“Great images have both a history and a prehistory; they are always a blend of memory and legend, with the result that we never experience an image directly. Indeed every great image has an unfathomable oneiric depth to which the personal past adds color… Primal images, simple engravings are but so many invitations to start imagining again. that would be our own, that would belong to us in our very depths.” Gaston Bachlard, The Poetics of Space “Since ancient times the genus loci or ‘spirit of place’, has been recognized as the concrete reality man has to face and come to terms with in his daily life. Architecture means to visualize the genus loci, and the task of the architect is to create meaningful places, whereby he helps man dwell.” Christian Norberg-Schulz, Genus Loci – Towards a phenomenology of Architecture. “If the architecture is any good, a person who looks and listens will feel its good effects without noticing.” Carlo Scarpa

“Perfection is lots of small things done well.” Marco Pierre White “Decoration is really about creating a quality of life, and a beauty in that life which nourishes the soul, that makes life beautiful. That’s what it’s all about, not just what’s in and out.” Albert Hadley “The designer of today re-establishes the long lost contact between the art and public, between living people and art as a living thing.. there should be no such thing as art divorced from life, with beautiful things to look at and hideous things to use. If what we use everyday is made with art, and not thrown together by chance or caprice, then we have nothing to hide.” Bruno Munari

ABOUT ME I am a recent graduate of the Interior Architecture, Adaptive Reuse (MDes19) program at RISD and am actively seeking a role as a designer in the Greater Boston Area. At RISD, my main focus was on adaptive reuse and I got an opportunity to further my understanding of the concepts surrounding it when I was invited by one of my professors to intern under him for the summer in Linz, Austria. I possess over nine years of professional interior architecture and design experience in high-end residential and office design in New Delhi, India. My under-grad and work experience in apparel design prior to that, continues to inform my understanding of material and color palettes today. In my future role, I look forward to applying my experience whilst continuing to grow and mature my skills. On a personal note, I love historical fiction, coming up with recipes for healthy yet delicious food and figuring out travel plans revolving around Scarpa. I hope you will enjoy having a look at a sample of my studio work from RISD and select professional work.

SEEKING THE SPIRITUAL AND POETIC conversion of an unused painting studio to a yoga and mediation center

The goal of this adaptive reuse project is to explore what makes a space poetic, how certain spaces inspire peace amidst even the most chaotic environments and what kind of changes can be made to an existing space to embue it with this spirit. The initial part of this project involved research into churches, museums, retreats and spiritual spaces as precedents. As per a new train of thought, the museum today is increasingly being considered as ‘the new church’. I studied The Hepworth, Wakefield, an art museum in England by David Chipperfield to understand the design strategies employed in its conceptualization. The host site, 50 Brook St in Providence is an unused and decrepit building, formerly used as a painting studio by Brown University. It is located in a residential area mostly occupied by Brown and RISD students. The demand for a spiritual retreat, a place to relax and occasionally get away from the stress of graduate studies has been growing in recent times. The site therefore naturally lends itself to being converted to a yoga and meditation centre. Design strategies such as thresholds to create an incremental disconnect from the outside world as one goes in, natural light and views of nature to draw one forward, creating a sense of discovery through the addition of partitions and smaller spaces expanding into bigger ones to give a sense of lightness to the soul were used to add an understated poetry to the space.

Precedent Study - The Hepworth Wakefield, designed by David Chipperfield in 2011 is a multiaward winning art museum and gallery in England. Jason Farago once wrote, ‘Like the cathedrals of bygone eras, galleries are now the ultimate buildings of our times – and the way we use them mimics religious rituals.’ This aptly descibes the experience of the museum.

Contraction & Expansion - Precedent study showed that low height smaller spaces expanding into taller bigger ones create a sense of upliftment. The height of the mediation and yoga hall and the classroom was inceased to achieve this effect. The meditation hall wall next to the garden was deliberately lowered in height and the columns surrounding the rock garden on the rooftop were made taller than the opening to the garden as well.

CONVERGE - DIVERGE addition of a gallery and a co-living and co-working space to the remnant of a former bank facade

The host for this project is a neo-georgian building facade, a fragment leftover from the demolition of a formerly distinguished bank. It stands in the heart of downtown Providence with what is a now large parking lot behind it. With the advent of driverless cars, parking lots wont really be required anymore in the next couple of decades. In this studio we researched what life maybe like 10 years from now and Gen Zee characteristics. That combined with Providence’s efforts towards becoming America’s cultural and creative capital since the past few years lead us to come up with a program for a co-living and co-working space for makers and creators. The intervention was designed with the idea of creating connections at its heart - connections with the building’s past history, with the city at large, with the surrounding spaces, with nature and most importantly within the community living in the proposed domestic space. This was conveyed in the building through a series of ramps that span the structure, connecting the existing facade with the new building and the public with the inhabitants.

The host - a facade, a remnant of the bank building

A day in the life of the creators of tomorrow envisioned

The building occupants are creators who thrive in communal settings, want to live in micro apartments and have large common spaces to share. They like to collaborate and having a good work-life balance is important to them. People from this target group are either single or couples who care about wellness and want to be close to nature while living in an urban environment.

The roof houses a communal vegetable garden. The outdoor space can be developed as a garden and be open to the public, providing ample space for art installations and social gatherings.

PERFECT - IMPERFECT

creating the framework for a new narrative conversion of an unused church to a community kitchen and restaurant

The Cathedral of St. John on N. Main St., Providence was built in 1872 AD and closed down in 2012 due to poor attendance. Currently it is derelict and run down. RISD was approached by the canon of the Cathedral to consider ways of breathing new life into the space. One of the original founders of the church was associated with slave trade. Keeping this in mind, the church wanted to explore the possibility of creating a dialogue around repair and reparation for slavery in Providence in the 1900s. The church has two levels, the main level and the basement. In this studio project, I chose to concentrate on the main level of the church. While researching and analysing the architectural style of the church (neo gothic), I was struck by what was considered to be ‘perfect’ earlier and how that definition has changed with time. This combined with reading and watching documentiaries about what being forced to become a slave meant and its effect on the psyche over generations, became the starting point of my take on the project.

The proportions of human body, as the culmination of God’s creation, is also an important source of geometry for this style.

god aristrocracy

common people

slaves original heirarchy inherent in church structure Architectural elements - In gothic revival church architecture, principles from pythagorean and neo-platonic geometry are followed. The geometry follows two rules: one is that all constructions must begin with a circle, the other that symmetry must be maintained.

Influenced by philosophers such as Plato, light is believed to be the most direct manifestation of god. The windows and ceilings are purposely designed such that when one enters, the eye is continually be drawn up.

The ‘perfect’ symmetry of the structure distorted by ‘imperfect’ fragmentation to create new form, infusing the space with dynamism and giving it a new lease of life. The framework created is open to appropriation and can grow as per the needs of the community. There is an attempt to neutralize the hierarchy inherent in the space but the ‘sacred’ is still preserved when we take what was considered to be sacred into account. Originally, among other things, ‘sacred’ pertained to what represented the interests of the larger community As such, the communal tables for eating have been placed where the alter used to be present. This type of seating is also reminiscent of The Last Supper by Da Vinci.

THE HOURGLASS INVERTED adaptive reuse of the remains of a few old chairs

This furniture project involved creating a new type of seating with the remains of a few old chairs. Playing around with the hardwood pieces lead to the realization that they created beautiful shapes in negative space. One of these looked like an hourglass, the essential symbol of time. Where did these pieces come from, how old were the original chairs and what were their stories? The design concept originated from these questions and is as much a timepiece as it is a piece of furniture.

Trying various itirations while thinking about a timepiece inevitably lead to playing around with the idea of moving forward or back ward in time and alternately, looking backwards in time to understand how we reach where we do in life. Eventually we settled on the inverted hourglass shape to represent this.

Acrylic and lazercutting technology was used to create a clear differenciation between present day and the era the chair remains are from and the final result is below.

ST. GABRIEL ALTE MUHLE conversion of a mill building in a 100 year old monastery to a tech start up centre

St Gabriel Alte Muhle, a 100 year old monastery in Austria recently opened some unused parts of the complex to the public. In a bid to attract public interest and in keeping with today’s requirements, they wanted to convert an old mill building to a tech start-up centre. I documented the host and created the 3d model. Building the host site from scratch in Revit was an education in how construction methods and materials have changed over the last century. The initial design proposal included opening up parts of the ceiling to let more natural light in. The arch of the existing windows was picked up as a design element and taken forward for creating bigger openings between interior spaces. Large round hanging light fixtures were used to further enhance this feel.
