Lower Parel Underflyover The under flyover holds a crucial position, being in front of the famous Pheonix mall and Lower parel industial estate. the roads on either sides of the under flyover cater to large number of traffic due to lower parel bridge shut down almost all 24hrs of the day. There is a large footcount in the area from both pheonix and palladium malls and the industrial estate.
The other half of the under flyover is dedicated to providing people with a sitting space as there is a large number of people from small scale industries. a small park for kids has been proposed as found needed from the survey conducted during the study.

Unbox Project 6th Semester | Group of 4 Transformation of an identified unused space in the city as a part of competion under University of Westminster, London
GRE Y AT Connaught Place – Centre of centre. (GREY) Middle Circle– Disused ring in the Centre. Empty Hose Boxes– Acting as catalyst, reinventing the potential Disused urban space. The Box– Compact Multi utility box to Socialize, Play, Generate. (GRE Y AT) Intent– Reminiscence, a romance between the user and the long lost culture and heritage via this Centre.
An initiative to convert the disused GREY spaces into active GREAT spaces by using the waste hose boxes as catalysts (CANVAS) to attract people eo such urban spaces. A disused space is one such space that is not being used for any significant purpose or not being utilized to its potential. Keeping such spaces in mind, our motive is to tranform such spaces into spaces that solve a purpose in a recreational way. Even one such transformation can be a step forward in the betterment of the built and the social environment.
SITE IDENTIFICATION Connaught Place - Centre of centre (GREY) Middle Circle - Disused ring in the Centre. The intention is to transformorgify the Middle Circle, which in contrast to the colonnadded whole lies disused, utilized only as route connecting the blocks however the presence of hooligans in the inadequately lit ring make it a dead stretch and unfrequented by most.
Design solution and intent The Box– Compact Multi utility box to Socialize, Play, Generate.
Transforming the empty tin boxes to human-powered charging stations with the incentive of converting mechanical to electrical energy by incorporation of mechanical flipbook and kinetic pattern generator. Catalyst design: A folding table subtends out of the box with Kinetic Pattern generator on it and also sitting that comes along with it, folded inside under the table. A mechanical flipbook is there on the rear face of the metal box. You Plug your cell phones to the sockets embedded on the edge of the table. And thereby, charge your phone. You rotate the crank and create interesting patterns on the table using the kinetic installation meanwhile you also flip through a “mechanical flipbook”, that makes you go through the old forgotten panchtantra tales. This, mechanical energy along with solar energy from the solar panels installed on the table charges the battery for the next user to plug in his phone. Furthermore, this electricity gets used up at night to provide lighting in that area. Thus called ‘PLUG POWER PLAY’.

SUBJECT-ORIENTED INSTRUCTION-INFORMATION ENTERPRISE TEACHER AS INSTRUCTOR SUBJECT-TIME-BOUND CURRICULUM ROTE LEARNING RATHER COMPETITIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
CHILD-ORIENTED INSTRUCTION-INFORMATION ENTERPRISE TEACHER AS GUIDE/HELPER UNBOUND CURRICULUM - PATH TO SELF DISCOVERY SKILL BASED LEARNING REAL LIFE UNDERSTANDING DISCOVERY BASED APPROACH
The current education system, formed almost 60 years ago, hasn’t evolved effectively since. The system focuses on scoring high marks that leads to a competitive atmosphere rather than helping discover individual child’s talents and encouraging towards them. The curriculum followed has subjects - maths, science, social sciences and languages on a daily basis, whereas creative areas are called ‘extra’ curricular activities and so treated. The child in such cases, if not interested in the similar areas, is called as being ‘weak’ or ‘average’ in studies and is left feeling discouraged. The new proposed curriculum will create a holistic approach towards learning for creative individuals and ensure better understanding, engagement and all round development. The school curricuum will equally focus on academic subjects like maths, science and language with activity and brainstorming areas to ensure a child’s mental, physical, spiritual, psychic and vital development.
Different subjects require different nature of spaces, some more experiential than others. To make every classroom stand up to teaching needs and methodology, teachers are given subject room thats gives them the flexibility to personalize the rooms according to their teaching methodology. As students travel from class to class, movement break get integrated which enables learners to maintain focus, integrate learning across both of the brain’s hemispheres, enter information into memory, and avoid feeling overwhelmed or information overload.
Student movement between classrooms give corridors a very different definition. Corridors become places of interaction and experience which makes it necessary to plan them and locate them in strategic positions to ensure higher engagement, visual porosity and better experience. Corridors could be places for informal work and respond to different students needs.As students walk around, chances of accidental interaction increases that could promote towards outside class learning and a better aptitude. Visual porosity and curiosity are enhanced
The proposed time table will allows 5 min gap between periods to provide students with time to move between classes.
Total no. of classrooms in traditional school for age 6-18 is 60, whereas number of total classrooms in the new school infrastructure are 47. That is a difference 13 rooms, i.e. 552sqm. hence, the new school infrastructure saves 552sqm of built area as compared to the traditional buildings.
On Mondays, 8 periods, each 40 minutes, take up the whole day. While every other day of the week, i.e. Tuesday to Friday, 5 periods each 70 minutes long take place with one free period of 40 minutes. Longer periods allow for teachers to carry out experimental learning as it gives duration for preparation.
Schools attract a number of differently abled students, hence achieving a barrier free environment at least in the school and its vicinity is necessary. The design uses ramps as the primary mode for vertical circulation instead of staircases as an approach to diminish the gap between physically aided and un-aided, and an attempt to make students with challenges not feel any different from others. The site is a already existing goverment co-ed sarvodaya vidhyalaya with offer education from class 1 to 12th. The students attending the school are mainly from nearby colonies like Ekta vihar, Sonia camp, Indira camp and aurobindo colony.
The built is predominated by open areas in the site precincts. Areas are planned with green areas and height of built reaches to a maximum of G+4 and has majorly residential landuse around.

Dissertation 7th Semester | Individual Project Study of commercial signages on commercial streets and how they affect user perception and cognition of the built environment.
The architectural character of a street is an effort of each unit (building) of the street to stay in with the one next to it and very vitally still project the statement it was designed for. With commercial signs today being observed to be having a dominating role in creating spatial and visual quality of a space, user experience gained in streets has changed, the study investigates their role in spatial quality of a place. A comparative study of signage, their physical characteristics and concentration in the street, and surveys carried out to understand how signage play a vital role in user perception and cognition of the built environment.
Reseach Question 1) 2) 3)
When does signage in built environment start to damage the visual quality of that place? What can be the design considerations that can help in enhancing visual quality of a place? Does signage, amount and design, impact in better user evaluation of a commercial street?
Due to increased branding and commercialization of places, signages have started taking over the building facades. Even after the regulations by delhi outdoor advertising policy(2008) on designing of signage taking care of the built surrounding and design of signage to enhance user experience, not much has been brought into practice in the last 10 years. Where cleverly planned and placed signage can enhance user experience of any built environment, on the other hand, uncontrolled or poorly planned, out of context signage can degrade the spatial quality of the same. Uncontrolled signage is mainly seen as a result of the mixed use typology of buildings emerging all over the world, each floor of the building is assigned with varied function which is not communicated through architectural facades. Commercial signs are hung on building exteriors to communicate the function to the pedestrian. This mostly ends up damaging the visual outdoor aesthetics with each floor having its own branding as signs and disproportioned poorly planned aesthetics and placement in the hurry compete with each other to attract users.

Millenials Guild Urban Design Project | 7th Semester | Group of 5 A Mixed Use Skill Generative City Planning Targetting the Millenial Population
New Delhi, being the capital of the youngest country in the world, where 64% population is in the age group 15-64, can help achieve the goal of the Ministry of Skell Development and Entrepreneurship by creating centre of opportunities, removal of disconnect between demand and supply or skilled manpower, building the vocational and technical training framework, skill up-gradation, building of new skills, and innovative thinking not only for existing jobs but also jobs that are yet to be created.
The Vision aims at a development process that strives for sustainable urban development and economic prosperity by providing and enabling an environment that facilitates exchange of ideas, and the possibility to turn these ides into products, services, and innovative solutions to urban problems. Creating environments that foster and enable intensive, on going, rich, diverse and complex knowledge moments for all.
Hybridity
Connectivity
Nodes constitute an “armature” forming “a core of movement, activity and meaning” including “key routes and places” in the public and semipublic realm of the”most significant streches of the key channels of movement.”
Porosity
Authenticity
Translucent urbanism that allows fuctions to co-exist by turning the walls- both real and symbolic- into porous membranes between public and private spaces.
A combination of large- scale and small- scale interventions, both systematic and the serendipitpus; responsive to community needs and tastes, which have to do with local climate, topography, history, and culture.
The conservation and development of the cultural, aesthetic and ecological values that give cities their character to attract knowledge workers. A key dimension of sustainable urban economic growth. social tension and conflicts such as social exclusion and unemployment discourage both knowledge workers and investing firms away from a region of percieved danger. Cosmopolite atmosphere, accepting others with. Open channels for communication and knowledge exchange. Easily approachable, well connected, regional transport and information technology infrastructure.
URBAN DESIGN GUIDELINES All public spaces shall be universally accessible, safe and usable for all age, gender and income groups. Open areas requirement of the social infrastructure facilities shall be acommodates within the clock/ cluster plan, or integrated into the multi-use Public Open spaces provided in the area. Create street level activity and well-watched streets for pedestrian safety. Shuttle bus service/ car pool services must be provided by all govt. offices as welll as large trip generating private uses like malls, institutions, etc, if the station is beyond 300m of walking distance. Residential frontages should preferably have balconies/ verandas and active spaces facing the street. Commercial ftrontages at street level should have facades with 40% transparency and active use. Additional recessed walking zones could be created.
