Auroville, City of dawn is located in state of Tamil Nadu, India, near Pondicherry in South India. .Auroville was founded as a project on experimental basis of the ‘Sri Arbindo Society’ on Wednesday 28 February 1968. The basic idea originated from Mirra Alfassa ‘The Mother ‘who was spiritually related to India.
Ma envisaged Auroville as an international township for 50,000 residents on the shape of a flower. Architect Roger Anger refined the planning and designed it in shape of Universe.He placed Matrimandir at the center of this city.
Mary Alfassa in her first message regarding the town stated that, "Auroville is meant to be a universal town where men and women of al countries are able to live in peace and progressive harmony, above all creeds, all politics and all nationalities”

connection to habitat, sustainability in interior design, Architecture: The design strategies found in “Connection to Habitat” address sustainability through an architectural correlation with a regional definition of place.
The determination of a regional condition is geographic but broadly scaled, whether drawn from solar angles at a particular latitude, local meteorological conditions, or a specific architectural vernacular.
In each case, the habitat maintains a close relationship with its external environment by adapting to and learning from its locality.
The differences between various climactic and cultural contexts is not emphasized here so much as the variety of the methods attuned to regional conditions, since these residences are, in fact, all located in the northern and southern temperate zones.

Lawrence Wilfred "Laurie" Baker (2 March 1917 – 1 April 2007) was a British-born Indian architect, renowned for his initiatives in cost-effective energy-efficient architecture and designs that maximized space, ventilation and light and maintained an uncluttered yet striking aesthetic sensibility. Influenced by Mahatma Gandhi and his own experiences in the remote Himalayas, he promoted the revival of regional building practices and use of local materials; and combined this with a design philosophy that emphasized a responsible and prudent use of resources and energy. He was a pioneer of sustainable architecture as well as organic architecture, incorporating in his designs even in the late 1960s, concepts such as rain-water harvesting, minimizing usage of energy-inefficient building materials, minimizing damage to the building site and seamlessly merging with the surroundings. Due to his social and humanitarian efforts to bring architecture and design to the common man, his honest use of materials, his belief in simplicity in design and in life, and his staunch Quaker belief in non-violence, he has been called the "Gandhi of architecture".[1]
He moved to India in 1945 in part as an architect associated with a leprosy mission and continued to live and work in India for over 50 years. He became an Indian citizen in 1989 and resided in Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Kerala from 1969 and served as the Director of COSTFORD (Centre of Science and Technology for Rural Development), an organisation to promote low-cost housing.Baker was born into a staunch Methodist family, the youngest son of Birmingham Gas Department's chief accountant, Charles Frederick Baker and Millie Baker. His early schooling was at King Edwards Grammar School. His elder brothers, Leonard and Norman studied law, and he had a sister, Edna who was the oldest of them all. In his teens Baker began to question what religion meant to him and decided to become a Quaker, since it was closer to what he believed in. Baker studied architecture at Birmingham Institute of Art and Design, Birmingham, and graduated in 1937, aged 20, in a period of political unrest in Europe.Throughout his practice, Baker developed a signature style in designing and building low cost, high quality, beautiful homes, with a great portion of his work suited to or built for lower-middle to lower class clients. He derived creatively from pre-existing local culture and building traditions while keeping his designs minimal with judicious and frugal use of resources.[13] [14] His buildings tend to emphasise prolific – at times virtuosic – masonry construction, instilling privacy and evoking history with brick jali walls, a perforated brick screen which invites a natural air flow to cool the buildings' interior, in addition to creating intricate patterns of light and shadow. Another significant Baker feature is irregular, pyramid-like structures on roofs, with one side left open and tilting into the wind. Baker's designs
Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

4. MALLIKARJUN
RESIDENCE
Built on a plot of 40’ x 60’ in an
upcoming area in Bangalore, India, this
house for a successful young
entrepreneur reacts positively to the
emerging life style with all the confusions
of present day Bangalore: part traditional
part contemporary, conservative in some
respects and forward looking in others
and emerging social habits and hobbies .
It is an inward looking compact 4
bedroom house with modern
conveniences and protection and privacy
from nuisances of its urban milieu. All
heating and ventilation is natural,
materials local, and the design fully
embraces available traditional artisan
skills. The walls are largely load bearing
with bricks and local hand cut stones and
roof of concrete filler slabs and vaults
with hollow clay blocks. Use of wood,
steel, glass and vitrified ceramics along
with the internal angles and volumes and
merging of green patches in living areas
and patches of sunlight filtering in
through punctures in the roof add the
traditional warmth as well as a
contemporary feel.
8. HEGDE
HOUSE,
MYSORE
This 3200 sq. ft house was designed
for a former Vice Chancellor of
Mysore University on a site of 50’ x
80’. Small patches of three green
courtyards were carved out of the
site to be accessed from living and
dining rooms. The roof is made of
hollow clay block vaulting and brick
doming with out centering. A wood
bridge over the living connects the
front and rear rooms in the first
floor. Sky lighting is used with
advantage. The house incorporates
rain water harvesting and solar
water heating.

Location: Vidyaranyapuram,
Mysore
A choultry is used variously as a
marriage hall,party hall and
lodge and recently for
exhibitions,sales and even
conferences,thus the onus has
always been on a functional
agenda.As a commercial
type,the onus was on the
maximum of efficiency and not
on social,cultural and other
generators of form.The firm
attempted to question this
functionalist bias.
14. The plan configured into
two intersecting circles
along the east west
diagonal of the site
allowing the largest
possible space for
auditorium. The space
developed as two slightly
elliptical cones placed at 30
degrees and 60-degree of
axes tilts and intersecting in
the middle. This generated
a sectional profile
conducive to good
acoustics. The cones
define the space into two
sections, one highlighting
the front part and stage
and the other, the rear and
mezzanine.
15. Semantically, it may signify
the union of two (boy and
girl or two families) or
interaction of two segments
(panellist and audience). The
cones with skylights and
vents on top of each also
could function as chimneys
allowing hot air to rise and
thus generate a vertical draft
of air. The skylights also
will enliven and enhance the
lighting and the general
ambience. They could also
provide interesting ceiling
pattern making one to look
up towards sky while
entering and add to a
solemn spatial experience.

21. This is a modest size building in
a small site in a higher income
locality in Mysore City.
Built in 1985-1989 with path
breaking techniques of
Stabilized Mud Blocks and filler
slab roofs as well as uncommon
spatial sequence and openings
all responding to the smallness
of the site and the local
moderate climate.
Perched upon eight columns,
this small house for a young
family at a tight budget was
designed responding to hot
months.
The double pitched roof was a
response to the form of houses
found around in the traditional
rural Mysore.
22. SITE PLAN
A coverage of about 100 sq.m
was possible.
Leaving larger area of Ground
Floor unbuilt for landscape,
composting, storage and vehicle
parking as well as children's'
play, this house when built for
two working parents and two
school going children, tried to
fit in the locality and the site.
23. BUILDING
DESIGN
The main living floor with living,
dining, kitchen and two bedrooms
with toilets and an attic study was all
housed at First floor
The entrance level at ground have a
small entry space for casual visitors
and a guest bed room as well a book
store.
The ground floor bed room 600 mm
below the entry level is a large room
opening to a enclosed garden at rear.
A small area of about 15 sq.m at
northwest corner is used for
composting, rain water harvesting, a
sump well , water pump and UPS,
rough store and gas cylinder.
An open covered space is used as
parking and multipurpose space.
A small deck at first floor over the
entrance at First Floor and the front
green space in Ground floor are used
for summer evenings.
A water tank, solar water heater are
housed over the roof. '
24. NATURAL
LIGHTING
Natural diffused light using a
central skylight, all round strip
ventilator openings in split level
roof ,long windows to light floors
make the spaces pleasant and
bright with changing moods
through out the day.
WATER
EFFICIENCY
Use of sump wells and overhead
tank manages erratic civic water
supply.
Rain water harvesting with
centrifugal filter use 90 percent of
the roof capture.
Natural lighting
methods in the
house
27. PASSIVE
COOLING
The centre of the building has
the perforated stairs raising up
like a chimney with a glass box
ventilator on top. This makes
the hot air rise and sucks in
fresh air at various levels.
Even the walls of the bedroom
do not reach the ceiling to allow
air circulation at higher level.
The roof is a low radiating filler
slab with hollow clay blocks and
screed concrete on top. This
reduces heat by 5 to 8 degree
Celsius during height of
summer. Between external and
internal temperature.
28. COST
EFFECTIVE
FEATURES
The curtain walls and internal
walls are of stabilised mud
bricks made at site using the
mud from excavation.
