attach to office spaces.
• The open and closed spaces are connected to each other both visually and physically to
create cloud environment to study purpose.

SITE
PLAN

27. Form and orientation:
▪ Form optimization led to the formation of a perfect rectangular
volume with minimum exposed surface area.
▪ The site has a level changes.
▪ Building blocks including classrooms and lecture halls have
been raised by levels for landscaping purposes.
▪ Thicker wall prevents classrooms from the outer heat in
summer seasons also due to that less use of mechanical
equipment.
▪ The building blocks allotted for under graduates and post
graduates are single storey but the administration blocks is
double storey building.
▪ Academic block’s exterior is completely made by stone
cladding.
▪ Its not only looks attractive and given a rough surface.
▪ Series of columns outside the building creates colonnade.
▪ Colonnade distinct spaces between inside and outside area.
▪ Projected roofs create a light and shadow effect.
▪ Corridor created along with building but outside. Which meld
seamlessly with outer landscaping.
▪ The lawn space can be used as a sitting space making a
informal interactive space.
▪ Also the corridor itself creating a informal interactive space.

▪ Climate: typical hot, dry and desert type
▪ Design of the building inspired of formal
geometry.
▪ Cost effective design
▪ challenge to control the micro climate within the
building.
▪ modern adaption of traditional Indo-Islamic
architectural elements and passive cooling
strategies.
▪ Use of open courtyards, water body, a step wall ,
jaalis to maintain a micro climate within the
project.
▪ All these elements manifest themselves through
the built form and become an intrinsic part of the
daily life of the design student.

44. Form optimization, morphology and
orientation:
▪ a perfect rectangular volume with minimumexposed
surface area.
▪ The site was excavated to a depth of 4 metre, to create an
underbelly and the two stories of classrooms, studios, and
offices were raised on pilots above the voids.
▪ the underbelly, which is thermally banked on all sides, has a
ramp designed to be used during fashion shows and forms
the anchor for the entire project.
▪ serves as a large recreation and exhibition zone, houses the
cafeteria and spill out areas for the student population.
▪ This curvilinear geometry is generated through a
computerized shadow analysis that tracks the precise
movement of the sun through the day and across the
season.
▪ The self shading sliver courtyards help to control the
temperature of internal spaces and open step-wells, while
allowing sufficient day lighting inside studios and
classrooms.

45. Various
interaction
spaces

48. Materials used:
▪ mix of local stone, steel, glass and concrete chosen keeping in mind the
climate needs of the region while retaining the progressive design intent.
▪ The exterior is painted orange to set off the white jaali but the interior
surfaces are white, to reduce heat asportation.
Courtyards and stepwells
▪ Thermally banked on all sides, a space for sacred
congregation within an academic institution: for students, for
activity and chances activity, for recreation ,exhibition and
interaction amidst the organic setting or green and water.
▪ The water body id fed by the recycled water from the sewage
treatment plant and helps in the creation of a microclimate
through evaporative cooling.
Ventilation and structural grid:
▪ The courtyards get indirect light into classrooms.
▪ The entire building is on 9m grid, single bay, naturally lit and
cross- ventilated.
