Revealing view one by one
1.2 Research topic
How series of vision guide our eyes in architecture ?
Only a part of the view is revealed at first sight
The research goal is to comprehend how much user mobility in a location may be controlled by leveraging the visibility of the environment to direct users. This topic was chosen because cinema is a series of moving images that tell a tale in a similar way to how a series of vision cues lead the user through a space series of vision revealing one by one guide the user throughout the space
View leads to node points Cinema - series of moving pictures reveals the story Gathering nodes1.3 concept and philosophy
Serial vision
In 1961, Gorden Cullen came up with the idea of serial vision, in which he directs the user down a specific path. He created a sequence of nodes, each of which has a unique spatial quality that can only be experienced by getting to that specific location.
Gorden Cullen's serial vision
Linear nodular connection
He creaeted a tension between hereness and thereness in spaces

1.5 Research application
The user is led down a certain path by a succession of visions that can only be experienced once the user arrives at the particular node. The entire campus is built on the fundamental layers from site analysis and research inference. Each node further divides into a group of visual experiences.

04 Annual Nasa Design Competition
nd ANDC Citation winning sheets [2019]
A documentation of a special grade town in Tirunelveli District of Tamil Nadu, India. It's marshy land promotes the growth of the indigenous weed korai , which is used to make silk mat that sustains the village. This intense process of weaving is passionately followed by the people here but they hardly make their ends meet.
62
Design Process 4.1
Here, we offer three design standards for Pattamadai. First, we suggested setting up a weaving and subsequent processing facility close to the banks. The second is to add production units to each home by converting the roof into a triangular shape; this will generate revenue for the household. And the last one is in every home in Pattamadai should have a vertical garden, which would be filled with commercial flowers like jasmine that generate income and which also acts as an air filter in the house.
Here, the exploded views show how the roof top is modified and used as a permanent workspace by connecting roofs of different houses.
