Architectural Thesis

BRIEF - Global warming, driven mainly by human activities like fossil fuel burning and deforestation, has led to rising global temperatures, which in turn cause sea levels to rise. This ongoing phenomenon threatens coastal ecosystems, such as mangroves and salt marshes, disrupting habitats and biodiversity. The rise poses significant social and economic challenges, including displacement of populations, loss of agricultural land, and increased costs for adapting infrastructure.

INTENT - This thesis proposes a floating habitat as an innovative architectural solution to address the challenges of global warming, rising sea levels, population growth, and loss of marine biodiversity. It aims to provide adaptive solutions to urban issues such as land scarcity, encroachment, mobility, waste management, and improving the standard of living, particularly in coastal cities like Mumbai facing the threat of rising sea levels.

Visual understanding and learning are crucial in art and design, as they help creative professionals like sculptors, painters, and designers find inspiration and stimulate their creative thinking process. To support this, architectural concepts can be designed to remove visual and circulation barriers, creating an open and seamless environment that encourages exploration and inspiration.

This can be achieved through various spatial elements, such as Spill-out spaces, Mezzanine floors, Walkways and connecting corridors, Interactive and dynamic spaces.a

Spaces that invite movement, interaction, and creativity, enhancing the learning experience by allowing users to engage with their environment physically and mentally.

Mall Front View

Mall Rear View

This mall design concept reimagines the traditional retail environment by incorporating shipping containers as the core architectural element, creating a bold and contemporary aesthetic. By using containers, the design emphasizes a modular and flexible structure, allowing each floor to have a dynamic arrangement that forms unique shapes and patterns. This approach breaks away from the conventional mall layout, encouraging exploration and visual intrigue as visitors move through different levels of the building.

The containers are outfitted with glass facades, providing a sense of openness while allowing natural light to filter in, enhancing the overall shopping experience. The transparency of the glass contrasts with the solid industrial feel of the containers, creating a balance between ruggedness and modernity. Neon lights are strategically integrated around each container, with varying colors on each floor to distinguish different sections and add a vibrant, futuristic touch to the design. These lights not only serve as an aesthetic element but also help in wayfinding and creating a distinct identity for each area of the mall.
