Curicculum Vitae “I’m deeply in love with music which makes me love Architecture. I believe that each built space has a story to narrate just like a piece of music. The story changes with each listener and I guess that’s the beauty of architecture.” DOB : 11.07.2001

Space Kinematics Anuj Anjaria Muntaha Rushnaiwala Darshil Trivedi Monsoon 2021 CEPT Library plinth
Space Kinematics In the discipline of architecture, there are two kinds of spaces: one, which is static whose spatial quality shifts with the changes in the activities that take place in it, with the changing nature of light, with a change in its furniture layout, with the presence of various movement patterns and so on. Here the user, along with other natural external forces is in motion and the built form is stationary; two, which is dynamic in nature and transforms its spatial quality by moving/shifting/transforming itself through its envelope and/or the elements that make that very space. Here, the user is stationary while the built form is in motion. This studio primarily focused on the designing of the latter kind of spaces. Space Kinematics is at the intersection of space composition, spacemaking elements, spatial experience, mechanical understanding, and movements in nature as well as objects.
Design Programme The program was to design a ‘BARDARI’. Bardaris are pavilions that are usually located at the entrances of spaces to direct inside. They have a strong axis and symmetric structural grid. Usually, baradaris are used for occasional performances. Here, the design demanded the kinetic building elements within the bardaris to be the performers and create a unique experience for each space.
What makes you pause? The project ‘Pause’ is a pavilion located within the CEPT campus, in front of the library creating an alternate west entrance to the campus. The spaces of pause have kinetic enclosures which open and close creating a sense of the volume inside swaying back and forth. The space tries to revive the feelings that have been ignored. By cutting off the vision inside the cubicles, other senses are exaggerated. The space tries to create an experience of solitude and a sense of privacy for one to pause in the middle of the busy campus.

The existing pavilion in front of the South lawns is demolished to create a west entrance for the campus. The Baradari therefore would be directing the users from the south canteen outside to the inside of the campus. Pause has a square-shaped plan. Arranged on all four corners are the niches to pause. In between the niches, there are passageways along both axes, one directed towards the library and the other one parallel to the library.
SECTION CC’ 0
The spaces of pause have kinetic walls enclosing them which open and close creating a sense of the cubidal volume inside swaying back and forth. The space tries to revive the feelings that have been ignored. By cutting off the vision inside the cubicles, other senses are exagerated. Further, the feeling of the rough kota tiles and the wooden enclosure(sense of touch) amplifies the sense Aof a pausing space. Hence, the space tries to create an experience of solitude and a sense of privacy for one to pause in the middle of the busy campus.

02. A Giant Home Studio Guided by Project Year Project Site
Un-gendering the Everyday City Sahiba Gulati Bhagyashree Ramakrishnan Mallika Gupta Spring 2021 Vytilla, Kochi, Kerala
Un-gendering the Everyday City In India, vehicle ownership usually lies with men, whether it is a car, a two-wheeler, or a bicycle, to say nothing of auto-rickshaws. Our cities, however, are imagined around the automobile. How do we imagine a city that recognises that half of its population does not own a vehicle? How do we imagine a city where half of the population is a woman? According to Phadke, Khan and Ranade, women constantly exhibit their purpose to be in public space; they are never there without a reason. The city constantly legitimises domesticities for women, especially women from poor households The studio explores on redesigning the existing gendered streets based on the mapping of gendered patterns already prevelant in the site.
A Giant Home
“lighting can often slide into becoming a panoptic, all-seeing gaze that monitors citizens.” Shilpa Phadke, Shilpa Ranade, Sameera Khan. “Why Loiter”
The project proposes reimagination of an ungendered street of a site in Vytilla, Kochi, Kerala. The Giant Home tries to challenge the lack of sense of belongingness for women in the streets. Since the learnings from the site mappings and various literature sources reveal a strong correlation between the ability to experience leisure on the street and the perception of belongingness, the project addresses the challenge through an overall network of anchors that are interdependent on each other and together enable women to feel ownership, to seek leisure. The project thus begins to question could spaces begin to impact social behavior instead of the normally understood norm of social impacting spatial.

Utopian Vision: A GIANT HOME
Malappuram, Kerala
Reimagining street as a home, with choices of public, semi-public, and private spaces for each user. The public street becomes the living space of the home which has access to privatized bedroom blocks and public cooking spaces. Gendered activities like cooking are reimagined as public leisure activities. Space holds the character of familiarity as a key but at the same time offers private spaces for its users to get detached from the dynamic living space activities that attract a diverse crowd both strangers and family.

10 years. I go back and forth to the bus stop everyday. In the morning usually I walk alone. I am familiar with everyone on the street. In the evenings, I prefer to walk with neighbor aunties walking back from the bus stop. It's very rare that my father comes to pick up and that too when it's too late(8:00 pm).

I already had chai from home, and I'm waiting for my bus. So I dont go to this chai shop.

Kids who choose to have leisure time on the streets could access the street libraries provided within the waiting space. Provision of a mybyk spot on the site as an addition to the existing mybyk network in Kochi also aids for their leisure. This has an appbased service but would work for vendors’ kids with the Licence ID provided by SEWA.

Since the women vendors naturally used movable furniture, the design proposes movable seating modules which allow the vendors to customize the space by arranging them in different configurations to create spaces for vending, resting, or socializing. The proposed modules also have openable shutters to keep the goods for vending

“Are there shapes, colours, moods of light and sound that affect all people – at a pre-thought, preconscious level – in more or less the same way? I believe so.But I don’t believe I can just tell people that. This would be the ‘trust me, I’m an architect road. And this doesn’t have a good reputation.” Christopher Day, ‘Why Consensus Design’
03. Muskurahat Studio Guided by Project Year Project Site
Designing with People Ramya Ramesh Harshil Parekh Priya Bhadja Monsoon 2020 Keshavnagar, Ahmedabad, Gujarat
Designing with People This studio explored the role of the architect in such processes at neighborhood level. It employed research based design methods to find out how architects can intervene spatially in the publicdomain and hence initiate urban change. It exposed students to tools and methods of collaborative design in complex urban contexts. It addresses the core question:How can architects contribute to city-making processes that are complex and involve intense negotiation, contestation and collaboration between multiple stakeholders? The studio entailes rigorous research using visual / textual data and interaction with representatives from social organizations
Muskurahat|Reimagining community leftover spaces There are several factors that drive the dwellers to take care of spaces and objects around them. But can specific objects degrade the value of a space? Can the same objects be used in a different way to reveal the actual potential of that space? Muskarahat aims at initiating a craft enterprise within the community that emphasizes on the value of discarded objects, through abandoned houses, and hence transforming spaces that have a bad influence on the community as an inspiration for the younger generation.

The whole programme of Muskurahat starts with kids which further influences elders and the cycle continues. It is a pilot project which further extends to other unvalued spaces in the community and hence tries to challenge the larger aim of making the neighbourhood a safer place for all, irrespective of gender or age.In future, even if the maker spaces and sorting spaces does not exist, Muskurahat tries to reveal the potential of abandoned spaces in the community SORTING SPACE FOR KIDS
