Tourism Memorial Park

“A tribute to mountaineers”

Year: 2018

Project Type: Architectural Thesis Proposal

Location: Pokhara,Nepal

Area: 8.8 acer

Altitude:1120 m above sea lvl

Programs used: AutoCad, Sketchup, Lumion, Illustrator, Photoshop

The tourism memorial park is designed to honor the brave mountaineers, trekkers who lost their lives during their visits in Nepal. The project stands as an reassurance to family and friends that Nepal recognizes their bravery and honors the lost souls. Tourism would not have flourished in Nepal without several renowned foreign visionariesThe project has been designed to provide monuring and remembering space to the visitors and let the world know the untold stories of the tourists who came to be part of the journey towards the mountains of Nepal.

The Concept

‘Perception of Mountains’

The concept ‘Perception of mountains’ is derived from the basic form of mountains as the theme of the project is related to mountaineering and trekking.

Mountains are continuous and irregular, and the project’s plan and 3D form show this. Blocks symbolize sharp mountain edges. Sharp edges symbolize profound emotions, like the memorial design. Nepal is recognized for its mountains, therefore the design was inspired by the mezmerizing landscapes of Nepal.

The central circle of rememberance has a tree as a symbol of life. The tree symbolizes lost souls in nature. The memorial monument honors mountaineers and symbolizes a tall mountain. The museum has three main blocks with a courtyard in the middle. The location has a commemorative tree planting area. Wall of names is round, symbolizing circle.

The Museum

The design narrates different phases of mountaineering through elements of architecture. The memorial complex is not only building of usual sense, a building with walls, ceilings, window that enclose a space. It is rather an architecture that stands out and looks like sculpture from the exterior but the interior space can be experienced. The interior space also tries to tell the story behind the different experiences of mountaineering and trekking.

The circular remebarance space is inclosed by water wall which trigerres peoples feelings through sensory architectural element. The central weeping tree acts as a symbolic element which represents new life after death. Sunken steeped seating becomes a platform for visitors to sit, remember their loved ones. The strategic use of natural elements in the design was to create a symbolic space in the center of the site to have the esesnce of memorial space.

Wall of names

The names of the mountaineers and trekkers who lost their lives will be inscribed on the wall. The wall connecting the view tower gives message to the relatives that the deceased souls are transferred to new life. The names will be sorted according to the date of death. Ramp of slope 1:12 is provided along with the wall of names. A memorial chorten is placed at the centre of the circle. Visitors pray for the deceased souls in this space.

Ray of Hope

The memorials in some way are subjected to lightness and darkness. The memorial tries to present the memory as occurred in terms of lightness and darkness. Looking at the space created we are able to define the type of memory and type of emotions it has tried to demonstrate.

The Flux:Port Credit

“A dynamic and flexible Urban Space ”

Year: 2023

Project Type: Urban design Proposal

Location: 1 Port Street, Port Credit, Mississauga, Canada

Area: 8.8 acer

Programs used: AutoCad, Sketchup, Lumion, Illustrator, Photoshop

Situated in the scenic Lakeview of Port Credit, “The Flux” is a visionary urban design concept that initially emerged from the idea of freedom and unbounded spaces, fostering a strong connection between people and the breathtaking Lake Ontario. Subsequently, the concept prioritized permeability and seamless integration of spaces, emphasizing the enhancement of pedestrian flow and fostering connections among individuals. Beyond its commitment to a visually appealing environment with limitless vision, “The Flux” also functions as a hub for a diverse range of experiences.

The Concept: ‘The Flux’

“The Flux” prioritizes permeability by incorporating a network of walkways and pathways that seamlessly traverse the site, including passages through buildings. This design fosters an open and inviting atmosphere, encouraging easy movement for pedestrians without imposing rigid boundaries or hierarchies.

Erin Mills

“A

hub for diverse Activities ”

Year: 2024

Project Type: Urban design Proposal

Location: Erin Mills Town Center, Canada

Programs used: AutoCad, Sketchup, Lumion, Illustrator, Photoshop

The redevelopment of Erin mills Town center focuses on shifting car centric design to pedestrian centric design. The project was designed to create pedestrian only zones that are car free and create a vibrant yet functional environment in the public spaces. The design also focuses on increasing more density to accomodate housing needs of potential residents of Erin Mills.

The Vision: ‘Pedestrian Centric Design’

The vision for future Erin Mills development is to create a pedestrian centric design with diverse activities based on sensory urbanism. The goal is to shift the design from car centric to pedestrian centric by connecting major entrances from each sides, to create a dynamic pedestrian only zone which is a hub for activities like recreation, shop, restaurants, parks, plazas, waterbodies, making it a major attraction to draw people from surrounding.
