Bharat Bhavan is a cultural center located in Bhopal, India that was designed by architect Charles Correa and inaugurated by Indira Gandhi in 1982. It is built into a hillside with a series of terraces and courtyards that cascade down toward a lake. The complex includes galleries, a museum of tribal art, an auditorium, a library of Indian poetry, a print shop, and a studio for artists-in-residence. Correa's design emphasizes spirituality through ritualistic pathways that reference Indian architecture and imply sanctity as visitors move from the highest terraces down to an amphitheater by the lake.

Dilli Haat is a public space in Delhi that aims to recreate the atmosphere of traditional Indian bazaars. It contains approximately 100 craft stalls, two food courts, an amphitheater, and other amenities. The buildings are constructed with exposed brick and stone in the local vernacular style, with green roofs irrigated by recycled water. The landscaping utilizes a variety of trees, shrubs, and plants arranged purposefully to provide shade and beautify the space. The selection of materials and design of Dilli Haat maximize energy efficiency while maintaining an intimate scale that complements the crafts sold.
Vivek Kumar Rai is proposing a design for a Cultural Heritage and Interpretation Centre in Varanasi, India. The centre would help preserve Varanasi's rich cultural heritage and promote understanding of the city's history and mythology among visitors and locals. It would be located near the historic site of Sarnath, which receives many tourists annually and would house administrative offices, cultural spaces like an auditorium and prayer halls, interpretation areas like exhibitions and a library, and other amenities. Rai will analyze the site conditions and context, research requirements and case studies, and develop a conceptual design that considers the urban landscape and its surroundings.

This document discusses the importance of bird-friendly architecture and urban design. As urban areas continue to grow and habitats are fragmented, bird populations are declining. The document provides several strategies to encourage bird diversity and support bird habitats in urban areas, including creating green spaces with varied landscaping, shallow ponds, and food sources; using building materials and designs that provide nesting spaces; addressing issues like glass collisions and light pollution; and integrating habitat elements into architecture at all scales from cities to individual buildings. The goal is to thoughtfully design the built environment to support biodiversity and help bird populations thrive in urban settings.

The Transformers Theatre concept came from optimizing design for a new theatre. A multi-purpose theatre was defined through different stage positions. The relationship between stage and seats is based on a jigsaw puzzle concept, which determines acoustic panel placement, creating a unique acoustic surface. Three theatre requirements were design parameters, and specific strategies connected them into an integrated, adaptable, and flexible system allowing reconfiguration. It was carried out through simulations of structure, material, and geometry.

arts center all emanating from an
expansive open-air plaza.
Water serves as a key element of the
scheme, separating various aquatic
activities while allowing the public
to explore the waterfront by boat.
On the East bank, a four-story
experiential retail park is linked by
gently sloping ramps, escalators, and
bridges layered beneath an
expansive green roof ribbon.
The traditional shopping
experience is transformed with an
abundance of natural light and
choreographed circulation.
5. EAST WATERFRONT
RETAIL PARK
The 35,000 m2 RETAIL PARK
consists of multiple pebble-
shaped three-story volumes
arranged organically along an
elaborate waterfront park, facing
south.
These organic forms harmonize
with nature on one side while
multiple penetrations along the
north side address the urban
context.
The porous nature of the project
naturally draws visitors from the
waterfront into the open-air
retail environment, integrating
shopping, food, and beverage
venues seamlessly with nature.
6. An urban business center
composed of terraced office
buildings and hotel, serves as a
backdrop to the harbor, with green
roofs set to collect rainwater and
limit solar heat gain.
With 1.5 million square feet of
mixed-use expansion in the heart
of Bao’ an, OCT OH BAY sets a
precedent for future development
in Shenzhen.
The streamlined, curvilinear nature
of the project and public gathering
space are unifying themes, melding
the needs of a commercially viable
program and burgeoning cultural
district at an extraordinary scale.
7. The second and third floor volumes
are stacked slightly off-kilter,
shifting, and tilting as they rise
above the ground plane.
This movement creates sheltering
overhangs dynamic terraces with
breathtaking views beyond the
waterfront park to the ocean.
The boundary between building and
nature, commercial space, and
parkland, is completely blurred,
allowing for unprecedented
integration of retail development
and a natural landscape.
The shifting volumes and extensive
green roofs funnel breezes
throughout the site and provide
shade and respite from the summer
heat.
8. Located in the center of the lower-level retail is a 50-
meter-wide sunken plaza.This celebration space will
accommodate diverse events, exhibitions, and impromptu
social gatherings.
It is the culmination point for public access from the
subway station in the northeast and the gateway to the
waterfront park through a cascading water garden.
Gently undulated green roofs, as mentioned above, tie all
volumes of the development together, creating a unique
setting adjacent to and above the waterfront park.
From these roofs, visitors have spectacular views of the
ocean beyond.
The roof garden terrain has a diverse landscape that
includes a flower garden, a cascading sculpture garden, an
outdoor performance terrace, and an undulating running
trail.
The undulating running trail floats above the retail
circulation and gives exercise enthusiasts a thrilling
experience with 360-degree views from the ocean to the
city and beyond.
9. Two landscaped gentle pedestrian
ramps rise from either end of the
project, east, and west, to create
three-dimensional paths for
visitors from the public park to
every level of the commercial
zone including the green roof
garden.
This vertical pedestrian access
conjoins gentle ramps, stairs, and
rest zones with trees, flowers, and
art installations.
10. The ecological green belt that runs through the retail
blocks on the east and west banks introduces water
features and green plants into the commercial space, the
landscape and the architecture are naturally integrated.
Along with awnings, green balconies, and ecological
roofs to form air ducts and cold lanes, which greatly
reduces the urban heat island effect.
The retail streets maximize natural lighting through
skylights and patios and use solar systems to
continuously obtain energy.
The orientation of the buildings caters to the demand
for natural ventilation.
The streamlined shape and vertical patio are designed to
enhance wind pressure and thermal pressure ventilation.
High ceilings, openable windows, and high-energy low-
speed fans are used to optimize indoor air circulation.
