This site has the great potential of system thinking due to its size. The major three potentials at the site are the presence of green, blue and grey systems. Since this is institution area therefore grey. In the design proposal: green blue grey (public space) and energy have been taken as primary drivers whereas food is a secondary driver.

WATER CONNECTIONConcept of design is based on reflec-tions made by two canals present on the site.

SITE ANALYSIS

GREEN CONNECTIONThe site lies between two bio diversity zones. Therefore, it acts as a bridge be-tween the two.

PUBLIC PEDESTRIAN AXISThe site has a good scope for better padestrian connectivity. Also it is con-nected to the two institutionals nearby and mrt station connects all of them.

PRIVATE ZONEPrivate zone is dedicated to the school area. In this project, public and private spaces are treated well which contrib-utes to the concept of this project.

QILIAN SENSITIVE VERTICAL VILLAGESENVISIONING THE BAOSHAN (SHANGHAI) OF TOMORROW (ACADEMIC PROJECT) I.S.D

The area is experiencing radical transformation causing Urban Dis-ruption. The disappearance of settlements & industries has resulted in loss of the identity. The B.A.U resettlement process in the area doesn’t address the loss of the quality of life which was there in these settle-ments. The strategies aim at restoring the existing ecology through Regenerative Landscape and Social Cohesion. The Qilian Vertical Village transforms the Mega block into Compact Mixed-Use Islands organized by Open Block system.

REPL KNOWLEDGE PARK, NOIDA,INDIASUSTAINABLE OFFICE BUILDING

REPL new headquarters will stand out as a spearhead project in sus-tainable design in an urban context. The objective of the project is to exceed today’s standards for green building. The organization of the office spaces, the slightly sloping facades provide the building with ample daylight and the selection of healthy, sustainable mate-rials which demonstrate that an open, healthy working environment is of high priority to REPL. Green elements like horizontal green ramps, green balconies and terrace gardens are introduced in the design to reduce the carbon footprint of the building.

BANGKOK FASHION HUB COMPETITION

Since the Agreement to Form an Integrated ASEAN Economic Commu-nity into a Single Market, Malaysia, The Philippines, Singapore, Indone-sia and Thailand Have Been Attempting to Position Themselves as The ASE-AN Fashion Capital. With No Clear Front-Runner Thailand, and in Particular Bangkok, Have A Real Chance Of Claiming The Title Despite The Fierce Competition. The Building Aims to Strike Global Appeal With Traditional Relevance. Its Uniqueness Comes From The Petal Motif, Which Identifies With The Traditional Thai Roof. The Perforated Bottom Is Influenced From A Cut Pattern To Give The Fabric Texture. This Gives Ample Shading and Daylight Control To Inner Spaces. Its Unique Petal Form Creates A Strong Visual Impact And Has Embedded as A Landmark Structure in The City.The skin of the building breathes and responds to the local climate. The texture emanates from the scales of the Thai Dragon.

CHALLANGESWind flow not good in narrow street and high density volumeand lack of open space

FORM EVOLUTIONThe curvilinear form responds to the prevalent wind direction enveloping it and plaza space for interaction of open space with human

DAYLIGHT DESIGNThe terraces and sky gardens are provided on the southern facade to block the interior spaces from direct sun

SKY GARDENSWind Tunnel effect is created by virtue of using the green facade and sky gardens which also results in improving the indoor air quality

PLANNING STRATEGYThe site is approached through narrow pedestrian walk-way. For a building of this nature,it was imperative to create open spaces that can act like a Plaza that opens up to the pedestrian and vehicular movement. The building is planned such that the ground level is used for public spaces and urban plaza. The powerful form rises above from the ground and has stunning impact on the skyline. The structure is kept simple and the design is easy to implement from cost to construction viewpoint. The division of functions forms vertical complexes. Various functions are clustered in 3-4 storeys linked together by voids and connecting staircases.

MH17 MEMORIAL + PARK COMPETITION

An international open ideas competition for young architects was ini-tiated to remember and honour victims of the MH17 tragedy, which has happened over the skies of Ukraine. This man-made tragedy has influenced thousands of lives in direct or indirect manner across the entire world. This competition aimed to explore and research pos-sible themes and directions of the Memorial representation and its integration into the public spaceRather than developing a simulacrum of existing urban parks within Amsterdam, the memorial atoll engages the site in a meaningful way and proposes a new kind of public space for the city.

FLIGHT PATH The flight path mapping creates the first point of incision on the proposed site to create a water space that culminates in the space of memory.

APPROPRIATING FUTUREThe space of memory is expressed by a spiralling water space. the forest of prayer flags is translated into a grid of 293 vertical wind turbines in memory of the victims.both elements harnessing en-ergy for the city help structure an urban park around them.

SPACE OF MEMORYThe space of memory emerges in loca-tion from the conjectured site of crash with respect to the point where the flight departed from its path. further the space is formed by spatializing “17”.

IN LOW TIDE The site build on 15 metre deep sea bed therefore in full day there are high tide and low tide comes. so we design site like if there are low tide people can use and enjoy full site.

SPACE OF PRAYERSA collective space inspired by the forest of prayer flags that in buddhist practice send prayers in the wind and in the pro-cess heal.

IN HIGH TIDESite is design in multiple levels. if high tide comes 40 % site into the water and 60 % site people can use and enjoy the multi-ple level spaces.
