“Traditional architecture is not concerned with historical styles, but with historical principles.”
suistainable & heuristic method
- Lucein Steil (Tradition and Architecture) Design Intent: The design concept adopts architectural approach thats creates an outdoor spatial quality conducive to interactive place making. Successfully implemenating this approach of an outdoor responsive architecture relies as much on the created space on the attributtes to the organizations scales and texture. The pursuit of the social ‘publicness’ and interactive quality also define architecture of our buildings. Corridoor become ‘streets of comfort’ which induced airflow and roof tops draw from cultural traditions to become meeting spaces or spaces for quiets reflections. Buildinds, buildings elements, compenents and treatments are climate responsive and yet orchestrate the creation of public spaces as outdoor rooms.

a. Hostel (girls & boys) b. married student hostel c. mess Design Intent: The intent has been to create and encourage permeability through the developement with a clear hierarchy between semi- public and private space. Spontaneous circulation has been created at elevated level at second floor. These elevated links have the potenial to connect to common amenities related to student housing. Considering the typical day in a season for each - hot & dry, hot& humid and cool type, we can determine appropriate strategies for the same. Though calculations and simulation the change in outdoor and indoor temperature. can be estimated to guage comfort span for the occupants. The earth being at a higher temperature than ambient air warms the water in the underground tank which transfers thid heat to the rooms above. Windows are kept closed to preseve heat. Lower sun altitude ensures solar penetration int the rooms warming them. Thick insulated walls help in retaining heat in the envelope. The roof surface is shaded by the solar panels which reduces solar gain considerably. Both shutters of the windows are opened out to increase air changes per hour. Warm air can also be let out through the vents opening into the corridoor. The wind catchers on the roof sucks in air which is let down through a duct in the basement. A mist spray introduces moisture into the air cooling it down to a more comfortable temp. The ground water tank acts as a heat sink and cools the ground level room. Shading prevents solar exposure of the facade. Only the jaali shutter is opened. The planning grid and size of the rooms has been establish to simplify construction drawing stage. The layout of the rooms provides adqueate privacy even with door left open. The location and design of the wall openings are derived to achieve comfortable ventilation and temperature in the room throughout the year. The need for further flexibility should be accomdated in un-built plot as ‘provisional’ arrangementon built structure can be potential nuisance for the scholar during the expansion stage

The architectural design takes this concept to another evolving a typology that consist of splits level units which have its own private terrace. Keeping in mind the requirement of barrier unit access some unit have not split level. Each building comprises of three units that are stacked in various combinations to create ‘aangan’ courtyard at different levels through which one enters the apartment. The study in each apartment is segregated from rest of the living spaces giving allowing students or vistors of the faculty membersto enter the study without disturbing the privacy of other resident. The character of vernacular jodhpur architecture is incorparated in the form of details like contemporary jharokas, jaalis and staircase leading to mumty. Wind catchers that draw wind from courtyard into the apartments are used to cool apartments. Buildings are arranged to from a courtyards. The hierachy of courtyards range from permable spaces that are shared by four buildings and are part of circulation, to more intimate courtyards that are shared by two buildings. The overall massing of the building encourage social interaction within the community without comprising on the privacy of the residents.

Orientation of Site : - On account of the L- shape of the site boundary, the workshop building is proposed to be constructed in phases with its longer side facing East West direction. As steel centre is proposed to be constructed in the place of existing S1 workshop, the building is North-south oriented. Facade & Fenestration: - Keeping workshop area under consideration linear long slit windows have been proposed to facilitate proper light and ventilation. The entire facade has been provided a staggered profile considering future expansion. - Through & through Horizontal glazing is proposed to facilitate proper light and ventilation for the steel centre keeping in mind the activities proposed to be housed. Site Levels: The site has hardly any level difference which can minimize cutting and filling work thereby reducing cost. Trees & Landscaping: Existing vegetation will be preserved by means of non-disturbance or damage to the trees and other form of vegetation. Access: The nearest approach to the site is through the market gate As per the insulation and shadow analysis the building is exposed to varying heat during the working hours (11am-5pm). As per analysis the covered areas such as pedestrian pathways are cooler compared to directly exposed surfaces. The site demands a basic landscape element, so as to act as shading devices. The terrace have been treated as green roof so as to keep the building cooler and enhance the look.

reinventing dharavi
1. Introducing Dharavi
mumbaii, india
What is Dharavi for Mumbai? Dharavi is a settlement that started with 60,000 low income people, to around a million now. The Population Density of Dharavi is considered to be amongst the highest density in the world. Dharavi – a 225 hectare land strives to grow and sustain day by day. It is currently a multi-religious, multiethnic, diverse settlement. Flanked by possitives at all sides llike BKC, Mahim Railway Station, TATA power station, BEST Depot & Sion railway station, Dharavi has not been able to break the stigma of being called a SLUM. Attracting many opportunities for the Government & Developers, Dharavi has many times come under the Dharavi Redevelopment plan which has failed to restore their livelihood and desire Location of Dharavi to stay in a proper habitable residential zone. 2. Theoritical Framework
FIRM NAME : ratan j bataliboi pvt. ltd. TYPE : architecture competition area : 225 acres
‘Reinventing Dharavi: An Ideas Competition’ is about generating essentially new ideas, concepts and interventions for integration of urban uses – affordable housing, livelihoods, health and sanitation, recreation, education, urban design and urban planning, social and cultural activities, environment, governance, economics, amongst others in a sustainable manner. The objective is to initiate an on-going dialogue on the critical issues and spread the ideas contributed by the participants, world-wide among the concerned authorities, organisations and peoples. With open access it will be possible to influence the future directions towards our cherished aims.
Dharavi lies in center of Mumbai with excellent connectivity to South Mumbai & Suburbs. It has an easy access to all modes of transport at macro level. But at micro level, due to the urban fabric and the mixed use culture 80% of the inhabitants commute by foot.
Existing Fabric of Dharavi
Critiquing policies - its failures Lot many policies came got applied and failed. Then initiaties were taken to amend these policies and put into practice which could benefit both Slums and the government. First National Housing Policy was formulated in 1988. Gradually with change in the Government in 1990; a new National Housing Policy with little additions was announced in August, 1994. Further, new National Housing & Habitat Policy announced in July, 1998, with some landmark initiatives like involvement of multi-stakeholders. This was done mainly to repeal the Urban Land Ceiling Act, permitting Foreign Direct Investment in housing and real estate sector, etc.
Dharavi is surrounded by buffers, such as Mahim Nature Park, Mahim Creek, High tension line, Railway zone etc, which in a way gives it a distinct identity irrespective of it being a low lying area. Dharavi though being a deprived area has an active informal economic sector of numerous small scale enterprises employing many dwellers. Dharavi’s annual turnover has been considered to be US$500 million and above. Various goods such as Leather, textiles, pottery etc. are exported all over the world. As, all these policies were generic and applicable to both rural and urban areas, a need to take into account, the With increasing migration rate, economic opportunities emerging challenges for the required shelter along with and Lack of affordability has lead people to reside as illegal the growth of the slums. Then, the first ever National Urban hut men. Therefore, only building a shanty was the concern. Housing and Habitat Policy specific to urban areas was Being one of the contributors to Mumbai’s economy, Dharavi announced in December 2007. fails in public health due to the absence of sanitation & clean drinking water facility. The common loop hole seen in the entire range of policies As per 2006 records, there was only one toilet per 1,440 residents in Dharavi. Dharavi has a huge list of epidemics & natural disaster with significant loss of lives. Since years, there have not been any major improvements in the overall situation of Dharavi; instead diseases, illness, fires & other disasters have become very common.
was plotted development, higher FSI & high rises. None of the policies intervened into the social livlihood, their respective occupation etc. The focus was majorly laid on the residential component and not on the existing character of the slum. These policies failed in re-imaging the live- work – play model of these slums which went missing & failed in stacking up the units in G + 7, G + 15 structures.
Critical Questions: 1. Is redevelopment the only solution? 2. Why is Residential component the only aspect considered in redevelopment? 3. Why is stacking up of people in high rise the only solution? 4. Can we house the entire Population? If Yes, how to sustain & balance the livelihood with redevelopment? 5. Why can’t all the components prevailing in Dharavi such as Industrial, R + C , Home based Industrial typology be considered together in DRP? 6. Does is have to be a Developer approach always?

Industries
The bakery is a large, partially underground room split into four sections: one area to knead the flour, other to roll it, the next one to mould it into shape, and the last has a large oven to bake.They posses a separate area to store the raw materials.
Gold is kept in small earthenware pots which are then placed in a small opening above the fire. Once the gold melts it is mad into nuggets & weighed. The entire melting & moulding is carried out in the interior space. Only the pakaging materials are stored in the outdoor space.The gold is sold according to its weight to the jewellers. The gold that is thus smelted from old ornaments, sold to pay off debts or to buy new jewellery.
The leather hides from chennai are evened out, dyed & embossed with designs using machinary in the indoor area. These dyed hies area dried in a separated interior area which is then converted into various goods and sold.The outdoor space is not used in the case of leather goods.
The worn- out cardboard / abandoned cardboard are collected, bought and brought which is repaired & treated, made fit for using. This process is carried out in the interior area. The outdoor & part of interior area are used for stacking the fresh & good cardboard boxes
The metals pieces are melted on raw fire in the indoor area, which are further moulded into metal into buckles, loop pins, ear-rings, artificial chains & pendants etc.It is a labour intensive work. These Articles are treated with chemicals for giving attractive shiny finish. The outdoor area is hardly used in case of metal accessories.
The tin cans are first sorted into good & bad condition ones in the outdoor area. The good ones are cleaned & re-sold, but the bad ones are first beaten to remove the dents and then are treated with the chemicals. These treated cans are further embossed with compant seals and sold accordingly. The treating & the beating process takes place in the indoor space.
The plastics in bad condition are gathered from various sources are Sorted & grinded in the internal space before dispatching it for further treatment.Good plastic are retained, treated & sold for re use. These treated plastic are stacked in one end of the room. The sorting & crushing is handled separately in two differt rooms or else the outdoor space becomes the sorting area in some cases.
Abandoned Electrical goods are bought from second hand dealers, scarp manufactures. These goods are broken & flattened in the outdoor area, which is further sorted in terms of circuit. Once the entire process is done, the assembly of the electronic goods is done in the indoor space.

Industries The entire garment manufacturing is completely indoor machiene based work. The finished goods are kept in one side of the room, while the raw materials & other things on the other side.
Home based Industries - Typology 1 Broom Making
Both the living as well as the plinth area is used as a workspace for broom making, and mostly the living area in the monsoon. Broom-making is practiced both individually as well as collectively. The finished product is stored outside on the plinth area.
Basket Making
The plinth acts as the main workspace for the people as basket weaving is generally practiced in groups. The raw materials are kept out side the house on the3 plinth area. During bad weather conditions the living area acts as the workspace for them.
Garland Making
The living area of the house becomes the workspace for Garland making. Sometimes the plinth area becomes the extended workspace for the people. Individual members of the family collectively run the buisness.

The outdoor open courtyard becomes the workspace for this home based industry which includes its preparation (rolling of papad) and drying on inverted baskets. This activity is restricted to the living area during the monsoon season due to lack of sunshine. Therefore sunny open spaces are critical in this home based industry.
Attribute for locating the three base typologies within Dharavi
Residential Cum Commercial - Typology 3
Type - 1
Type - 2 A residential & commercial unit exists as one unit with different functions. These could either be linked or could have completely separate identity. The entry & exit points for both is separate. While commercial is directly accessed as it is flanked along the main road, the residential units have been indirectly accessed. The majority of the typology seen in Dharavi is the residential cum commercial units. These commercial units house a variety of occupation from a small stationary shop to decent sized restaurants

Home based Industries
Proposed Model: Industry + Dormitory (Live & Work Model)
Proposed Model: Live, work & play model 1. Understanding the needs of the various home based industries and accordingly mapping the required spaces For Eg. • Papad 1. Better Physical Amenities (Sanitation, Fresh water supply, Drinking water • Broom facility, Gender specific toilets, Drainage and Disposal Facility, Hygienic- healthy • Basket living-working conditions, bed facilities, monitored cleaning etc) 2. Keeping residential space intact and matching the common areas as per the 2. Minimum Travel time and cost ( Dormitories within 1 km of radius walking requirement distance) 3. Each house would be on an ownership model 3. Easy Accommodation 4. Establishing a a DUSMC run- management office and shop 4. Better savings and work efficiency 5. The community has to register all the home based industry with the office 5. Inter-social Dependency (Health facilities at subsidized rate) Segregation of Spaces 6. Self sustaining model for individuals and industries- shift system • Household cluster - Enclosed is purely residential, - semi enclosed is connected plinth area for individual/group working - open spaces for group working • Working clusters - preparation and packing area in semi closed plinth and open courtyards - storage area: individual storage space in every house and common storage at the community office and separate storage for shops • Better Connectivity - Dedicated Pedestrian paths - Vehicular access - Internal looping - Better Physical amenities (Sanitation, water supply, Drainage, Electricity Hygienic, working conditions) • Government will be responsible for legal matters • Community management would be responsible for entire work and keeping common spaces free of encroachment. Roles of the office 1. Common space between houses would be owned and managed by the office 2. Supply of raw materials 3. Collaborate with outside agencies or companies for contracts and sales 4. Standardizing the work wages 5. Running and managing of shop

The hot and dry climate of New Delhi is the major deciding factor for evolution of the form. The building form respects the existing natural features such as trees by minimal disruption. Passive strategies have been developed on the selective model of the Vitruvian tri-partite model of environment (Hawkes) Applying different passive solar design strategies depends on the relationship between the building and the environment, which may be either selective or exclusive. Architecture Comfort An exclusive model isolates the building’s indoor environment from the outdoors to achieve comfortable conditions, while a selective model Climate allows interaction between the two spaces. The exclusive mode seals buildings, and mechanical systemswork inside them to create comfortable conditions.
Future expansion: The North-east corner of the plot features a water body that creates a wind funnel to bring in cool air towards the ceremonial space, using the predominant north-west winds. In future, this waterbody could be used as an underground water tank and a new programme can be The selective mode uses passive strategies and allows selected climate variables to enter the building to create comfortable conditions. accomodated over it if required.

e Rain water Harvesting Average Annual Rainfall in Delhi = 611.8 mm = 0.6 m Roof area (Catchment area)= 3982.85 sq.m Rainwater collection and reuse potential = Average annual rainfall x Catchment area x Runoff coefficient = 0.6X3982X0.95 = 2270 cu.m. = 22,70,000 litres annually (assuming 4 months of rainfall). Annual water demand of the building can be calculated as : Occupants= 1500 Water demand= 70lpd Total water demand= 1,05,000 litres per day = 1,26,00,000 litres in the monsoon months.
d solid waste managment The aim is to avoid contributing to the landfill and adopt a cradle to cradle approach. One of the ways to achieve this is to convert wet waste from kitchens into manure through organic waster converter
