The design intent is to build the structure that acts as a “ramp” to portray fashion at every place of the site, “changing” at every turn and “interacting” with the people through different structures strategically placed after each element of the edifice…

WEST SIDE ELEVATION The “Ramp” is the ultimate showplace of displaying fashion… Fashion is analogous to “change”.. of lifestyle, thinking, cultures and mind sets…

THESIS PROJECT- FASHION HUB

“Interaction” between the artist, the art and the people is the platform on which any art rests.. especially fashion and architecture..

MASSING

BACHELOR’S PROJECT (INDIVIDUAL)

Ramp, Change and Interaction are the main ideas that form the foundation of the edifice that stands as this Fashion hub..

ACADEMIC WORK YEAR: 2007 & 2008 LOCATION: Pune, India TASK: Case Study, Design development, Presentations, Working Drawings AREA: 70,000 Sq.M

EAST SIDE ELEVATION Height of the structure is intended to keep at human eye level in most of the masses. Theses masses are divided into fragments and are placed at an angle. This formation achieve two goals1.forms pockets between each other, which facilitates natural light in the building and forms green zone 2.adds to the visual connectivity,buildings placed at an angle gives directional flow for the visitors. Strategic positions of the vital functions is one of the key factor. Also public areas are separated from the day to day activities, which maintains privacy.

Fashion Industry in India is in nascent stage at the moment and has great potential to make its mark on the world stage. Indian fashion has thousands of years of tradition behind it. India has a rich and varied textile heritage. Each region of India has its own unique native costume and traditional attire. Fashion Industry in India is growing at a rapid pace with international events such as the India Fashion Week gaining popularity and annual shows by fashion designers being held in the major cities of India. Indian fashion industry got a big boost by the victories of a number of Indian beauty queens in International events such as the Miss World and Miss Universe.

Due to the decentralization of the Mumbai city, Bandra has become an important commercial centre along with the newly developing centre for trade-BMRDA. Hence to maintain growth rate of business activities in Mumbai regions, which is so important for the entire country. Bandra is the best place for such fashion centre. Considering the zone dadar-prabhadevi and northwards till andheri, bandra is a centrally located area. Bandra has a right balance of commercial, business and residential activities. The site at bandra would be ideal as it is connected to the western express highway and at the same time is also near to the railway lines, which is an ideal condition for the location of the fashion centre.

About site: The plot area is 70,000 sq.m which is allocated in textile block. The plot is under the land ceiling act, 1976. the land could be allotted on a lease period for 80 year. F.S.I. of 2. The minimum setback along the roads for the site is 12m. The maximum ht from the ground level of any building within IFBC has to be permitted by department of civil aviation which is currently 40m. The plot is already developed with roads, storm water drainage, water supply, and underground sewage.

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS: India is a significant destination for design development, raw material as well as the manufacturing for the global fashion. Fashion Hub is a vision of a space where each of these elements meet and do business together, thus support & complement each other; generating higher profits due to the exclusive infrastructure and economic support on offer. Fashion hub is an unprecedented, self sufficient, commercial township, which will provide a permanent destination for the fashion shows & events, fully equipped with facilities & infrastructure to facilitate business between India design fraternity & foreign buyers.

4 A

2 Facilities like amphitheatres and auditoriums, fashion shoots studios, media rooms would create a space for designers & buyers to interact. There is an integrated retail zone for designers to display their works which would also include all luxury brands. The Fashion Hub is equipped with leisure spaces such as restaurants, theatres, art galleries & museums. A crafts bazaar would make rich Indian heritage of textile available with commercial interpretation will attract foreign visitors & buyers.

Sense of scale and perception of space an be achieved by breaking up of bigger as well as open areas into smaller pockets connected by referential semiopen transitions.

RETAIL TOWER

Dead wall and water bodies acts a backdrop to the outdoor photo shoot areas. Tree foliage and the systematic formation of landscape acts a breather.

MUSEUM HIGHLIGHTS: Museum ramp is wrapped around the tower & climbs from ground to first floor with one side being opaque & other being glazed, overlooking the campus. For the easy accessibility restaurants & small eateries are placed along the road. The important functions such as central auditorium, allied small auditoriums, museum, administration, retail tower are bound by the metaphor ‘’walkway” or a “Ramp”, running through the campus & changing at every turn.

COURTYARD The form of the building has been generated to allow reflected diffused light into the building through courtyard. The proportion of the blocks facilitates two distinct work areas and a passage in the center. The work areas will receive daylight during the day minimizing the requirement of the artificial lighting.

This 50,000 sq.ft office is a combination meditative soothing workspace coupled with a vibrant and buzzing environment. The effect has been achieved by connecting all the spaces visually and by the inner sanctum that is designed as a garden. This building is the corporate headquarter of the Indian subsidiary of a German company. The central hillock forms the main and the more interesting horizontal and vertical access in the building, by removing elevator far away. The lift shaft is taken away from the main circulation areas. This was an architectural effort at making occupants use the hillock to reach other parts of the building and make it difficult to reach the elevator. after occupancy, study revealed that people actually prefer the landscaped hillock to circulate and they also find it more pleasurable. This is the biggest architectural triumph in this structure as it helps save enormous amount of energy, and at the same time making people interact and appreciate the greenery. also functions like the gymnasium and meeting rooms integrated in the courtyards make people use these spaces more constructively. they become more vibrant and active...

Horizontal circulation happening from the west side connector and east side bridges also connecting the lift shaft. the elevator is removed from both the blocks and placed into a beautiful water body. It has been placed in the most vibrant place in the structure, but form their respective work areas it is a long distance, also passing through the offices of higher ups. Result of this exercise is to make the occupants use the central space for vertical circulation instead of the elevator.

The long south exposed to the high summer sun need to be protected from glare and radiation entering the building. A deep overhang has been created on the southern face for the same. Also smaller overhangs on lower floors further break the sun rays from directly falling on the building. A cube projecting from the building also helps in shading entrance area. The cube, visually also indicates the entrance in a heavy subtle way also acting as a porch. Meeting rooms in upper floors occupy this cube only looking sideways o avoid the harsh summer afternoon sun.

SHADOW PATTERN STUDY

Concrete: form finished concrete has been used as the primary material. on the east and the west face load bearing walls are formed using this material, with very small openings to avoid low sun entering the spaces. the walls are folded intermittently to increase their strength without increasing the thickness. The inside of these folds are filled with aereated concrete walls forming a ventilated cavity, drasitcally reducing heat transmission inside.

The inner landscape is divided into smaller niches to give each space a more personal feel. At the same time, the visual connectivity over all the levels of the building gives the space the illusion of volume and drama. Hardy plants such as bamboo, creepers and artica palms have been used to create dense foliage. The design of roof ensures that the plants receive ample sunlight and air.

INTERIOR WORK SPACES THE ROOF: WOOD SCREEN ASSEMBLY

THE ATRIUM:

WOOD SCREEN DETAIL PLAN Wood: wooden screens cut the direct sunlight on the south face. these screens have 5 adjustable angles and can be opened or closed, depending on the available light.

The atrium formed between the two wings have been used to open out the building to the reflecting pool and the coconut plantation beyond. Also the wings embrace each other all floors through terraced levels which also act as recreation spaces for the employees. Sometimes only for reflection siting under a tree. But always maintaining a vibrant and lively work environment. Employees are encouraged to manually make vertical moments by use of these lush landscaped terraced, rather than the elevator.

The initial architectural proposal for 4G control center is located in Reliance Teck Park (RCITPL). The proposal was comprised of NOC and allied corporate office to support the facility. The brief suggested that NOC could be a stand alone structure without any connection to other facilities. Definite mechanism needed to take visitor's directly to visitor's area and back, hence resolution on the entry and exit routes is a primary aim. Space matrix is provided for each department with size. The displays/ video walls need not be cubes but could be composed in a manner to suit the intended design. The concept is a fundament use of climatology. Complex has four independant towers which are binded by the plaza on the first floor. On tilting the blocks at 45 degree, pockets between the buildings open up to the south westerly winds which will keep plaza significantly vibrant. Building cluster keeps the plaza in shade for most of the time in a day for employees to take a stroll at any leisure time. Soft corneres allows wind to come in smoothly and unobstructed. The central administration tower with adjustant to the corporate office form a fluid juxtaposition of built, carrying horizontal lines on the facade to make it look homogenous.

DESIGN GENESIS The 4G facility is designed to cater to three primary requirements, control tower being stand alone facility, separate route for the visitor’s and employees and to make a landmark structure. The dynamic masses carry strong horizontal glazing lines and connects the independent towers at intermediate levels. The control tower was proposed to be an oval structure, twisting at each floor to form a strong geometry and enriching the visual experience. Windows on each facade interestingly given a fluid geometry which helps in reducing the glare and direct sunlight. Terrace gardens on intermediate plaza levels forms break out spaces. Connecting bridges from the supporting facility and control center overlook the entire site creating a vantage point.

THE OVAL: As per initial proposal, the oval mass twisted on each floor. But after the client’s brief and considering the functionality of the space, the floor plate was kept oval with the central atrium. Four service cores are placed along the glazing with double height floor plates and central atrium adding to the visual connectivity. The ramp is a visitor’s loop at the central atrium, changing it’s location as per the control room and carrying life at the central space. The structural grid is placed along the internal and external glazing. Buildings and spaces impacts human’s behaviour, psychology and day to day lifestyle. The design interacted with both internally and externally, forming life within.

The project site is located in Lab-3 & Lab-4 of RTG cluster which was originally planned as Laboratory complex in RCITPL. The core and shell works of the structure was 90% complete when both the structures was handed over to project team to adapt the space for new function of setting up a network operations centre for the 4G utilitiesand services. At the time of briefing the project programme was in nascent stage and the business group requirement was still under validation. The base-line brief by Owner was to create a facility conducive for efficient operations, future expansion and flexibility without compromising on its preventability as a business tool. The site is essentially two structures adjacent to each other, arranged as part of series of four near identical structures arrayed along the convex side of a curvilinear double height atrium. The concave side of Atrium is predominantly facing South and is the entrance to the complex. Each structure is a three storied RCC framed structure with typical floor height of 6m. The floor plate is 38m x 70m and was essentially laid out and serviced to function as a lab. Post juxtaposition of client brief & programme it was observed that an independent entry for Visitors needs to provided & independent link was to be established between the two structures. The fan shaped open space between two structure was the obvious choice for both additions. The Glazed side of the wall was reserved for cluster back office function & control rooms which require more controlled light was clustered along the solid/Opaque enclosures. The tie beam which was a potential eyesore in the double height space was at once adopted to be accommodated as part of the design concept which materialized as visitor gallery. Since the building function and occupancy density has changed, appropriate fire exists were planned one of this was used as architectural feature also.

There is a deliberate attempt to derive the circulation of visitors is in clockwise direction as per the design brief from client. To avoid overlap of visitors and operators route, accompaniment of operators bridge and visitors lift were added. Formatting the circulation for operators and visitors also involved different levels of accesses control, which have been considered and designed for.

Post juxtaposition of client brief & programe it was observed that an independent entry for Visitors needs to provided & independent link was to be established between the two structures.

LIGHT FIXTURE

The structure had a double height space which became the core of the spatial concept. The visitors are ushered to a vantage point at an elevated level and offered a panoramic multilayered view of activities in the facility. The envelope of this space is made of soft fluidic surface in the ceiling to emulate movement of fabric in open air. The walls are lined with acoustic material in a pattern vaguely reminiscent of modern built environment. The flooring creates a neutral background with subtle detail in shades and surface for sweeping arcs of console desks. The ambient lighting is achieved by LED down-lighters. Different lighting scene can be created with help of wall washers & up-lighters. The elevated visitor gallery has a backlit canopy with colour changers to play the 'Jio' colours.

The double height space of 12mtr height was envisioned as a main state of the art control room with visitor experience facility. The main challenge was to transform this huge space in to a human relative space without losing the grandeur. This transformation was predominantly driven by the console layout, visitor's bridge, acoustics, lighting/ceiling and air conditioning.

DOUBLE HEIGHT CEILING DETAIL The vertical surfaces are treated with fabric paneling of four colors. The play of colors brings warm ambiance. The fabric paneling pattern was designed to complement the fabric ceiling. It also brings in order and randomness like the ceiling. This fabric paneling is a major component of acoustical treatment. Visitor Bridge is the continuation of the visitor experience and designed as a viewing gallery for control room. The visitor bridge cuts through the double height space at 6mtr level. It props itself to the existing concrete beams and columns. The bridge cantilevers out on both side of the beam at strategic locations and wraps around the existing columns to create views on both the sides of the bridge without gathering operator's attention. The skin of the bridge is designed with strategically placed solid walls and glazing to create an orchestrated element of surprise. LED powered translucent fabric ceiling adds an ambient feel to the walk. The design intent was to enhance elements like Video walls, bright colours and console, where in floor plane is a backdrop. It had to be neutral in terms of colour, texture and pattern so that all other elements get absorbed in it with harmony. Grey colour adds depth to the space and the contest in finishes of the consoles thus becomes a highlight in the control room.

RELIANCE 4G CONTROL CENTER RATAN J BATLIBOI CONSULTANTS PRIVATE LIMITED PROFESSIONAL WORK ARCHITECT: Hlatun, Harshad, Neha, Unnati YEAR: 2012 & 2013 LOCATION: Mumbai, India TASK: Design development, Presentations, Working Drawings, Coordination with Vendors, Consultants, Site Visits, Client Meetings AREA: 18,000 Sq.M FABRIC CEILING CONCEPT The ceiling of the central control room was envisioned as a very light fabric ceiling. The idea was to create maximum drama with minimum inventory and customization. To achieve this we worked with 4 modules of length 8m and 4m with four varying widths. Each module is a three dimensional and compilations of these modules create a dynamic, wavy ceiling. The fabric has an acoustical property which helps in balancing the overall acoustics. The ceiling makes a way for the hanger supports of the visitor's bridge by means of continuous 200mm gap in the linear direction between modules. This gap also houses lights which lit up the entire control room. This functional lighting gives a uniform distribution of light achieving 300 lux.

EVOLUTION OF MASSES-1

The strong geometry of the simple arc and rectangular interlocking masses changes the definition of the architectural vocabulary of Tripura. The 7m counter is used as a design feature and auditorium is placed at this strategic location. Due to poor soil conditions, steel cross bracing is proposed at the end of the auditorium to manage the forces. Also pile foundation is proposed for the business center due to poor soil condition and proximity to the pond.

EAST SIDE ELEVATION

EXHIBITION CENTER Exhibition center acts a catalyst to the rapid growth of Tripura and north-east region. While we cater to 35,000 sq.ft., the demand for exhibition already exceeds 70,000 sq.ft.

SOUTH SIDE ELEVATION

The building is oriented to respond context, topography and climate. The habitable spaces are arranged on the north side for better visual connection with the fair ground as well as to absorb natural north light. The service facilities are arranged on the south side which acts a buffer from south sun heat, resulting in lowering down the temperature in the exhibition hall.

Exhibition center was initially located at the end of the site and was designed differently as per previous site locations. After positioning the structure strategically near the fair ground and overlooking the pond it acts a landmark, defining Tripura as a growing cultural and industrial hub. The site has heavy counters near the pond. The structure is divided in two parts. Exhibition center and business center. Business center takes the strategic location next to the pond and overlooks the public zone. Along with business center, restaurants, podium and auditorium are a part of the business center. Exhibition center and business center have glazing on the north and east side respectively to receive maximum sunlight and visual interaction at the same time. Exhibition center is currently designed to be a non airconditioned facility with clear-story light in the roof and mechanical fans to keep the hot air circulating. Business center along with auditorium is a fully airconditioned facility. Both the structures are designed with a light weight metal roof with supporting structure in steel. Also both the structures are designed to be independent structures with level drop of 2.5m between both the structures. The 7m passage between the structures acts a dividing passage which will eventually get connected to the jute mill structure, which will be converted into an exhibition hall.

Sloping sills to encourage better visibility to the exteriors, reflecting incident rays, effective drainage of rainwater and discourage perching of birds.

Thin metal sheet for heat conduction. Corrugated sheets for increasing surface area of conduction. Stacks painted black on the inside for increasing radiation.

Stepped terraces with smooth reflective surface to reduce direct heat gain. The staggering of volumes can successively shade lower terraces

Jaalis, pergolas and balconies are an inherent building feature in Jodhpur. We are planning on incorporating jaalis throughout the project for shading spaces from the harsh summer sun and to facilitate cross ventilation

Use of innovative concrete blocks and jaalis Detail showing use of traditional stone cladding with innovative stone keys anchored into the solid grouted flyash concrete blocks

Pergolas to cover terraces such that they shade the exposed surfaces reducing heat gain. Using plants and other vegetation for shading, especially on the east, west and south facades.

Wind catchers guide outside air over underground tank, inducing evaporation and bringing about a significant drop in temperature before the air enters the interiors. The hot air rises and escapes through a chimney stack.

Using Jharokas to self shade the exposed exterior surfaces thus reducing the direct thermal gain in the living spaces.

Reduction of exposed surfaces and provide shading techniques of the exposed surfaces.

The lower ventilator serves dual purpose: by cooling the space without blocking the light and view. Railings, steps, balusters, water spouts and other building elements made from locally available stone are to be environmentally responsible and also to seamlessly fit into the existing Jodhpur context

SECOND FLOOR PLAN

The intent has been to create and encourage permeability through the development 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 potential to connect to common amenities related to student housing.

The planning grid and size of the rooms has been established to simplify construction. Flexibility is inherent at least till the construction drawing stage. The layout of the rooms provides adequate privacy even with doors 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 accommodated in un-built plots as 'provisional' arrangement on built structure can be potential nuisance for the scholars during the expansion stage.

The courts within the building cluster are envisaged as series of outdoor rooms articulating along an organic path thus creating and containing space for appreciation and identity. This interesting and shaded walk starts from academic zone and culminates at the students' mess which is designed as a local landmark to infuse character in the effort of 'place making' and a wind down zone.

The rooms are cooled by supply of air collected by wind scoops and channeling them through earth or water reservoir. If required the air can be further be cooled by mist which provides opportunity to humidify air for comfort. Air movement in the corridor is generated by solar chimneys as extractor. The corridor air can be replaced with exhaust air from rooms and cooled air from shaded court. Depending on the modeling a dedicated extractor may be provided or the southern toilet shaft can be treated as solar extractor. This strategy will also keep the washrooms well ventilated.

The directly exposed walls on South faรงade are composed of wall system with materials of good thermal capacity and well insulated and protected fenestrations.

Considering a typical day in a season for each - hot & dry , hot & humid and cool type, we can determine appropriate strategies for the same. Through calculation and simulation the change in outdoor and indoor temp can be estimated to gauge comfort span for the occupants. As per CMP guidelines the building is occupied 24/7 and a comfort temperature of 28c must be achieved.

ELEVATION

ELEVATION The earth being at a higher temperature than ambient air warms the water in the underground tank which transfers this heat to the rooms above. Windows are kept closed to preserve heat. Lower sun altitude ensures solar penetration into 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 corridor.

The wind catcher 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.
