During academic years of architecture allowed me to engage myself in various kind of project, study trips, hands on workshops and competitions. After office training semester experience, exploration of architecture started evolving by systematic and responsible thought process as an aspiring architect and initiated conceiving basic ideas like, how to deal with design problems using building technology, sustainability and innovation.
TU Delft is a prestigious university and allows maximum influx of international students in MSc in Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences with Building Technology programme, which would give immense exposure under a roof. It was learnt that how building technology track can strengthen my technical qualification by wide array of electives and studio like EARTHY and the SWAT studio. These would really bridge the gap between architectural design and implementation of the same by innovative and sustainable building technology, which is current requirement.
Under graduate thesis was to conceptualize the design approach for urban poor settlement by studying dwellings typology and spatial forms. Opportunity to learn at TU Delft with Building Technology track for my master studies would be an enhancement of knowledge and with the guidance from extremely experienced and renowned faculties, it would be an inspiration to learn from.
Summary
Motivation to pursue Building Technology as my master course has developed over the journey of past five years of bachelor in architecture and two years of work experience.
My hypothetical master’s thesis would be proposal of a smart village in India, and exploring various kind of materials and its application in sustainable and cost effective way.
Inclination towards building technology was very much clear in design approaches for forthcoming academic projects. Working opportunities after earning graduation also dealt with conscious effort in architectural design integrated with building technologies to make it cost effective and climate responsive. At a small firm based in Goa, working as junior architect, I got to work on varied range of projects which also included industrial projects. Here I was exposed towards use of modern technology to create build environment. These experiences were strong to make me feel motivated for further studies in building technology. An understanding for pursuing MSc in Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences programme with Building Technology track from Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) came from an inspiring exhibition initiated by TU Delft and curated by Professor Dick van Gameren and Architect Rohan Varma. After in-depth research, I persuaded my further learning process through master track of Building Technology. As the course being perfect for my aspirations as learner for pursuing further education, TU Delft helps me to explore.

GHAR - Gujarati term for 'HOME'. It was my house to be designed after completing my Unger graduation in architecture; which makes my family including me as my first clients in my professional work. Working for this kind of opportunity is always a dream for an ardent architect. Ghar sits in an urban fabric of Ahmedabad. It is part of the oldest societies amongst the context, having 180-200 twin houses, constructed by a load-bearing system. As the requirements of a family evolves with time, it was time to revamp the house in the present setting. Program Requirements were basic and simple for a house to be home to my family. Functionally well accommodative to existing four members and later to extended family as well. Sufficient natural light and wind ventilation were key points to make this house well habitable in a hot and dry climate of Ahmedabad. Aesthetically it should blend with the context of the site, equally giving justice with the existing condition of common sharing wall. Providing physical possibility of setting up an architect's studio combined with residence below was also interesting requirement to address.

Spatially home should acquire natural light for maximum time throughout the day, functionally it should have enough access to open spaces, spill overs and allow it to connect with society itself. By understanding immediate surroundings, scale and proportion of the house were derived. Construction techniques with a cost-effective approach was insisted, where to save material, time and money were soul concerns. Two stairs, one for internal vertical movement of residence and other one for exterior vertical movement which directly leads to top floor.

Thezoningdesign process was initiated by working on sun path, wind flow, and climate analysis. The climate of Ahmedabad is hot and dry, especially harsh during summers. Hence, after studying climate, the site was analyzed with certain considerations like; which facade takes harsh sunlight, how the building will breath fresh air. In conclusion to this, south and southwest facade of the house have to be protected from heat and east, southeast and southwest facades need to have open spaces or openings to get fresh air in the house. The basic idea of zoning was to divide the house into two parts. One; with residential activities on the ground and first floor and second; to have a multipurpose semi-open area on the second floor for gatherings, celebrations and future expansion. Climatically this kind of zoning will keep ground floor and first floor fairly cool and close to the activities happening on the street and in the society. built mezzanineup multipurpose open space set back court + stairs balcony design process

Massing on the southern and southwest facade is inspired by old traditional houses of Ahmedabad. They have projecting built-in seats with small louvered openings, which fulfill multiple needs such as, adding more movable interior space to the room and climatic buffer space to the building.

07 TINY HOUSE
Tiny house is a residential project for lower income family settled in village lambha in Ahmedabad. Lambha at present is at developing suburb area in Ahmedabad. Plot is a part of a community residing in row houses of ground floor built by load-bearing construction system. Plot shares its three sides with three adjacent built house and one side open on street. Size of the plot and its surroundings made it a challenging to design. Program Requirements of the clients were to build a house having three bedrooms, a hall, kitchen, a common w.c, bath, and wash area for the family of five. One of the insisted requirements was to have separate access for the first floor, such that it can be used as a separate individual house. Main challenge was to make all these requirements possible in low budget and cost effective way.

Low cost design was the key consideration. Therefore, many design decision were taken to save material and construction cost. Less internal walls. More openings were introduced above lintel to have proper air circulation in the living space. Built in cupboard, storages, lofts and seats. Use of cost effective construction techniques such as rat trap bond for exterior wall, filler slab and bamboo reinforcement instead of steel. Use of locally available material such as green kota stone, Mangalore tiles as filler, bamboo as reinforcement, neem wood for doors and windows Site Area - 54 square meter Built-Up Area - 108 sqaure meter

ThezoningInitial idea for the house was conceived from the study of the wind direction and sun path, as for small scale house wind and natural light is very important. To let natural light and wind penetrate through built mass was a challenge to be addressed and was sensibly addressed by introducing wind catchers. Where one wind catcher is in the direction of wind and the other is facing northern zone of the house where it helps solve two purpose of sneaking in natural light and maintaining the cross ventilation of the house. Zoning of G+1 house was done in such a way that both floors can be used individually as well as a combined residential space. sun path analysis zoning section axonometric view of zoning built up wind catchers multipurpose open area stair projectingcase terrace floor

THESIS Design Approach For Urban Poor Community : Study Of Dwelling Typology And Spatial Form. Location
The study was initiated by becoming part of the settlement for few months. Working with different methods like having one to one interaction with dwellers of all age groups, taking active part in group discussions of community and studying all statistical data of the settlement. Through those interviews and discussions, morphology of settlement was drawn. Existing typology of dwellings was studied to know further aspirations of dwellers. Activity mapping of open gathering spaces and of street was very important part of the study, as dwellers performed major activities like drying clothes, selling goods, playing, parking, seating, and sleeping during night in summers. Selected settlements have various kind of communities like potter, marvadi, migrants from nearby villages. Many communities were defined by their occupation like rag pickers, drivers, sweepers, watchmen, care takers and teachers. Site Selection

In–situ redevelopment of Ramapir No Tekro is area based proposal under smart city proposal of Ahmedabad. Ramapir No Tekro is one of largest and oldest urban poor settlement in Ahmedabad. It consists of majority of sweepers and rag pickers of the city and people residing in these community are bus driver, home cleaners, care takers, peon, watchmen, etc. Dependency of urban people on this community is very high. But life style and habitable environment of urban poor is neglected and ignored by people of urban fabric, thus urban poor settlements are inevitable. By studying this issue, it led to the study of the site and take this as design research project. Program Basic analysis and conceptualization of design approach for redevelopment of urban poor settlement was by understanding existing condition of people and character of open space used by them. The initial idea was to serve as an intermediate between the project proposing-executing committee and the users and propose resourceful design solution. Gujarat, India cademic roject rof.

11 THESIS Ahmedabad,
03 Project
An introduction Ramapir No Tekro in Wadaj, also known as the Tekro, is the largest slum area in Ahmedabad. Home to approximately 150,000 residents, the slum consists mainly of people falling under the classification of Scheduled Caste who are originally from villages around Gujarat or potter families from Rajasthan. The entire development is considered an encroachment because the land is owned by the government and is therefore temporary; however, people have been living in the Tekro for over 50 years. Today, through government attention, most of this slum area has electricity, water, sidewalks, and a gutter system. However, due to problems with addiction, health issues, superstitions, backward traditions, high-interest loans and illiteracy, many slum dwellers continue to live in the same cycle of despair and poverty. They earn their incomes by driving rickshaws, rag picking, cleaning homes, shining shoes, and working as potters or day labourers.

17 THESIS DESIGN APPROACH FOR URBAN POOR design approach stage 1 stage 2 schematic section stage 1 schematic section stage 2 schematic section stage 3 stage 3
In order to achieve high density in urban fabric of Ahmedabad, vertical development is necessary. To give habitable environment to urban poor, floor plates were stacked in such a way that, at every alternate floor they have an open lobby to interact with neighbours and recreational activity can take place. The open lobby can be given specific function such as anganwadi or women welfare hall. As most of the family of existing squatter settlement are rag pickers, so at ground floor scrape collection centre was placed with parking. As open spaces on ground is very important for daily activities, gathering and celebration, one of the first concept was to take those open spaces on every alternate floor plates.
existing cluster of dwellings
Dwellings between two street have proper wind and light ventilation. Adding up common open spaces for recreational activities, local gatherings and celebrations, these open air spaces act as buffer zone on street which can be used to put up stalls and small shops for community.
For vertical movement, stair case was introduced be tween the blocks of dwellings, as they allow wind to pass through and makes the cluster proper ventilated.
As streets in existing settlements were having lot of activities taking place, this lead to work on idea, to take those streets above floor and giving activities at various levels. Open activity spaces are connected by open terraces which acts as activity spots.
designclusterofevolution
Vertical stacking of dwelling was primary idea in order to make open space on ground.
As design evolves vertically, open spaces on ground floor are reflected on every alternate floor plates and each floor plate consist 16 dwellings. Those open space potentially acts as children play area, women welfare center or anganwadi (kindergarten).

Evolution of site plan was inspired by existed pattern of dwellings in rectilinear form and streets allowed the circulation all round the block. Inference of study suggested that open space at regular interval of street was prime requirement of dwellers.

The main occupation of people in Vasad is agriculture and business. Tobacco is leading crop produced in Vasad which is closely followed by toor daal. Large toor daal (pulse) processing mills are located in Vasad. Their total number adds up to 45. Toor dal cultivated and processed in Vasad is considered to be the best in quality all over India. It has also started securing fame worldwide which has led to an increase in its export. The "Bhattha" tobacco of Vasad is very well known for its quality. Vasad's tobacco delights not only the citizens of India, but also gives the pleasure to foreigners." Soil conservation and water research institute has been established by the Central government in Vasad to reduce soil erosion and water management in this part of Gujarat. Study of vasad town was carried out in group of 8, as a part of urban design studio. Focused study area was Main Street of the town, to know the character of the town and habitat of people using it. Observations and inferences of multiple site visit was narrowed down to potential programmed proposal for betterment of vasad town. Program After the study conducted in group and analyzing the existing condition of the town’s fabric, Individual proposal for the town was derived. The proposal was to revive the neglected importance of open spaces on Main Street of vasad. Proposal of redevelopment of existing old panchayat building and a public garden with a kindergarten, public parking, open air amphitheater, were part of the urban design proposal for the town. Designing street furniture such as having pedestrian, cluster of bench, plinth for gathering was interesting part to address. There were several old traditional houses in dilapidated condition, restoration of those houses was a sensitive proposal to keep the identity of the town intact. Thus photographic documentation of facades and elements of those houses facing the street was carried out. Important part of the program was to give importance to almost a century old traditional facades of the old houses which are in dilapidated condition present on street. Those old traditional buildings can be given some function such as public library and museums. Also, streets were also proposed as non-vehicular for dedicated time of the day. Public parking were part of the program at both ends of the street.

Activity mapping at 9 am shows people getting out of their homes and beginning their day setting up the lorries and gatehering at chauras. A lot of pedestrian and vehicular activity was observed. Traffic from the express highway also was noted, which adding traffic to the main road. Activity mapping at afternoon shows almost negligible activity. Majority of people rest in their homes and some use otlas – open foyer concept, in front of their houses. Vehicular activity was also very less in afternoon, only few two wheelers were noted on the street. Major street activity was stagnant, eg. vehicles parked on the main street. Activity mapping in evening shows the most active time of the day. The streets are filled with people engaged in different activities. Streets are filled with people shopping or going out to buy household items. Some visit food stalls, while others gather at crossroads to meet peers. The street is most pleasant at night, all the people gather at otlas and crossroads. The temple fronts become active zone with old men gathered outside performing their daily activities.

Design criteria for site plan was to make it open and well ventilated through streets. central open space was surrounded by dwellings. peripheral green plantation filters the breeze coming into the community. Furthermore central open space was distributed to form clusters aroun those small open courts. by doing this monotony of streets was breaked. Again streets were developed properly with edges of open spaces and dwelling modules. stage 1 Initial thoughts for housing was to create an environment which is well organized in terms of wind flow and availability of natural light. Therefore, two kinds of module were designed with same unit plans. MODULE 'A' The module havinf commoncourt opening extrovert for creating interaction with public area.
