Seagram building Model

As a part of the internal assessment, we made a model of the Seagram Building Designed by Mies van de Rohe and Philip Johnson. 

We studied about the building layout, scale, the style of architecture and the construction techniques.

Building Construction Post Case study Assignment

A fun assignment where we drafted the Construction details of north light truss on our studio floor in live scale. The case study was of a printing factory close to the university campus. 

The assignment was to understand how north light truss is constructed, the different parts and their connection details.

Public Amenities Center 

Design project finalized from the village documentation. According to the data collected there were no Dormitories for the visitors who come to visit the famous temple in the village during the festival time. 

A Public Amenities Center which consists of Dormitories and a restaurant would give shelter to the visitors during festivals and the added facilities would make the visit more comfortable.

Documentation. 

For our third semester design project we documented a village. The history, planning, age of the buildings, people, culture, streets, layouts. By the end of the those three days of documentation we knew everything about the village, from the history to the number of wells the village had. It was such an amazing experience. we documented few very old houses in the village. The plan in the picture above is of a 110 year old house which i documented.

There was so much to learn! The old ways of building construction, use of mud blocks, mud plaster, lime plaster, wooden blocks for the rafters of the roof. All the materials were locally available. 

i also realized the importance of courtyards in the life of people back then. A very common feature in most of the rural houses in India, Which serves as a central gathering place for the family, a space for light to enter and also used for the collection of rain water. 

We later designed a Public Heath Center and a Public Amenities Center for the village from the inference that was drawn after the documentation.

I started doodling by second year of  my architecture course, started out with a compass and a marker, dint know it would turn out to be decent enough to gift someone.

i miss those first year days! when i knew less of the practical stuff. I dint care which form or shape would work better.

Inspiration can come from anywhere! I still get inspired from the small, less important things we see around us everyday. It becomes a big deal deal when i actually use them when i design.
