This document provides information about a proposed Greenwood International School project in Kolkata, India. It discusses the location, projected student capacity, architects, and existing Greenwood schools. It also covers the design concept focusing on integration with nature, green practices, and blending old and new approaches. Site analyses are presented, along with case studies of other schools. Program area requirements are listed and the final design includes segregation of junior and senior blocks around a central courtyard with north-south oriented blocks for daylighting. Landscaping plans to reflect the culture and contours of West Bengal are also mentioned.

The idea is to create a relationship between the built & the unbuilt spaces.
There are evidences of blend of traditional and contemporary architecture.
Aesthetics are cared for, sometimes at the stake of comfort if not function.
The site is well-segregated into various zones w.r.t the functions.
Circulation spaces are minimised to obtain efficiency in design.

Between Filth and Fortune- Urban Cattle Foraging Realities by Devi S Nair, An...Mansi Shah

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.

25. Before the pupils enter
their classroom they cross
a living room. Here they
hang out with their
classmates. This way
there’s a right balance
between the joining and
the division of the three
different schools.
The younger children have
their own entrance and
square, called Glass House.
Here they can play and have
their lunch.
26. Inferences

spaces
Traffic entering the site
Discipline through one
block
Hierarchy in spaces
Visual penetration loss
No segregation of Junior
block
Future expansion
41. • Admin and lab block in the front which also provides
the screening from front
• Courtyard gives segregation
• Play of levels to give informal spaces in between
formal structure
• Separate entry for auditorium and play area
• North – South Orientation of the blocks for maximum
daylighting
• Blocks placed for mutual shading

State tree
Alstonia consists of about 40-60 species
(according to different authors), native to
tropical and subtropical Africa, Central
America, southeast Asia, Polynesia and
Australia, with most species in the
Malesian region.
These trees can grow very large, such as
Alstonia pneumatophora, recorded with a
height of 60 m and a diameter of more
than 2 m. Alstonia longifolia is the only
species growing in Central America
(mainly shrubs, but also trees 20 m high).
Used for screening and shading
69. Mangroves
Large variety in sizes.
Found in abundance in Sunderban delta
Very less water evaporation
Red Mangroves also a popular variety
70. Great Banyan
Historical Significance.
Knowledge tree – Lord Buddha
The Great Banyan is a banyan
tree (Ficus benghalensis)
located in Acharya Jagadish
Chandra Bose Indian Botanic
Garden, Howrah, near Kolkata,
India.[1] It was the widest tree
in the world[citation needed] in
terms of the area of the
canopy and is estimated to be
about 1200 to 1250 years
old.[1] It became diseased
after it was struck by lightning,
so in 1925 the middle of the
tree was excised to keep the
remainder healthy; this has left
it as a clonal colony, rather
than a single tree. A 330 metre
long road was built around its
circumference, but the tree
continues to spread beyond it.
72. BOUGAINVILLEA
The vine species grow anywhere from 1
to 12 m (3 to 40 ft.) tall, scrambling over
other plants with their spiky thorns. The
thorns are tipped with a black, waxy
substance. They are evergreen where
rainfall occurs all year, or deciduous if
there is a dry season. The leaves are
alternate, simple ovate-acuminate, 4–13
cm long and 2–6 cm broad. The actual
flower of the plant is small and generally
white, but each cluster of three flowers is
surrounded by three or six bracts with the
bright colours associated with the plant,
including pink, magenta, purple, red,
orange, white, or yellow. Bougainvillea
glabra is sometimes referred to as "paper
flower" because the bracts are thin and
papery. The fruit is a narrow five-lobed
achene.
73. Nyctanthes arbor-tristis
(Night-flowering Jasmine)
10 m tall, with flaky grey bark
2–6.5 cm broad
Anti bacterial and anti fungal – long life
Nyctanthes arbor-tristis is a shrub or a
small tree growing to 10 m tall, with flaky
grey bark. The leaves are opposite,
simple, 6–12 cm long and 2–6.5 cm
broad, with an entire margin. The flowers
are fragrant, with a five- to eight-lobed
white corolla with an orange-red centre;
they are produced in clusters of two to
seven together, with individual flowers
opening at dusk and finishing at dawn.
The fruit is a flat brown heart-shaped to
round capsule 2 cm diameter, with two
sections each containing a single seed
74. Combretum indicum
Combretum indicum, also known as
the Chinese honeysuckle or Rangoon
creeper, is a vine with red flower clusters
and is found inAsia. It is found in many
other parts of the world either as a
cultivated ornamental or run wild.
The Rangoon creeper is a ligneous vine
that can reach from 2.5 meters to up to
8 meters. The leaves are elliptical with
an acuminate tip and a rounded base.
They grow from 7 to 15 centimeters and
their arrangement is opposite. The
flowers are fragrant and tubular and
their color varies from white to pink to
red. The 30 to 35 mm long fruit is
ellipsoidal and has five prominent wings.
The fruit tastes like almonds when
mature. The niyog-niyogan is usually
dispersed by water.
75. MYRTUS COMMUNIS
The fruit is a round berry
containing several
seeds, most commonly
blue-black in colour. A
variety with yellow-amber
berries is also
present. The seeds are
dispersed by birds that
eat the berries.
76. Sorrel
Common sorrel or garden sorrel (Rumex
acetosa), often simply called sorrel, is a
perennial herb in the family
Polygonaceae. Other names for sorrel
include spinach dock and narrow-leaved
dock. It is a common plant in
grassland habitats and is cultivated as a
garden herb or leaf vegetable
Sorrel is a slender herbaceous perennial
plant about 60 cm high, with roots that
run deep into the ground, as well as
juicy stems and edible, arrow-shaped
(sagittate) leaves. The lower leaves are
7 to 15 cm in length with long petioles
and a membranous ocrea formed of
fused, sheathing stipules. The upper
ones are sessile, and frequently become
crimson. It has whorled spikes of reddish-green
flowers, which bloom in early
summer, becoming purplish.[1][2] The
species is dioecious, with stamens and
pistils on different plants
