan Da’s and Mintu’s and Tikku’s that welcomed us into their homes and hearts.
In this way it forms a closed ecosystem with everything that they use coming from the earth and coming full cycle and returning to the earth.’ - exerpts from publication of the class’ settlement study
DHARAMSHALA, BIRLA MANDIR New Delhi
Dharamshala: A hostel for pilgrims
By bringing all the public functions to the same level as the Mandirâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public functions and extending the park into the site as terraced green, the design adds value to the park and Mandir and establishes important circulation routes
The Birla Mandir is a towering landmark in Central Delhi. The Mandir brings devotees, tavelles and pilgrims to the Dharamshala attached to it. The project brief was to design a Dharamshala attached to and serving the Birla Mandir GROUND FLOOR PLANS
