Urban Weaving: Timber in the City 01 |

ACSA Competition, Academics, Individual Timber Construction, Mixed-use Architecture, Sustainable Design Site Location - Atlanta, USA

This world before was a world of lush forests and whole of all nature until we humans invaded with deforestation creating and replacing forests with concrete jungles. This design is an effort to create harmony and reflect the importance of balance between built spaces and nature. Interweaving both of the aspects will create stability and better environment suitable for living in an urban area. Following the modular grid pattern, the structure can be used for its full potential. Layering up the floors will open an opportunity to merge the public and private spaces by creating tiny green pockets. The project based in mid-town Atlanta, promotes sustainability and green living also incorporates passive design strategies to mitigate the environmental affects and climate crises, exploring the timber construction and timber joineries.

Archi-Techno: A Facility for Architecture Pedagogy 02 |

Academics, Graduate Thesis, Individual Architecture, Space Planning, Technology Site Location - Mumbai, India

Increasing demand for student seeking architecture education has been on rise in past years. The need for technological expertise has been considerably elevated, yet architecture schools in India have not changed to reflect this new paradigm. This thesis is an attempt to incorporate technology and develop a better facility that will provide a plausible and competent infrastructure which will mitigate the problems. This thesis seeks to provide an infrastructure that bridges the gap between the real and digital world to create hybrid spaces. The project proposes an enhanced architecture facility for university to cater the demands of the increasing number of students. It intends to investigate the system to enhance the education with the aid of Immersive Technology and elevate the learning experience.

The concept of this project is rooted in the rich heritage of vernacular architecture and the diverse tribal culture of India. The design aims to cater the growing demand for ‘Ethno Tourism’; taking into consideration the country’s status embracing the second largest tribal population in the world. The philosophy of the design focuses on honoring and celebrating the traditional architectural styles and craftsmanship of the tribal communities, additionally providing modern and sustainable amenities for tourism growth. By integrating vernacular architecture with contemporary design, the project aims to create a harmonious and authentic experience for visitors, furthermore contributing to the economic development of the local tribal communities. The approach to this project involves carefully studying and understanding the cultural, social and environmental context of the region.

Concept Design, Innovation, Sustainable Design

Site Location - Ghana, Africa

Africa is blessed with beautiful coast line but rising sea level poses a major issue. It seems to be inevitable so to propose a solution to this problem, we designed a floating island which would be self sufficient, in symbiosis with nature and sea. Vertical farming is proposed to be adopted around the island catering the food demands of the people.

Pavilions were designed to be constructed with ’Teak Wood’ and roofing with ‘Manglore Tiles’. Wooden columns supporting inclined roof having its base column attached within concrete. Wooden rafters and purlins were used for the framework of the structure for the roof incorporating wooden joineries. The details illustrate the wood & concrete joinery detail with the metal rod supporting the entire structure at column core.
