Hotel Design Year: Spring 2015 | Design studio 5 Location: Panchkula, Haryana Studio Advisor: Ar. Anil Sharma
Conceptual View
The building has to be conceived as a profit generating, climate responsive and a symbolic design. The Corbusian influence is reflected by the raw concrete shell. The design focuses on the end user experience as well as achieving maximum spatial efficiency. Facade Treatment Options

The hotel design was to be conceived according the context as well as the climate. Our site being Panchkula (Chandigarh) was the major hub of Corbusier Architecture. Thus we too proceeded with the concrete shell skin with voids to facilitate wind movement and daylight. The hotel belonged to limited budget category so maximum spatial efficiency was also kept in mind with the fire safety standards. The site was surrounded with mall and park, adding to the iconism of this structure.

Museum Design Year: Autumn 2015 | Design studio 6 Location: Roorkee, Uttarakhand Studio Advisor: Ar. Harshit Lakra
Our idea visualizes the concept of a ‘Himalayan Museum’ beyond conventional boundaries of recreating the past and paramount. One to one visual contact with the Himalayas. The high-tech nature of skyscrapers allow us to bridge the gap between the vertical boundaries of structure and the visual aesthetics.
Conceptual View 07
CONCEPT (a) The program of museum calls for an efficient and modular display area, addressing the anthropometric requirements of visitors. In order to achieve maximum wall area for display, the geometry of a snowflake has been adopted. (b) The snowflake composed of tubular steel frame and glass is lifted 440m above the ground to provide the visitors a mesmerizing experience of Himalayan thrill and adventure.

Heat Fence Make in India Hackathon by IIT Bombay Year: January 2016 Project Advisor: Dr. Arindam Biswas
Heat-Fence is an automated, modular solar shading device which acts as an intelligent building faรงade to regulate the total solar heat gain of a building. Each module reconfigures itself as a response to the incident solar radiation, outside as well as the inside temperature. The entire system is centrally controlled and receives real time thermal data from the building as well as the environment.
