SVARAM MUSIC INSTITUTE, AUROVILLE (THESIS PROJECT ACTUALIZED) This project was part of my architectural thesis in the 10 semester. After the academic design, this was shown to the actual insitute, who invited me to work with them on the building of the project, in Auroville, India.
ABOUT MUSIC The continuity of spaces by voids, forms interactive spaces follow a curvature with the sound bath on the focus of the site. The sound bath is also furthermore on an elevated mount there by creating visual focus for the viewers. Breaking the pattern and creating the voids provided dynamic experience to the users.
Music comes from Greek “mousike” in relation to an art inspired by muses, music is the art of combining sounds and silences, in a way that creates harmony and usually transmits an emotion.
THE SEGREGATION OF SPACES AND FUNCTIONS
EXPERIENTIAL BASED DESIGN AND INTERACTIVITY OF MUSIC WITH THE USER.
The dynamic spaces that are created in between the forms are shown in the voids, creating a rhythm.

All were topped with parasol having segregated spaces under a common roof.
SITE PLANNING The site planning has been inspired from the Auroville Galaxy plan by Rodger Anger and forms the Spiral of a Nautilus with a focus point from which the form expands outward. in the present design the focus is the Sound Bar which is an exclusive element and activity for the Svaram music Institute. the extending arms from the Sound Bar how is the functions and decreasing hierarchy like the workshops, the museum, the officers and the visitor centres.

The initial concept revolved around a terraced slab system which gave the user an experience of open and closed spaces’ interaction. The building expanded from a central courtyard which consisted of the core and other functions that had to be shared between the different arms that extended outwards. The form was however, continued in its linearity and had a heaviness to it which did not contribute to the landscape
On further development of form, the concept hinged on providing spaces in a linear fashion that gave an easier circulation pattern for all the footfall generated for the building. The building extended linearly on both sides from the central core and symbolized progress. The form extending in its linearity, continues with aesthetic and image of the previous design iteration but envelopes enough pockets that open up ample scope for landscape and interactive semi-open spaces.
The concept evolved from the design derivatives of providing stimulating experiences for the people inside the building’s environment. The whole built block is situated in various levels that garner an interactive space for people who walk under it. The design grabs eyes towards the building from the central courtyard.
The concept is derived from the simple figures represented in the logo itself. The circle represents infinity while the square is interpreted as an attempt at understanding this infinity. These simple figures are designed to form both inward looking inclusive gallery and also opened and extending educational centre.
The landscape elements and open spaces within the building create an inward looking atmosphere. It symbolizes looking inward for answers and focus. The building is inclusive while also opening into multiple directions.
The form is a continuous structure that situates itself in multiple levels and opens into maximum possible directions for providing ample interaction for open and closed spaces on the ground floor,

The pneumatic facade modules can be programmed to either expand or contract upon a condition or a parameter, bringing light and even air flow inside a building. This is specially used in the rapidly changing climate of Bangalore. Also, since the units are all filled with air, this can also be used as an insulating facade system. These systems consist of a plastic ‘bag’ which is maintained under variable external pressure, enabling them to expand and contract- thereby blocking and unblocking the sunlight from outside.

During the day, the facade is designed to optimise daylight and views while controlling the indoor climate, to reduce the energy necessary to maintain a comfortable temperature in the building’s interior, the facade varies in relation to where the sunlight is the strongest. To reduce the building’s cooling cost the design aims to cover the southern side, which absorbs more sun heat than the northern side, more opaque and keep the northern side more transparent. Glazing on the glass is angled to reduce the impact of direct sunlight and the PV panels on the southern facade harvest solar energy. The basis for the facade expression is to achieve an effect of variety, irregularity and intricacy through the elevation. This is achieved by combining photovoltaic cells along with glass to create a facade that is as functional as it is

URBAN DESIGN- A MIXED USE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT, NEW DELHI, INDIA In the 9th semester, we looked at Urban Design and redevlopement projects. This project is part of a redevelopment plan of an existing housing colony into a mixed use developement including office, retail and housing projects.
PRE- DESIGN STUDY/ MAPPING The design process started out with studying site, its conductivity, how the access to the site functions, through both the roads and through the pedestrian walkway too. This data was then mapped onto the site graphically, cutting the site to modules and understanding which module would be covered with built form and which will be left open with greens and for circulation. This analysis paved way for the form and thus the design.

Axes and visual lines of sights in the precinct
SITE PLANNING AND MASSING
The site is in an L shape and is bounded by a road on one of its arms. The planning has been done with the housing units’ mutual proximiy in mid, with the heavier and different kind of traffic that goes into the retail and office building. The massing goes from a high to a low to another high as we go from one end of the site to another. This goes with the built planning of housing and retail on either ends of the site with the public spaces in the middle. The office and retail spaces have courtyards and punctures within themselves to allow for a balance between the built and open spaces and an abundance of terraces. In the housing, however, there are large open courtyards betwnn the tall towers which allow for public outdoor activities as well, binding the communities together both spirally and functionally.
UNITS AND MODULES IN DESIGN
The design is massive and consists of a number of different functions and typologies like housing, office and retail spaces. The open spaces connect these two together and wave them into a seamless unified development project. On the right side of page, there are the housing modules which have been arranged in the most efficient way in terms of natural light, ventilation and ease of access and stacked into large housing towers. The office spaces are not as standardized as the housing units and are therefore mostly left open to be designed and used as per individual office requirements

ELECTRO- CHROMATIC GLAZING The perspective image shows how the shading of the windows can be controlled by electric variations without the use of projections. The facade is a mosaic of squares and rectangles which are placed directly as the wall itself on some of the faces on the building sides. Each of these boxes have an optional, two mode functioning that affects its surface property. The first model will make it completely opaque whiles econd will turn it transparent. Also the opacity of the panel can be attributed to the presence of fine photovoltic dust which will in turn produce electricity.

SITE PLANNING AND DESIGN The site presented for the project was predominantly linear site with the shorter length facing the road, and the access through vehicular traffic. The design’s vision was to moniize the facades facing the south and west directions to save on heat gain, which it attained through its diagonal placement on the site.
TERRACES DESIGN The design also had a multitude of terraces that would built into it, towards the upper floors. The terraces were designed to provide relief in to the elevation, to give spaces to relax for the users and also to give space for green terraces and other such interventions to reduce the heat given onto the slabs and therefore reduce the energy consumption of the building as a whole.
HOTEL DESIGN, AGRA This is a conceptual design scheme for a combination of two five star hotels, with a shared back of the house(BOH). The design mainly explored the role of terraces as an elemental aesthetics and function, and also as the meeting point of the two hotels.
DESIGN AND VISION: The design of the hotel is such that floor plates are all alike excepting for the edge where the two different hotels buildings meet each other. The terraces formed create a play between the floor plates about and below them, thereby giving a very staggered effect to an otherwise monolithic form. This not only adds an element of intrigue and chaos to balance out and contrast with the rest of the form, but also creates a very engaging view for both far and also users from within the courtyard. The regular rooms are arranged in an array all through the monolithic block, except on the terraces, which are balconies, given to the suites and other premium rooms. There is some servicing that is done in common in both hotels at once.
