Competition by Council Of Architecture.
Project information :
The Design of Centre of Excellence for Council of Architecture was In the quest of finding timelessness in architecture through Vedic planning principle of Nandyavarta . Nandyavarta style of planning is predominantly devised for promoting and manifesting intelligentsia, which regards in dealing with intellectuals possessing culture and political influence. It synthesizes the definition of timelessness in conceivable definitions. Nadyavarta style of planning suits the idea of representing the Centre of excellence for council of architecture and thereby the concept of timelessness. The spaces are planned with the intention of enabling the elements initially mentioned about the timelessness of a space and then married with the idea of Vedic planning of Nandyavarta.
Location : COA- Center Of Excellence, Bangalore University Campus, Bangalore.
Area : 2 Acre
Legacy of architecture consists of it being an undisputed sanctuary of education as well as its ability to command the commercial front. Efforts of encapsulating the essence of the very same discipline rather becomes a magnanimous task, as architecture is known for establishing silhouettes of many other disciplines known to mankind. Thus, following a timespan of many eons of human settlements and reflecting that in the formation of a silhouette, an outline which will define the further generations thereby giving them a structure to feel belonging to, is a task of greater importance. And hence, defining what is timelessness, is what a designer needs to understand, and then further elaborate in the design with the required detailing.
defining NANDYAVARTA
With the study of various alterations and styles of Vernas, it is observed that the Nandyavarta style of planning suits the idea of representing the centre of excellence for council of architecture and thereby the concept of timelessness. Several reasons support the said statement, outline being the fact that Nandyavarta style of planning is predominantly devised for promoting and manifesting intelligentsia, which regards in dealing with intellectuals possessing culture and political influence. Considering the cultural and educational influence which COA India possess, nationally and internationally, a space which commands volumes of authority and excellence, will be justified by divine intervention of Nandyavarta style of planning, known for its quality of inducing joy and pride.

STREET H ERARCHY
Degree of enc osure
As a person enters from the main court to the alley the degree of enclosure , drastically increases.
The narrow alley with projection gives the space a very introvert nature , resulting in making the space more active in terms of human scale due to its changing degree of enclosure.
In this, primary and secondary roads originally housed bazaars with residences isolated to the interior tertiary street on upper tiers.
LEGEND:
the visual permeability is decrased vertically up to some extent as there is absence of foreground, as well as there degree of enclosure is more.
Vert cal y
STREET V BRANCY
Majorly mixed land use is seen on street edges with predominantly residential areas in the interior Insertion of cul-de-sacs increases permeability on katra-level, the katra gives a deserted look at night.
LEGEND:
kad w thin the Qu lla : the second site (pocket)is a narrow alley with shops and residential unit surrounding acting as an interface for connecting the Quilla ahluwalia to the secondary market sheetsabutting to it.
MOVEMENT PATTERN
eabil ty hor zontally the floors are horizontally connected through continuous balconies.these balconis are narrow enough to accommodate a single user at once.
The degree of permeability goes on decreasing as we move upward for a third person . For the residents, the permeability goes on increasing .The main spiral staircase is located at the beginning of the nukkad .Other staircases are located secretly around the courtyard This decreases the degree of visual and physical permeability
Activ ty pa tern
The ground floor activity although being commercial has a sense of informality due to nature of shops .
Pedestrian thorough fare in the katra is made possible in easy way due to pedestrian nature of streets vehicular traffic is restricted as the precinct lies in the medieval town the streets are predominantly pedestrian but, in current use these hierarchy of roads acts as hindrance for direct vehicular- thoroughfare.
The projected plinth of the shops acts as sitting space for the shop owners and passerby, increasing the degree of physical permeability in nukkad.

NATURE OF SPACE
High sense of enclosure
Ground floor of the alley , is a commercial space due to presence of the shops. the ground floor largely belongs to a single wholesaler while the upper floors carry the same uses of the rest of the Qilla.
The streets acts as open space for the katra residents and provide space for informal activity The street lies in the public to semi-public setup of the katra. The choice offered by the streets make the precinct permeable.
LEGEND:
POCKET SELECTION
Urban
The corner accommodating the spiral staircase contributes in providing character to the street ; while others are hid in the courtyards.
Informal nature of spaces
The facade of Qilla Ahluwalia serves a monotonous band of elevation on the 1st floor catering to the function of school, whereas the second floor demonstrates variety in elevation as a result of Residential builts and its transformation.
While traversing inwards, the intimacy has been balanced with increase in its sense of enclosures.
The characteristic feature of the built form has distinctive nature with commercial market on the ground level. Intermediate level acts as a storage space for goods and the ultimate level for the residential use
The facade of the elevation on narrow street have simple exteriors w t h e s s o r n a m e n t a i o n t h u s v s u a l y c r e a n g m o n o o n y contradictorly physically the corridor spaces are desin catering to variety of activities.
y a c c e s s i b e p l a c e s a r e unless they offer a choice of experience. narrow alley thus lacks of quality providing such experiencial choice due sense of enclosure it creates.
The wholesale market on the ground floor also attracts specific users in morning the threshold of the shops caters activities such as social inetraction, newspaper reading . comparitively at the noon and evening time the space fails to cater such diversified activties fostering to an inactive place.
Functionality of the street offers degree of accessibility which leads to attain identity to the street.
Being a commercial wholesale market, it acts as the prime activity generator
These paths allows cycles pedestrian and other non automotive traffic to pass through defining filtered permeability
Nature of building typology creates an informal space in the selected pocket.
Prominent activity pattern enhances the vibrancy at its junction .
