ISSUE AND THE SITE
“More dreams are realised and extinguished in Bombay than any other place in India..” Issue Introduction
The city has least amount of open spaces as per the conventional standards. While few cities abroad have quite higher areas per person, Mumbai lies amongst the last few cities in this category. Inadequacy of open breathing spaces poses a great challenge to Mumbai’s health and wealth. BMC has set open space standard at 4sq.m. per person in the draft Development Plan. The city is still in shortage of 1591 hectares, thus making only 2.76sq.m. available to each citizen in the future.
Demographic Survey
“Mumbai’s eastern waterfront will demonstrate resilience through INNOVATION, EQUITY, REGENERATION, and PROTECTION. It will re-establish Mumbai on a global stage while embracing and promoting the city’s unique IDENTITY and serve as a replicable MODEL of development.” Present Portland Scenario
The port has been largely built through reclaimations, making MbPT or BPT the largest real estate owner in the city of Bombay. The relatively unseen 28 km eastern waterfront - under the ownership of the Port Trust - forms an integral part of the city’s land mass. This covers 1790 acres of land owned by MbPT all over the city. Of the total 1790 acres, 680 acres of land is on lease while 20 acres are occupied by informal settlements. It is stated that the port earns about Rs. 200 cr annually from the land. The port land being a huge mass at a strategic location can help the city breathe by providing one and all with adequate open spaces, also deal with the socio-economic concerns of the city. The neighbourhoods of the Port Lands can add to the “Cultural Capital” as well as the “Social Capital” of the entire region, providing the Mumbaikars the last remaining spaces that can be claimed to create a more liveable city.

Basti population: 5000 Basti area:5000 SQ. M. According to Rajiv Gandhi Awaas Yojna: 120 units (60% of area total area): 25 sq. m. 38 units ( 30% of total area): 40 sq. m. 9 units ( 10% of total area): 60 sq. m. All unit areas are minimum carpet area requirements.
LOW COST HOUSING | MAIN PLAZA (ABOVE PARKING) Main Plaza
The unit and housing typology is borrowed from the existing fabric, major axes have been retained to reinforce a sense of gradual evolution. Flexibility in terms of open spaces spells ease for the residents. Open breathing spaces have been scooped out of the clusters, harbouring greens and common spaces for the community. Community facilities like shops in the micro neighbourhoods so formed, dispensary, aanganwadi, storage warehouse, and a community hall that serves as a workshop or skill development for the locals.

Housing Studio | Semester 8 Team Project | Members: Deepesh Sangtani, Humaira Kabir, Mayank Gupta, Ojaswani Mehta, Sushmita Tripathi, Zainab Zaidi January, 2016 - April, 2016
Project Brief Design proposal for a proposed residential skyscraper in the city of Noida amidst a township that caters to one and all. Spread in twenty-acres of land, a complex for approximately 1500 dwelling units and other necessary public spaces considering the architectural and technical aspects
Concept Three separate towers of different heights planned in the centre of the site with common entrances. Recreational spaces are introduced after every few levels connected by skybridges at two levels on the recreational floor that act as a separator between unit type floors. Leisure facilites introduced on the lower common level, breakout floors and outside the tower within the complex for the users and other members. Spaces planned according the given standards and required level of interaction amongst users. Majority apartments provided with a view of the surroundings and landscaped site. Regular square shaped towers planned with a central core considering the structural study and to minimize wastage of area to benefit both, the users and builders. Monotony has been broken by terminating the towers at different levels while the elevation treatment has been maintained by planning the breakout floors and service floors at the same level.

Residential Skyscraper, Noida Structure Core Plan The 40 X 40 M enclosure is achieved by a grid of columns on the periphery and the shear walls of the elevator core, such that no interior columns interrupt the habitable space. The 900 mm thick elevator core shear walls and the 900X750 mm columns on the periphery employ M40 concrete reinforced with Fe25 grade steel bars to form an earthquake resistant structure.
The lift circulation employs destination control, which reduces the number of destinations per car and thus the number of stops per cycle. This decreases the average travel height and the cycle time. When elevators are equipped with destination control, this can even reduce the number of elevators per group. The passengers and functions can be filtered by the management and the destination floor. The fire lift runs continuously from the ground floor to the top floor.

June, 2014 - August, 2014 First Prize Winner in Annual NASA Design Competition Third Prize Winner in Design Masters Challenge, Ethos
Project Brief Analysis and proposal of design solutions considering today and tomorrow for a precinct which has high importance in the society from time immemorial
Concept Transformation of the stretch is in itself a highly layered exercise, not isolated but linked in a manner that the outcome is mutually inclusive. The concept of environmental concern and economical soundness intermingle with the perception of the human psyche to fashion a sustainable environment, transforming the lives of users and enhancing the space. Envisaging a lively setting, retaining the charm of the place, the transformation intends to make a shift from the unorganized to the prepared, but from the shabby to the vibrant and colorful. The rich cultural fabric so obtained shall rightfully complement the Jama Masjid, subdued in its presence.

05 Her-Etage
The Abandoned Leisure Landscape Design Competition hosted by Journal of Landscape Architecture, Delhi Team Project | Members: Deepesh Sangtani, Humaira Kabir, Sushmita Tripathi
October, 2014 Won Special Mention in Landscape Design Competition Published in the Journal of Landscape Architecture, 43rd Edition
Concept The concept is to intervene into the unseen abandoned structures amongst the designed urban fabric, and convert the ‘ugly’ gray structures into a living environment. The incomplete building on the overcrowded Barakhamba Road, witnesses over ten thousand people pass by everyday, belonging to all socio-economic strata, each one demanding a ‘break free’ space during their hectic schedules.
View of concept development for facade treatment
The intervention idea includes landscape, which can be perceived beyond the cliched definition and focus more on the natural elements which are unobserved from our daily sights yet they play a vital role in bringing sense of life. The design creates a space, for the working class people to have their doze of landscape into their congested air-conditioned office chambered lives!
Her-Etage: The Abandoned Leisure
ISSUE INTRODUCTION | PROPOSAL Site Justification and Proposal
Ever imagined of a building that serves not business but, people? One that exists on the busiest road, yet gives you the happiness of melancholy? That provides a natural feast within the polluted commercial lanes? Leisure, to most of us means a change in pace and place in the usual routine. Studies prove that public spaces are most functional when they meet the recreational needs of the everyday schedule rather than those manicured gardens located in one isolated corner of the city. The capital city lacks largescale public spaces saved from the web of private sectors charging for their quality socio-leisure time.
The site caters to a wide category of public, governing the requirements for the project. Site analysis shows the people accessing the site; majorly belong to the age group of 25-50 being the working class, followed by tourists and students. The main problem of the 9-5 working class people is the monotony of their surroundings and their congested working environment. As a result, during their usual breaks, these executives tend to go to air conditioned restro-bars or cafés along the street of skyscrapers, or they approach the under-tree perched paanwaalas. The project caters to the desires of people from all economic or social strata, and their expectations out of a public landscaped zone, a place away from congestion within the capital’s busiest center. 15floors provide an opportunity to explore ‘landscape’ at multi-leveled dimension, yet maintaining the sanctity of each experience.
Delhi, the largest metropolis is fortunate to have open parks, green spaces, heritage structures yet it lacks large-scale public spaces saved from the web of private sectors charging for their quality socio-leisure time. This sector has a majority of commercial Influx, demanding a free public space structurally and environmentally different from the existing surroundings.
The capital city, some might get nostalgic about the abode of poets’ romanticized delhi, while the recently migrated population might recollect the sight of concreted high steel and glass commercial assemblies being built all around. The city’s current growth sector includes, flyovers, multiplexes, malls, and other functional structures. With over 1500 high rise structures in the capital, does anyone keep an account of “abandoned” buildings left unseen amidst the offices, houses, schools, malls or other prominent structures? Usually, a building becomes classified as “urban decay” as a consequence of bureaucratic dispute or a myth associated to superstition and unfortunately can remain in such a condition for over 50-100 years! These overlooked structures lie in our urban fabric, observing the city and population develop through the years, while the people wish for them to be demolished to clear the land for another corporate structure to come into existence. In conversation with a few delhiites, the sentences that caught the attention were ‘ye buildings tod kyu nahi dete?’ or ‘beautification can’t be complete till these gray surroundings don’t get removed’ . The question arises, With the urban growth, the rising population and its demands, is there a scope of letting the uninhibited structures occupy essential spaces in our surroundings?
Her-Etage: The Abandoned Leisure
PROPOSED DESIGN Beginning from the ground to the fifth floor, the building provides the general public with a quiet zone for their refreshment. However, from the sixth to the tenth floor, one experiences nature from the most basic to the densest form of it in a hierarchy. The two highest floors let the people take in a gasping view of the city and relive the feeling of being free from office chambers. The rooftop restaurant and night-sky dock allows people to achieve a spectacular view of the capital’s historic yet significant circle while they dine, away from the city chaos.
