COMMERCIAL COMPLEX AT GHATKOPAR ,MUMBAI
LOCATION
THE SITE FOR MY PROJECT IS LOCATED IN
GHATKOPAR A COMMERCIAL HUB IN MUMBAI.
THE SITE IS SURROUNDED BY OTHER COMMERCIAL
TOWERS, ALL OF THEM HAVE A RECTANGULAR OR
SQUARE SHAPE.
CONCEPTUAL
SKETCHING AND 3D
THIS PROJECT IS NOT ENTIRELY BASED ON A CONCEPT
BUT IS A MIXTURE OF INSPIRATION, EXPERIMENT OF A
SIMPLE SHAPE BASED ON THE STUDY OF THE
SURROUNDING AND THEN HOW THE FUNCTION
AFFECTS THE DESIGN AND CHANGES MADE TO BEST
SUIT THE FUNCTION. AS ALL THE OTHER STRUCTURES
IN THIS AREA ARE SQUARE OR RECTANGULAR, I ALSO
DECIDED TO USE THE SAME FORM BUT IN A DIFFERENT
WAY.

INSPIRATION:
FALLING WATERS BY
FRANK LLOYD
WRIGHT
FINAL STRUCTUREAN ATTEMPT FOR ENERGY
EFFICIENCY
IN THIS PROJECT I ALSO TRIED TO
EXPERIMENT WITH SOME GREEN
CONCEPTS BY PAYING ATTENTION TO
THE BUILDING COOLING BY USING
TWO METHODS.
1.USING VERTICAL VEGETATED
COMPLEX WALLS (VCW) ON THE
BUILDING.
2. BY USING A FLOOR PIPE
COOLING SYSTEM FOR THE
INTERNAL COOLING.
THAT IS WHY I HAVE NAMED THIS
BUILDING AS "ENVO (ENVIRONMENT)
COMMERCIAL CENTRE" OR IN SHORT

BUILDING COOLING CONCEPT
INSTEAD OF DIRECTLY COOLING THE BUILDING WITH THE HELP OF COLD AIR I HAVE PROPOSED THE USE OF COLD WATER FOR WHICH
CHILLING TOWERS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED .THE COLD WATER CAN BE PASSED THROUGH THE PIPES UNDER THE FLOORING WITH THE
HELP OF PUMPS AND CIRCULATED THROUGH OUT THE BUILDING. COOLING OF AIR DIRECTLY FROM AIR CONDITIONERS IS NOT
GRADUAL AND AIR REMAINS COLD FOR LESS AMOUNT OF TIME . HOWEVER WATER REMAINS COLD FOR MORE AMOUNT OF TIME THUS
KEEPING THE AIR IN CONTACT WITH THE FLOOR, ALSO COLD FOR MORE AMOUNT OF TIME BECAUSE OF WHICH THE CHILLING TOWERS
NEED TO FUNCTION LESS NUMBER OF TIMES AND DURATION THAN DIRECT AIR CONDITIONERS.

HORTICULTURE CENTRE AIM
THE AIM OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO CREATE
A HORTICULTURE CENTER WHICH
INCLUDED A COMMERCIAL AREA ALONG
WITH RESEARCH CENTERS TOGETHER WITH
STUDY AND ACCOMMODATION FACILITIES
FOR PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS AND
WORKERS.
LOCATION
THE SITE GIVEN TO US IS
LOCATED IN A TOWN
NAMED SHIRDHON AT NAVI
MUMBAI, MAHARASHTRA,
INDIA.
SITE
THE SITE GIVEN TO US IS APT
FOR THIS PROJECT WITH A
RIVER AT THE SOUTH EAST,
FLAT GROUNDS AT THE
CENTRE AND CONTOURS
TOWARDS THE NORTH
WEST
CONCEPT
BEING A HORTICULTURE CENTER I HAD DECIDED TO GIVE THE STRUCTURES
A RUSTIC LOOK AND CREATE LEVELS AND SPACES FOR COMMERCIAL FLORAL
DISPLAYS. ALONG WITH THAT I HAVE TRIED TO USE THE CONTOURS AND
AT THE SAME TIME I HAVE TRIED TO DESIGN THE LAB ( WHITE STRUCTURE) IN
SUCH A WAY SO AS TO MAKE IT BLEND WITH THE REMAINING STRUCTURES.

MODEL AND 3D IMAGES TO GET AN OVERVIEW OF
THE DESIGN
GREEN ROOF CONCEPT
I ALSO DECIDED TO USE THE CONCEPT
OF GREEN ROOFING ON THE
MEMBRANE STRUCTURE . GREEN ROOFS
OR LIVING ROOFS HAVE MANY
ADVANTAGES LIKE COOLING THE
STRUCTURE AND ABSORBING RAIN

DESIGN DISSERTATION: CENTRAL JAIL (CORRECTION CENTRE)
PRISONS IN INDIA ARE DONOT EXACTLY ACT AS A PLACE OF CONTEMP0LATION FOR MOST PRISONERS BECAUSE OF POOR
INFRASTRUCTURE AND PLANNING. MORE OVER ALL MOST ALL THE PRISONS BUILT IN INDIA ARE FROM THE PRE-INDEPENDENCE PERIOD.
HENCE I WANTED TO MAKE A NEW PRISON WITH BETTER FACILITIES AND TO HAVE AN INFRASTRUCTURE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN
EXISTING PRISONS
RESEARCH
I HAD DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ABOUT
PRISONS AND ALSO HAD AN OPPORTUNITY
TO MEET WITH THE JAILER AND SOME
INMATES FROM ALIPORE JAIL IN INDIA, WHO
HAD COME OUT ON PAROLE TO GIVE A
DANCE PERFORMANCE IN MUMBAI. THROUGH
MY RESEARCH ALONG WITH VARIOUS DESIGN
ASPECTS I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THAT THE
PRISONERS, IN MAXIMUM CASES HAD
COMMITTED CRIME OUT OF NECESSITY AND
ALMOST ALL OF THEM ARE READY TO
CHANGE, IF GIVEN, A CONDUCIVE
ENVIRONMENT.
LOCATION
THE SITE IS LOCATED AT MALSHEJ
GHAT ALONG THE NH-222
HIGHWAY IN A VALLEY. THE MAIN
REASONS FOR THE SELECTION OF
THIS SITE ARE:
AS IT IS A CORRECTION
CENTRE A SERENE PLACE
AWAY FROM CITY IS NEEDED
SHOULD HAVE TERRAIN WHICH
WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR
INMATES TO ESCAPE
THE SITE AS A WHOLE HAS
CONTOURS AND IS
GENERALLY DRY AND ARID,
ONLY ACCESS IS THROUGH
THE NH-222 HIGHWAY

DESIGN
MY CENTRAL PRISON IS SPECIFICALLY TO BE USED AS A CORRECTION CENTRE. PROVISION OF VARIOUS KINDS OF ACTIVITIES FOR
THE PRISONERS LIKE AGRICULTURE , PERFORMING ARTS, SPORTS SUCH AS FOOT BALL, BASKET BALL , AND RACE TRACK ALONG
WITH LECTURE HALLS FOR STUDYING AND SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. THE ABOVE ILLUSTRATIONS ARE ONE
OF MY FIRST CONCEPTUAL ATTEMPTS TO DESIGN IN THIS SITE. THE MAIN DESIGN PRINCIPLE WAS ABOUT USING A SHAPE PARTICULARLY
AN OCTAGON FOR THE STRUCTURES. BASIC AIM IN THIS DESIGN WAS TO TRY TO REDUCE BLIND SPOTS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE
CONCEPT 1.
MY FIRST INTENTION FOR DESIGNING WAS TO TO GIVE
A BRUTALISTIC LOOK TO THE STRUCTURES. I SOLELY
WANTED TO CHANGE THE FORM OF THE PRISON
WITHOUT AFFECTING ITS FUNCTION.

MY SECOND CONCEPTUAL DESIGN WAS TO PLACE THE STRUCTURES IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THEY
MERGE WITH THE CONTOUR ITSELF LEAVING THE PRISON BLOCKS AS THE FOCAL POINT.
FINAL CONCEPT
FINALLY AFTER STUDYING AND
EXPERIMENTING WITH MANY
OTHER CONCEPTS ESPECIALLY
THE PENAPTICON CONCEPT I
HAVE ALMOST DEVELOPED MY

The Faculty Medal is an award, first instituted in 2006, by the faculty of Sir JJ College of Architecture to be given to the best design from a competition
organized by the college. The Architectural Design Competition is for participation by all students in the college. The themes of the design competition
shall address pressing urban, social and civic issues in the city of Mumbai.Each entry is intended to generate alternatives that can transform the city
through design excellence. The best entries of the competition are intended to be put on display to the city at large
Spaces between Buildings: Stitching Mumbai together
Aim: The aim is to adapt and use leftover spaces between buildings in
Mumbai for public purposes and amenities.
Goals of the Design:
The redesign/urban insert using spaces between
existing buildings should create a vibrant space for educational,
recreational, community or other useful public activities.
The proposed projects should have a positive social and
cultural impact on the target community.
social tool, which applied thoughtfully, has the power to shape
human cultural and economic activity.
The final design should be seamless between the
existing built form and the new insertions
Site:
The design proposal should first introduce the local context. This
could be any neighborhood, anywhere in Mumbai. One
neighborhood is not favored over another, recognizing the fact
that a middle-class context can be as deprived as poor
neighborhoods when it comes to social infrastructure.
Design Guidelines:
Find a relevant site in Mumbai that is a leftover space between two existing buildings (alleys, house
gullies, setbacks, ignored spaces) that is around 3.0 to 3.5 meters wide. Any length longer than the width
is acceptable. The site should be accessible from a public road or footpath.
Design an architectural insert that will revitalize the surroundings as well as provide a vital urban amenity.
The insert should be accessible by public, but can be of specific benefit to the immediate neighborhood.
Your design should be contemporary and inspiring. Barrier free environments and those with a minimal
dependence on energy consumption will be valued as design entries.

30. COMPETITION
FACULTY MEDAL: SOCIAL SPACE FOR STUDENTS
IN MUMBAI AND NAVI MUMBAI IT IS A VERY COMMON THING TO SEE SCHOOL CHILDREN USING
FOOTPATHS , STREETS OR BUS STOPS AND RAILWAY STATIONS AS THEIR PLACE OF FUN AND FROLIC AS WELL
AS FOR STUDYING. THE SITE THAT I HAVE SELECTED IS LOCATED IN THE VASHI GAOTHAN AREA IN NAVI
MUMBAI. THIS AREA IS BASICALLY A SMALL SETTLEMENT INSIDE THE VASHI CITY LIMITS AND CONSISTS OF G TO
G+4 STRUCTURES. THE RESIDENTS OF THIS AREA ARE TENANTS AND SUB TENANTS RESULTING IN VERY LITTLE
OR NO PLACE FOR CHILDREN AND STUDENTS TO INTERACT AND STUDY AT HOME. MORE OVER LACK OF
PLAY GROUNDS AND OPEN SPACES IN THIS AREA HAS RESULTED IN CHILDREN USING STREETS FOR STUDIES
AND INTERACTION.
THE SITE
THE SELECTED SITE IS MARKED IN RED. THIS SITE IS A SPACE BETWEEN TWO BUILDINGS WHICH HAS A
WIDTH OF 3M AT THE ENTRANCE AND INCREASES TO 3.4M. BECAUSE THE WIDTH OF THE SITE IS LESS AND
TIGHT, I HAVE USED THE CONCEPT OF RAMPS AND FLAT SPACES TO BE
CONSTRUCTED BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS. THE STRUCTURE PROPOSED IS A
STEEL STRUCTURE WITH I-SECTIONS (ISMB 250) AS SUPPORTING MEMBERS.
ALL THE RAMPS AND FLAT
SPACES ARE GOING TO BE
COVERED WITH ARTIFICIAL
TURF SO THAT CHILDREN
CAN EASILY SIT ON THEM.

32. WORK EXPERIENCE: I AM CURRENTLY WORKING WITH ARCHITECT
MANOJ VIJAN AND ASSOCIATES AND HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN MANY PROJECTS
WITH THIS FIRM. ONE OF THE PROJECTS IN WHICH I AM DEEPLY INVOLVED
RIGHT FROM THE DESIGN LEVEL IS " UNIVERSAL HIGH SCHOOL AURANGABAD"
WHICH IS CURRENTLY BEING BUILT AT T-1 INDUSTRIAL AREA, CHIKALTHANA,
AURANGABAD, INDIA.
THE CLIENT AND CONCEPT: THE CLIENT HERE IS THE
OWNER OF A NUMBER OF SCHOOLS IN MAHARASHTRA, MOST
OF THEM DESIGNED BY US. HE WANTED THE SCHOOL TO HAVE
AN INTERNATIONAL LOOK BUT AT THE SAME TIME BLEND
WITH THE CONSERVATIVE ARCHITECTURE OF AURANGABAD.
