The site is located in Noida. The concept is a natraja figure considered as lord of dance. It expresses rhythm and harmony of life. There are 5 principles associated with the figure and hence 5 different functions are designed accordingly. There are 5 stone walls raised to 10m height signifying the form of natraja. A lotus fountain with natraja statue is placed at the entrance. A cobra shaped sculpture and round corridors at the central place. The contours at rear side signifies hairs of natraja. There are sculptures of dumroo and fire corresponding to the figure. PROPOSED AREAS : • Site = 8000 sq.m • auditorium = 650 sq.m • Library = 300 sq.m. • Café = 280 sq.m • Staff room = 300 sq.m • Studio = 70 sq.m • Lecture room = 60 sq.m • Seminar room = 30 sq.m • Music room = 60 sq.m • Recreational room = 120 sq.m • Admin = 100 sq.m • Parking = 42 cars • Ground coverage = 2480 sq.m

The project is to design a large span factory shed for HINDWARE . PROPOSED AREAS : • Shed area = 60 x 25 sq.m • Admin = 50 sq.m. • Washrooms = 50 sq.m. • Quality check = 60 sq.m. • Packaging + storage = 1350 sq.m
The concept was to have exposed trusses which creates pergola and casts shadows on the huge structure. The elevation was simple having squares and triangles. PLAN
The site is located adjacent to TCV village, Dharamshala,HP. The site has various contours and there are roads running all along the site. The project was to design a PHC and a residential unit for doctors and nurse. The concept was to design a central diamond shaped lobby area which connects to general wards, canteen, emergency rooms and also conveniently to residential units.

CIRCULATION
10-12 ACRES
7 ACRES
6 ACRES
Classrooms are about 23ft. X 20ft. Accommodating around 45-50 students. There are enough windows for lighting and ventilation. One wall has display boards.
The class rooms are very bright and airy, making whole environment quite comfortable . The boards are on either opposite walls making students just not face one wall only hence making the classrooms more interactive.
The classrooms which are bright and airy, are square in plan with two corners chamfered , allowing a relatively intimate relationship between teachers and students and also the possibility of rearranging desks for group projects.
The hierarchy of spaces is a successful approach . The way classrooms, corridors and terraces merges into an arrangement of spaces is quite through of which give the whole place an informal character. Once the school gets over students don’t feel alternated but are free to explore.
Four clusters are in turn grouped around each court. A close relationship between the indoors and the outdoors is maintained at all levels with body being adaptable to multiple uses.
All the open spaces are landscaped with neem trees and decorative plants. Some open areas are paved and have round benches for students. For children there are swings and ground in their wing. There is an open air amphitheatre around the play ground made with red sandstone.
SUGGESTIONS / RECOMMENDATIONS The role of the architect while designing a school is to create a atmosphere and environment which contributes to the growth of each student’s mental, physical, spiritual potentials. The design should be such that students appreciate it and find it a helping hand in their progress in education.
OBSERVATION
ST.XAVIER’S SCHOOL, DELHI
There are corridors connecting different blocks. As the campus is huge many blocks are isolated from one another giving spaces for students of different age groups. The canteen, church and sports field are connected by roads which are dangerous for students.
•
•
•
MIRAMBIKA SCHOOL, DELHI
Circulation and visual linkages are very well incorporated in the design. In Mirambika there is a constant flow from one place to another and visually continuity is maintained between the inside and the outside.
The classrooms are small • for accommodating 50 students. There is very less space for movement between the rows making less interaction of student and teacher. The composition of school is good having enough open and • covered areas for students interaction but blocks are far away from each other hence intermixing of students • of different age groups is less. The corridors connect different blocks and have punctures for light and ventilation but due to doubly loaded corridors they do not get enough light.
Each class opens into the internal courtyard providing good environment for the students and interiors are arranged such that students are very interactive with teachers. The courtyards provide good light and ventilation with each courtyard blending with nature. There is a ease of access from corridors and pathways. A slide in the main courtyard provides excitement in students and breaks the monotony of courtyard.
SHRI RAM SCHOOL, GURGOAN
The corridors are placed around a series of courtyards in a manner that the journey is one of discovery, with surprises at every turn in the corner. Also there are creepers hanging from box planters adjacent to railings in the inner courts enchanting the visual impact of the building
•
•
•
In the classrooms, windows provided on two walls for ample lighting and ventilation. The movement is made very interesting through beautifully landscaped courtyards. Each block is connected by bridges or pathways hence providing ease of access and good interaction between students of all age groups.
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE ?? Each one of them can lead to the creation of an academic environment suited to the physical and intellectual needs of the student and teachers. So the building design makes a major contribution to a school programme aimed at a good quality of education.
