Mesmerizing Pavilions: A Celebration of Fluidic Design

🌟 Mesmerizing Pavilions: A Celebration of Fluidic Design 🌟 ✨ As an architect, I find endless inspiration in the exploration of design. It’s like a symphony where creativity knows no boundaries, where imagination dances freely, and where pavilions take shape in the most fluidic forms. Today, I am delighted to share with you a glimpse into my design exploration exercise – a collection of pavilions that grace the serene waters of a beautiful lake. 🌊✨ 🌙 When the evening sun bids farewell and twilight’s embrace unfolds, a breathtaking spectacle unveils itself. The gentle ripples on the lake’s surface mirror the heavens above, while the pavilions become beacons of illumination, casting enchanting hues that blend seamlessly with the ethereal surroundings. A symphony of light and water intertwines, painting a mesmerizing tableau that captivates the soul and ignites the imagination. ✨🎨 ✨ These pavilions, born from the realm of possibilities, are not bound by the constraints of reality. They represent the power of dreaming beyond the confines of ongoing projects, reminding us to embrace the vast expanse of our creative minds. Let us revel in the beauty of design exploration and nourish our spirits with the magic of imagination. Together, let us celebrate the fluidic dance of architecture and the infinite possibilities it holds. 🏰💫

Indoor Landscaped Courtyards in Modern Houses 🌿🏠

Exploring Boundless Designs: Indoor Landscaped Courtyards in Modern Houses 🌿🏠

As an architect with an insatiable passion for design, I am constantly on the lookout for fresh inspiration. Recently, during my visit to South India, I was captivated by the majestic homes boasting expansive courtyards. This experience sparked my imagination, leading me to ponder the possibilities of incorporating beautifully landscaped indoor courtyards into modern houses.

Imagine stepping into a modern home, greeted not just by stylish interiors, but also by an oasis of greenery nestled right at the heart of the living space. Indoor landscaped courtyards offer an extraordinary fusion of nature and contemporary design, creating a serene retreat within the confines of our bustling urban lifestyles. These enchanting spaces invite natural light to dance playfully across lush foliage, creating a seamless connection between the outdoors and indoors.

By embracing the concept of indoor courtyards, architects and interior designers can introduce an element of tranquility, while enhancing the aesthetic appeal and functionality of modern homes. From towering palms and cascading water features to carefully curated gardens and intricately designed pathways, the possibilities are endless. Let’s push the boundaries of our imagination and explore these hypothetical designs that bring the outdoors in, blurring the lines between architecture, interior design, and the natural world.

Indo‐Pak Partition Memorial Complex, At Wagah (Pakistan) – Attari (India) Border: A hypothetical architectural thesis for Partition Memorial Complex - A Cross Border Platform for Communication

After much deliberation, I have finally published my Architectural Thesis “Indo‐Pak Partition Memorial Complex, At Wagah (Pakistan) – Attari (India) Border: A hypothetical architectural thesis for Partition Memorial Complex – A Cross Border Platform for Communication” on Amazon – Kindle. It is available both as an e-book and as a Paperback copy across most countries.

        Introduction

The Partition is one of the deepest wounds in India. It was the creation of boundaries between regions that culturally flowed into each other. Migration of a stunning, displacement of masses and the cruel and ruthless bloodshed of innumerable citizens are the circumstances that constitute this great human tragedy. The tragedies associated with The Partition are suffered by both nations (some may argue that it was for common good), but no one can challenge the tragedy suffered by those 12 million people who migrated during the partition and millions who lost their lives, families, homes, and properties. And what is really strange is that there is not a single Partition Memorial in India or Pakistan.

Partition was something that was shared together by India and Pakistan, therefore The Partition becomes the genesis of this project. The proposal of a Joint Partition Memorial is an extension to the existing Ceremonial Parade which happens every evening throughout the year at the Wagah-Attari Border, which is a Joint Check Post. Thousands of people come from India and Pakistan to see this parade performed by Indian and Pakistani soldiers, which lasts for approximately 25 minutes. This proposal provides an opportunity for visitors to spend more time at the complex.

Observing the complicated relationship between India and Pakistan,

If we HOPE —> For PEACE —> Then it is only possible through COMMUNICATION

The purpose of this sort of institution is to create a PLATFORM for COMMUNICATION between the citizens of India and Pakistan. The idea is to ‘Know and Understand’ each other through communicative activities. Apart from the communication, this project aims at creating SHARED SPACES across the Border and exploring the medium of architecture to make an IMPACT.

Summarizing the purpose of this proposal, ‘Taking the remembrance of Partition in focus, this complex creates a Platform for Communication, which Hopes for a Peaceful future’

Challenges/Constraints/Opportunities

The biggest challenge with this Thesis Project is to bring people of two nations together, two nations that have predominantly remained in a state of conflict for the past 60 years. Another challenge is to create a transition from the Calm and Quiet setting of the landscape to a very Complex space situated at the underground level.

A major constraint here is that Indians and Pakistanis are apparently mixing with each other, but physically they are never in contact.

There is a great opportunity for the people of India and Pakistan to understand and communicate with each other through various mediums, with the Partition Memorial Complex as their platform. This institution could become a monument of learning, forgiving, and loving. The project is aiming to create Hope for Peace.

  6. Built in appliances

Built in oven and microwave ensure a smooth finish to the kitchen counters and cabinets. By choosing similar color tones, you can help make your kitchen look very modern and chic.

  7. Kitchen hood

  12. Vacuum Cleaner

Vacuum cleaners have cleaned our homes for over a century. But modern vacuum cleaners are much more advanced and efficient!

  13. Air Purifier

An air purifier helps trap dust before it has the chance to settle, reducing build-up and leaving you with less to clean. Air purifiers remove up to 99 percent of airborne bacteria.

  14. Security System

Security systems protect the members of your family from burglars and intruders. In typical situations, the mere presence of a security system would ward off burglars and intruders. Advanced systems are connected with you over wireless network and can trigger alarm in your phone in case of any intrusion!

  With fast paced technology, it is always logical to invest in futuristic products – since appliances & equipment based on old technology may get redundant very quickly. We hope that this list helps you in selecting relevant Appliances & Equipment for upgrading your home!

Japanese Zen Gardens | Concept & Photo Gallery

Japanese Zen gardens are traditional gardens whose designs are accompanied by Japanese aesthetics and philosophical ideas, avoid artificial ornamentation, and highlight the natural landscape. Plants and worn, aged materials are generally used by Japanese garden designers to suggest an ancient and faraway natural landscape, and to express the fragility of existence as well as time’s unstoppable advance.

Elements of Japanese Gardens:

Water – Water has a place of choice among the components of a Japanese garden. It contributes to the expression of nature and symbolizes renewal, calm, wonder and continuity in the hereafter. In a Sansui Japanese garden, that is, one containing elevations, various degrees are provided so that water can circulate. Water is found in many forms. It accumulates in the ponds, runs in the streams or tumbles in the cascades. The clear, circulating water contributes to keeping the air fresh throughout the summer. The ponds and the cascades are given a precise orientation with respect to the sun to determine how it will be reflected by the water.

Stones – Stones are given special attention in Eastern philosophy. A symbol of duration and of the omnipresence of the forces of the nature, they anchor the garden to the ground and give it its specific personality. The stones are laid out in accordance with strict rules, depending on their shapes and sizes; they often are twinned by pairs and by style contrast (a male rock opposed to a female rock). Stones create relief, produce hills and valleys giving birth to cascades, streams and ponds. The type of stone to use is one of the most important element, in the design of a Japanese garden.

The lantern – With the advent of the tea ceremony, the lantern became a leading element in the layout of a Japanese garden. Originally intended to guide the visitors during nocturnal celebrations, its light was also considered as the light of knowledge clearing away the clouds of ignorance. Sculptured in stone, the Yukimi-gata lantern, or snow lantern, which we can admire here is of current use. Placed near water it provides an architectural element which contrasts with the natural components of the garden.

Bridges – Bridges are privileged sites in a Japanese garden, where one will linger and take in the beauty of the landscape, watch the carps swimming in their watery elements, and enjoy the softness of the breeze. Bridges may be built of wood, bamboo, earth or stone. Whether they are rounded, arc-shaped or in zigzags, they always remain in harmony with the surrounding nature.

Plants – The Japanese show a natural ability to interpret the charm of plants and flowers in order to express their joys and pains. Their communion with nature manifests itself through an elaborate symbolism and that is why their interest for the plant realm has become a real passion.

Koi Carps – Japan is a country where a large population leaves little land available for flower gardens. The Japanese, therefore, have found places to grow living flowers, the colored carps. They appeared in Japan many centuries ago and the Japanese have crossbred them for over 100 years, producing carps of high value. Contests are held and the carps are judged according to the number of spots, variety of colors, patterns on their bodies and types of scales. Indispensable inhabitants in the pond of any Japanese garden, carp bring a flash of colour to the shallow waters. These “living flowers” are very popular in Japan, and are even entered in competitions, where they are judged on their colours and patterns and the quality of their scales. Carps can live for up to 50 years. In Japanese culture, they are a symbol of strength and perseverance.

Best of Architectural Photography | 66 mind blowing photos

Architectural photography is the photographing of buildings and similar structures that are both aesthetically pleasing and accurate representations of their subjects. Architectural photographers are usually skilled in the use of specialized techniques and cameras.

A tenet of architectural photography is the use of perspective control, with an emphasis on vertical lines that are non-converging (parallel). This is achieved by positioning the focal plane of the camera at so that it is perpendicular to the ground, regardless of the elevation of the camera eye. This result can be achieved by the use of view cameras, tilt/shift lenses, or post-processing.

Traditionally, view cameras have been used for architectural photography as they allow for the lens to be tilted or shifted relative to the film plane. This allows for control of perspective, as well as a variety of creative possibilities.

In a similar fashion to landscape photography, a deep depth of field is usually employed so that both the foreground and background (to infinity) are in sharp focus.

More recently, digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras have been used in the field of architectural photography. These cameras also employ detachable, tilt-shift lenses of varying (usually fixed) focal lengths.

My Sketches

Sketching is a powerful design development process to use because it helps in exploration of the best ideas and solutions to a design problem. Architectural sketches are all about communicating ideas, whether it is solving initial design problems or working through ideas and details. With the advancement of technology, architecture has moved into the digital world. However, sketching will always remain an important part of the design and development process – because the connection of mind with pencil and paper is still unbeatable!!

Home Interior Design & Renovation - A step by step practical guide from Design to Execution for DIY Projects

You want to renovate your home and have been endlessly browsing through images on Pinterest. You have saved a lot of these images and possibly got lucky to find few free ebooks online which claim to tell you about Interior Design. But are you still not sure how to move forward?

'Home Interior Design & Renovation' is a very widely discussed topic, but most of the free e-books and blogs found online on Home Interior Design simply offer a collection of attractive images! However, if you are planning to take up the project of your own Home Interior Design without any prior experience or formal knowledge, then you have to look above and beyond these pretty pictures!

Any Interior (or Architectural) project requires a very intricate planning and execution process. Many people (I know of) have a collection of photos based on which they initiate their projects - but they very often get stuck mid-way. Why, because they thought that just reference image is good enough for them to successfully complete their projects.

Being a professional designer, I have always tried to develop a structured planning & execution process that is required for Interior Projects. And over the past 10 years of my professional experience, I had to unlearn and relearn a lot of concepts that we were taught in the design school (Click Here to view my Portfolio)!!

I am glad to announce that I have recently written a book on

'Home Interior Design & Renovation : A step by step practical guide from Design to Execution for DIY Projects'

which has been exclusively published on Kindle and is available on Amazon!!

HOME INTERIOR DESIGN & RENOVATION:

A step by step practical guide from Design to Execution of 'DIY' Projects! 

[Kindle Edition]

(Click Here to Look Inside)

This book on ‘Home Interior Design & Renovation’, is an attempt to guide the homeowners about the entire process of renovation (or makeover) - from Design to Execution! The book has been written while focusing on homeowners who have no (or very little) prior experience of Home Renovation, therefore touches on some very fundamental points.

This book will break down in entire process of Design & Project Execution into small sections, which will give a complete walk-through of the complete process of Interior renovation. Apart from sharing Interior Design Concepts via reference images, this book also contains numerous Technical Working Drawings for reader’s reference. The book has been divided into following sections :

The Ultimate Guide to Paint Finish | Know your style

Every once in a while we decide to redecorate our homes, and during the process of redecoration we generally come across a situation where we are not able to decide the paint color. Once we narrow down the paint shade, we often struggle with the decision on the ideal combination of Paint Finish. Remember, choosing the wrong type of paint finish could mean a do-over that costs twice as much.

  This article will share various kinds of Paint Finishes available in the market and will also help you select the right one for your DIY project (Read more: 17 DIY Home Decor Tips)!

  Matte paint FINISH

Matte paint finish has the least amount of shine. Because it doesn’t reflect light, it’s the best choice to hide any imperfections like bumps or small cracks on walls. It also goes on smoother over rough surfaces, so it’s a good option for textured walls. Keep in mind, flat paint a little harder to keep clean, so it’s not recommended for high traffic areas like the kitchen or bathroom.

  Matte-enamel paint FINISH

  As the name suggests, matte-enamel paint finish is very similar to matte. Just like the option above, it comes with a flat finish and little-to-no shine. However, this finish comes with one more added benefit. The chemical makeup of matte-enamel paint has been altered slightly so that a bit of film forms on the surface as it dries, making it easier to clean.

  The extra durability of matte-enamel paint finish makes it an especially good fit for high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms. If you’re looking for these paints at a local home improvement store, they will most likely be labeled as “washable,” owing to the fact that they’ll stand up to a light scrubbing with mild soap and water.

  Eggshell paint FINISH

  You can’t really go wrong with eggshell paint finish on your walls. Sometimes called satin finish, eggshell has slightly more luster than a flat finish, but you won’t be left with shiny walls. It also resists stains better than flat and can be wiped with a wet rag. Eggshell finishes are often used in bathrooms, kitchens, kids’ rooms, and other high-traffic areas.

  Satin paint FINISH

  This silky, smooth paint finish actually retains its pearl-like sheen when dry. A satin finish reflects more light than matte and stands up well to washing. Use in high-traffic areas such as bathrooms, the kitchen and a kid’s room as well as on trim and molding throughout the house. However, satin paint finish does not hide imperfections in surface or application; any touch ups will stand out.

  Semi-gloss paint FINISH

Semi-gloss paint is similar to satin paint finish. However, the extra sheen guarantees that more light bounces off, making the shade you choose appear darker than it would with a satin finish. Again, semi-gloss finishes are a good choice for any rooms with walls that need to be frequently cleaned (heads up, parents with kids who like to draw on the walls). The shine of semi-gloss also makes it a perfect fit for any individual design elements that you want to emphasize. Consider using it for things like kitchen cabinets, fireplace mantels or banisters.

  Gloss paint FINISH

Reserve gloss paint finish for window and door trim. It’s also a great choice for furniture, because of its hard and shiny finish. Want a glam look? Try using glossy paint on the walls!

    Tips For Choosing the Right Sheen

If your paint color is dark and rich but you don’t want a super shiny effect, step down at least one level on the sheen scale. That’s because the darker and richer the paint color is, the more colorant it has, which boosts sheen. Ditto if you’re painting a large, sun-washed, or imperfect wall. The higher the sheen, the more defects will show.

It’s perfectly fine to mix a few types of finishes within the same room. While you’ll probably want to keep your walls a little more on the matte side, you can add in some high-gloss finishes on furniture, and semi-gloss finishes on accents like doors and trim.

  We hope that this article clarifies the fundamentals of Paint Finishes and helps you choose the right one!
