SPATIAL REQUIREMENTS OF PROJECT
•The buildingarea should be at least 200 m2 and 1 m2 per people.
•At least 70% of the buildingprogram should be dedicated to residential spaces which could be of multi purpose type.
•The design should be able to meet the thermal comfort standard and indoor air quality standardsas mentioned in the Green Rating Assessment systems.
•Additional facilitiescan be added, though energy and water performance calculationsto be restricted to the residential spaces only.
• Warm humid climate has no heating requirements.
• Excess sun and heat gain should be avoided for thermal comfort via passive cooling techniques.
• East and West facades receive uniform and strong solar radiation throughoutthe year.
• Glare free light is mostly availablein the north while south requires shading from harsh sun.
• Predominant winds are from southwest south direction.
• July Aug are the wettest months while Dec Jan are the driest.
• Months with most sunshine are Dec May with average sunshine hours of 8h.
• The months with least sunshine are July and August with average sunshine hours of 4h.
CONCEPT
HARMONICA
A harmonica is played by using the mouth to direct air into or out of one (or more) holes along a mouthpiece. B ehind each hole is a chamber containing at least one reed.
AboutTheSite
It is proposed to locate the libraryin Pune, State of Maharashtra.The site is in the precinct of Deccan College, Post Graduateand Research Institute. The area of the plot is around 3.8 acres. The site abuts a 30.0 m wide main arterial road on the south western side called the Akluj Phule Nagar Road.
CONCEPT
PUBLIC LIBRARY
AboutTheProject
• An organisation established, supportedand funded by the community, either throughlocal, regional or national government or throughsome other form of community organisation
• It provides access to knowledge, information, lifelong learning, and works of the imagination througha range of resources and services and is equally available to all members of the community.
Spatial Requirementsof the Project
• Considering the current standpointof publicreading spaces, it has become imperative to combine traditional features with digital services, while making sure that they co exist, with neither one dominating over the other.
• Technology and design guidelines need to be harmonized to encourage creativity and innovation, allow discovery, stimulate collaboration and interactions, upholdinnovation.
• Broadly, there are 4 differenttypes of spaces that can be assimilated with publicreading spaces, those are: Inspirational Spaces, Learning spaces, Meeting spaces and Performative spaces.
Pune has a tropical climate. In winter, there is much less rainfall in Punethan in summer. According to Köppen and Geiger, this climate is classified as Aw. The average annual temperature in Pune is 24.3 °C | 75.7 °F. The annual rainfall is 1200 mm | 47.2 inch.

•The idea behind organic architectureis to put human life, nature and the built environmenton the same level and build a sustainable ecosystem where all components support one another and thrive as a result.
•This form of architecture can be distinguished from more traditional stylesby its peculiar characteristics.
•Another key component of this architectural style is simplicity. Open spaces are valued as the number of rooms is reduced.
•The organic aspect of the structure does not merely limit itself to the design but also to the qualityof livingthat has been adapted to the rules of nature.
