01 WOKING CAR PARK VICTORIA WAY WOKING, UK SIR ROBERT MCALPINE The scheme is to demolish the existing red car park and replace with a new structure which better suits the needs of the overall development, and also provides a structure with a functional life similar to the rest of the Victoria Square development. This also allows the opportunity to provide a space which incorporates modern thinking in car park and retail / leisure space design, whilst incorporating technology (car park equipment will be installed by the car park operator with infrastructure and connections to control areas by project) which will improve the experience of car park and retail users.

02 PROJECT PICNIC LONDON, UK SIR ROBERT MCALPINE

A Scaffold enclosure is required to the East wing (Arlington Street ) in order to provide a temporary weatherproof structure whilst parts of the existing structure are dismantled and removed, and a new permanent extension is installed. Following removal of the East wing the roof and parts of the existing internal structure, a new permanent steel and metal deck structure will spring off the existing beams and columns at Level 3 or above to provide an extension to the existing hotel up to Level 9. This extension will provide additional rooms.

03 DUBAI MARINA, U.A.E AMERICAN UNIVERSITY IN DUBAI The idea of integrating nature, animals and humans led to ‘Trinity’ in order to create a three dimensional space, which will play a unique role when it combines horizontal vs vertical circulation. The circulation will consist of dynamic experience for people. This will be more interesting as this space will allow animals in the building as this will be a vertical habitat. Taking this opportunity to create a vertical space for animals and nature, followed by people who will be focused on the enhanced experience. This space will be self-sustained and green. The idea of will also educate the humans on how to give back to the environment and live with it. This will help in creating a strong bond between nature, animals and humans using Architecture as a tool. Vertical habitat, will be important for this project as this will help in connect the three elements such as nature, animals and humans. When humans go to a place like zoo, it becomes difficult for them to cover the whole area in the zoo as it is vast.

TRINITY - DUBAI, U.A.E - 18 Vertical habitat, will be important for this project as this will help in connect the three elements such as nature, animals and humans. When humans go to a place like zoo, it becomes difficult for them to cover the whole area in the zoo as it is vast. It becomes difficult to see the connection of plants and animals at a horizontal level as they can see upto a certain point where nothing is blocking there view. But comparing it to a vertical habitat, humans can see the connection in a vertical scale such as elevation and sections. This relates back to all the three elements and how the ecosystem works. Observatory deck and skypark overlooking birds fly. Horizontal and vertical spaces reflecting the importance of visual connection between the three elements. Green wall with bio concrete able to sustain itself helping the environment on the inside. The birds cage giving a glimpse of both introvert and extrovert feeling.

04 FIRESTATION DORTMUND, GERMANY THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD

This fire station 1 is one of the fire stations in Dortmund, Germany. Since this is the head office, this has office building linked to it. This building will go through a deep retrofit in order to transform the Fire station 1 into a sustainable community center which will create new interactions and new bindings with its surroundings to conform a multilinear relationship to its surroundings. This will help in creating a new bidirectional relationships and allow new interactions between them which will promote a sustainable community.

The images on the right are a clear illustration of the changes made in the project. Engaging community is important without interfering the role of the fire fighters. The community will only be engaged on the inside with exhibition, library, and cafe. Having people over will lead to interactions within themselves and the firefighters.

A comparison of common area for firefighters before and after retrofit. By adding double height space and green wall added more value to this space itself. The quality of space is improved for the firefighter who are part of this space 24 x 7.

Another comparison showing gym for firefighters before and after retrofit. Since it important to respect the spaces required, the gym was kept as it is but improving the daylight. Engaging community is important without interfering the role of the fire fighters. On regular day, the community will only be engaged on the inside with exhibition, library, and cafe. There will be events in which it is important the community being engaged on the outside as well in order to have a healthy relations with the firefighters making it a two-way connection. However, this shall be done dedicating part of the outdoor space for community so that the fire fighters can use the other exit in case of emergency. This will create a smooth transition without disrupting any events. Part of my vision is to create a healthy community within the fire station, this gives an opportunity for the fire fighters to tell their story.

PEAK DISTRICT, UNITED KINGDOM THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD The Pindale Farm outdoor center is a hostel located at the west end of the Hope Valley, Derbyshire, S33 6RN. The site is also located near to Castleton town. Pindale Farm is also part of the Independent Hostel Guide which welcomes people of different users especially Duke of Edinburgh scouts. On site, they have the Main barn, Engine house (listed building), Washrooms, store room, camping site and private residence of the owner. Pindale Farm has a lot to offer for its users as it is about the relation between indoor and outdoor. The location and historical importance of this site are appealing to its users. However, there are many more possibilities in terms of improvement on site and retrofit of the existing builds.

06 PASSIVHAUS SHEFFIELD, UNITED KINGDOM THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD House-S Project aims to achieve high energy efficiency levels by using low impact materials and high insulation levels. The project incorporates a Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery system to bring filtered fresh air in as well as extracting stale air. The success of the MVHR implies air tightening the building to achieve 0.6 air changes per hour. Underfloor heating will be incorporated to distribute heat in a uniform way.

As a residential small house, the windows are operable to give control to the user over the environment and their individual comfort. Mixing small external fixed shading devices with operable internal shading to reduce the risk of overheating during summer months. The exposed concrete slabs will also play an important role of passive night cooling.

BASE DESIGN

FINAL DESIGN

A traditionally shaped house with two storeys which separate the resting private area from the social and kitchen spaces. The project is fully oriented towards the south to maximise illuminance levels and activating the thermal mass in winter months.

Washroom Staircase Bedroom 4 Bedroom 3

Bedroom 2

The building’s fabric is made of locally resourced brick for the exterior, as well as thick wood fibre insulation layers and CLT interior walls. The combination of white painted walls with exposed concrete slabs and timber details enhance the simplicity of a home at the same time it plays an active role in thermal comfort with low-impact materials. The space planning works in a way that all rooms, living and dining areas are in the south to naturally heat them during cold seasons, while the services are set on the north side. Skylights are also important part to achieve adequate illuminance levels.
