to the fascinatingly interrelated web of life.
Thus, any serious architect's approach to his architectural design would evolve from his
understanding of life.

• sense of unity and harmony with various natural and man made elements and forces
• Man is being isolated and is missing the meaningful interaction with fellow human

PHILOSOPHY
3. • Shirish Beri is an Indian architect known for his
innovative and sustainable architectural designs. One of
his notable projects is the Laboratory for the
Conservation of Endangered Species (LaCONES) in
Hyderabad, India.
• LaCONES is a state-of-the-art laboratory facility
dedicated to the conservation and research of
endangered species. It is a part of the Centre for Cellular
and Molecular Biology (CCMB), a premier research
institute in India. The facility was designed by Shirish
Beri to provide a conducive environment for scientific
research while being mindful of the ecological and
conservation aspects.
• Beri's design approach for LaCONES focused on
blending the built environment with the natural
surroundings. The architecture seamlessly integrates
with the lush green landscape, creating a harmonious
setting for both researchers and the endangered species
they study. The design incorporates elements of
sustainability, energy efficiency, and functionality.
• The building features large windows and skylights
that maximize natural light and ventilation, reducing the
need for artificial lighting and air conditioning. This not
only enhances energy efficiency but also creates a
pleasant working environment for the researchers. The
layout of the laboratory spaces is carefully planned to
optimize workflow and ensure efficient scientific
research.

4. Additionally, the design incorporates eco-friendly features such as rainwater harvesting, wastewater
treatment systems, and use of recycled materials. These initiatives minimize the environmental
impact of the facility and align with the goal of conservation and sustainability.
The Laboratory for the Conservation of Endangered Species is an excellent example of Shirish Beri's
architectural philosophy, which emphasizes a deep connection with nature, functionality, and
sustainability. Through his design, Beri has created a remarkable facility that supports scientific
research and contributes to the conservation of endangered species in India.
5. 1.Integration with Landscape: Shirish Beri's design focused on blending the built environment with the surrounding
landscape. The architecture of LaCONES incorporates open spaces, courtyards, and gardens that seamlessly
connect with the natural elements. This integration promotes a sense of harmony and enhances the overall aesthetic
appeal.
2.Functional Layout: The layout of LaCONES was meticulously planned to meet the specific requirements of a
laboratory facility. The building comprises different functional zones, including research laboratories, animal holding
areas, veterinary facilities, administrative offices, and support spaces. The arrangement of these zones was optimized
to facilitate efficient workflow, collaboration, and ease of movement.
3.Sustainable Design: Sustainability was a key consideration in the planning of LaCONES. The architecture
incorporates several eco-friendly features and design strategies. These include:
•Passive Design: The building design maximizes the use of natural light and ventilation. Large windows and
skylights allow ample daylight into the interior spaces, reducing the need for artificial lighting. Cross-ventilation
and shading devices help maintain comfortable indoor temperatures.
•Energy Efficiency: The building incorporates energy-efficient lighting systems and equipment. Energy-saving
measures, such as the use of energy-efficient appliances and insulation, were implemented to reduce energy
consumption.
•Water Management: Rainwater harvesting systems were incorporated to capture and store rainwater for various
purposes. The facility also features efficient water fixtures and wastewater treatment systems to minimize water
wastage.
•Use of Sustainable Materials: The construction materials used in LaCONES were selected with sustainability in
mind. Whenever possible, recycled and locally sourced materials were preferred to reduce environmental impact.

Panchgani
• Project-residential school/boarding school campus concept-
creating a healthy balance between free interaction and
disciplined segregation. The sloping site was the basis for the form
development which resulted in a playful built form complying with
the concept. The learning experience was enhanced by the
inclusion of landscaped interaction spaces.
This residential school campus (for 11th and
12th class boys and girls) designed on a slopping site
The learning and living experience of this campus is enriched
because of the landscaped interaction spaces created in and
around the built form.

10. This building is located on the main Pune - Bangalore
highway where vehicles move at around 100 km. per hour.
Thus the perception of this building had to be catchy and
arresting enough to make an impact in those very few
seconds of visibility.
The multi faceted facade, looks different at different times
from different angles because of the multiple reflections.
The sales and the service sections are located on either
side of the entrance driveway with the large workshop at
the back.
On the whole, this entire spatial and functional experience
is a pleasantly attractive one for all the owners, staff,
workers, the customers and the car itself.

Kolhapur
The site is situated on the main Pune – Bengaluru
Highway where high traffic flow is observed. The
challenge that the site imposed was to ‘bring a design that
would impart a dynamic image to an already known
brand’. The façade was designed as such that it looked
different at different times and angles.

inpatients. The design parameters gave rise to the basic shape
of the built form. To address good health with good
environment courtyards and the built spaces were arranged in
an interlacing manner which also created short circulation
linkages.

• The concept for the medical college
situated alongside a teaching hospital was to
create spaces that can enhance learning
possibilities. To implement the concept into
actuality, the building has an entrance on both
ground level as well as the first-floor level
with inviting wide steps. The inside of the
building is pierced with a beautiful circular
skylight with landscaped courtyards, which
creates a breezy ambiance as well as an
interaction space.
