MANUNI PATEL COMPARTMENT S4 FOAID 2020

Project Name The design responds to the cold temperate climate of the Himalayan mountains, remoteness of the site as well as aims for resilience to earthquakes and landslides. BASA Tourism Center The tourism center is designed with heavy stone filled gabion walls at the bottom and a light Location wooden structure on top. Materials used are locally sourced and are transported easily via small pickup van. Uttarakhand Wood is preferred because it is a natural resource that can be replenished over time. Mud, which is dug out from cutting and filling the site, was used in plastering, reducing the use of cement. Minimum amount of steel is used which can be resold or recycled. A balance between local knowledge and modern construction techniques is incorporated in order to encourage community participation and ownership. The Tourism Center has a community kitchen and a space to display their local produces, on the lower level. The upper floor houses an exhibition portraying the local heritage and culture of Khirsu along with essential information for tourists. 348

SHAMILA MEERAN & FAISAL VOHRA F+S DESIGNS FOAID 2020

Project Name Petcart Nest is a one-of –a-kind pet resort on the outskirts of Bengaluru. The two-acre property lies amidst open fields and mango orchards. Petcart Nest The design intention was to leverage the natural land contours and have an ecologically Location responsible approach. Besides reviving a dried pond and retaining all the trees on site, we consciously employed natural materials to create built forms that would complement and Bengaluru integrate with the surroundings. The buildings are sited such that the natural vistas of the surroundings remain undisturbed. The material and color palette was kept neutral and earthy to blend in. Bamboo, while being a strong, eco-friendly building material, creates a beautiful permeable mesh which allows the structures to 'breathe' and flushes the interiors with sunlight and ventilation. The comfort of the four-legged guests was paramount and the resort was carefully designed with an environment- friendly approach to allow this. There’s a saying that ‘The greenest building is one that is already built.’ Our approach with Petcart Nest has been to Reduce, Recycle and Rejuvenate. 354

SRIDEVI CHANGALI & ROSIE PAUL MASONS INK FOAID 2020

Project Name The vision the client had for this parcel of land nestled in the urban fabric of the city of Cochin was a built space that would facilitate collaboration and encourage people to come together. The Courtyard The aspect of the brief that was most complex was the fact that the space had to house three diverse functions –a management consultant’s office, an artist’s studio and an architectural Location practice. Apart from designing working spaces for each, there had to be a separate area for public events. Kerala A space where the management consultant would host conventions and seminars; the artist envisioned a space that could transform into an exhibition area to display her artwork and that of lesser known artists, the architectural practice needed a space to host workshops and awareness programmes on sustainable practices which is inherent in the building fabric. This is a project that aims to challenge the notions of mud as a primitive and perishable material. It is a contemporary take on the vernacular architecture of Kerala. It comes away from the unwritten rules of office or public spaces that stress on artificial light & ventilation, and boldly makes a statement through its openness and proximity to nature, hence the name- the Courtyard. 360

Project Name Mass Housing is the need of the hour in the World’s fastest growing city, Bengaluru. Within an urban concrete-jungle, Radiance IRIS seeks to be a green refuge from the ever-growing Radiance IRIS pressures of development. We had to achieve this within the housing market pressures to make the project affordable. Location The Design focusses on creating a sustainable community which simultaneously achieves the Bangalore major challenge of high built-up area and low selling price. Clusters of row-houses interspersed with Pockets of Natural Vegetation, Social spaces and Shared facilities forms the project. Detailed studies and simulations were done to understand how to maximise natural light and ventilation inside each home. Existing trees were mapped and the buildings were planned around them to preserve the native vegetation. Effective Solar-Energy capture and Sensitive Water-management were incorporated from the Design Stage. The project is all set to receive GOLD Certification from the IGBC – Indian Green Building Council under IGBC Green Residential Societies. 366

DISHA BACHAL DEEPAK BACHAL & ASSO. FOAID 2020

Project Name The brief was to build 8 double occupancy individual units, each having its own outdoor space for a resort near Pune. Contain-Within Shipping container is a standard-sized metal box which can be easily transferred between Location different modes of transportation. They also act like legos and can be easily stacked on top of each other. Pune Many of which are discarded every year if they tend to have some dents on their surface making the structure weak for heavy transportation. We thought of recycling these scrap units and transforming them into livable spaces. Besides trendiness, they are very economical having lower construction and maintenance costs as the structure is already ready. Creating two clusters of 4 units each, we could create a larger common area for each cluster from which one can enjoy the view the waterbody in front of the site. Bamboo, an additional element has been introduced for roofing, to decrease heat gain, partitions and internal furniture, also softening the rigid structure of a container. 391
