The circulation of the ball park extends and becomes a entrance gateway for the greenwayA concept sketch encouraging the connections of the ball park to downtown Nashville, the Capitol, German town neighborhood.

New Sounds Stadium at Sulphur Dell, NashvilleThe proposed Sulphur Dell master plan is a mixed use development with com-mercial activities at the lower level and residential facilities above on Jefferson, 5th Avenue and 3rd Avenue. This pro-posed development will have a new ball park (new home of Nashville Sounds) as a central focus. This ballpark will act as a catalyst encouraging development around it. Sulphur Dell master plan is an exten-sion of downtown Nashville on the south and the German town neighborhood on the north. The main idea while develop-ing this master plan was to create connec-tions to the river, German town neighbor-hood, downtown Nashville. The creek acts as a central spine stitching the Sul-phur Dell neighborhood to the ball park.

The Ball park design further extends these ideas of the proposed master plan through connections visually and physi-cally. Ball park designs are always in-troverted, since a typical AAA baseball stadium does not have huge seating ca-pacity, this new ball park explores the strategy of transparency through its skin.

The ball park will have multiple programs a)Leased spaces for shops and restaurantsb)Residential Towerc)Food Court

This design exploration is based on Michel Foucault reading ‘Of Other Spaces’ in which he talks about Heterotopic spaces existing within the society. A Heterotopic space is a inbetween space between the real and the unreal.

The intent of this exploration is to bring together two confl icting spaces in one united program. A site has been chosen in down-town knoxville having a heterotopic quality of a in-between space within the new and the old city. The program has been developed inside the three abandoned structures, one of these structures is the Cal Johnson building which is among the ‘fragile fi fteen list’ of knoxville.

I developed my program on the Foucault third principle of ‘Space within a space: A real space capable of juxtaposing the several other space which are in themselves incompatible’. The program being a theatre as a unreal space and a garden being a real space. The theatre has been developed as an extension of the garden space and this garden space further extends into existing structure through moments of entry sequences, circulation spaces and transition spaces.

The project celebrates the Gay Street theatre district history and emphasizes the importance of public spaces in an urban environment. The Sanborne map study of the early 1900 Knox-ville revealed that this site is divided into two parts by western summit hill drive, therefore an

attempt has been done to bring together these two parts of the site together. Park-ing spaces have been proposed underneath the garden space which connects the pedestrian traffi c from Gay Street, West Summit Hill drive and the Central Street. The median width and the change in ground texture of Western Summit Hill drive is done to slow down the traffi c and to encourage pedestrian connections. The cores connecting the parking to the grade have been developed as watch deck above grade to look over the canopy of the trees. The building scale of the project depicts the juxtaposition of the old (masonry) and the new (steel) through revelations in the facade to show the skeleton of the struc-ture underneath. These revelations in the

facade also reveal the garden spaces making the garden as an important facade element. These moments of the garden spaces in the circulation spaces extend to the roof of the existing struc-ture become an elevated public space with an open air amphitheatre in it. The shading devices on the roof create an amiable climate allowing winter sun penetration while keeping the sum-mer sun away.

The Sunshine house is a clean geometric volume wedded to its surroundings by view from inside. The main structure is comprise to four different blocks. Each block becomes a space that has its own func-tion. As you move through the house, there is a transition from public space to semi private and fi nally private space. According to the guidelines, the house is raised on seven feet stilts. The house has been designed keeping in mind the concept of prefabrication. Each block has its own independent structure that can be modifi ed according to the site condition. New Orleans lies in hot and humid climate, thus each block of house opens up into its own inner and outer courtyard. In order to avoid summer overheat-ing of the inner courtyard, a shading system has been designed which does not allows the summer sun to penetrate in the courtyard. This shading system has a photovoltaic roof which creates an ancillary source of electrical power for the house. This also increases the southern exposure of house as it is designed on a very narrow lot of thirty feet by hundred feet. This southern exposure helps in passive heating sys-tem during the winter months. The center block acts act as a sunspace for heating the public and private zones. The central block also act helps in passive cooling as it becomes a breezeway in summers. The structural system is port in place concrete with light wood frame construction at top. The phase change material is incorporated in fl oors which traps the heat during winter months and later refl ects the heat to the interior. The central block also has passive cooling technologies which helps in drawing the air from the outside using stack and cross ventilation. When there is no outside air movement, extractor fans located in the fl ooring systems helps in pulling air from outside.

USGBC’s 2010 Natural Talent Design Competition

This independent study will focus on multilayered facade systems in buildings. The intent of these facades is to deliver exemplary solar thermal performance and natural ventilation. The fi rst stage was to create parameters for designing a multilayred facade system. Since most of the climate types are based on three main climates, cold climate, hot arid, hot and humid, we created bundles: a packet of strategies for each climate type. These bundles have a hierarchy of strategies: contextual, critical and situational. The contextual strategies are main concepts to be taken into account for each specifi c climate type. The critical strategies originate from contextual strategies are further subdivided into building systems, elements and materials. The critical strategies have fi ve core strategies: ventilation aperture, daylight aperture, separate and combined openings, well placed windows, glass type. The situational strategies are the modifi ers for critical strategies, depending upon the building type and user preferences. Finally, I focused on the hot and humid layered facade system of my spring 2010 studio project in New Orleans, LA.

The commonwealth games is a multinational multi-sport event held every four years and involves the athletes from all the Commonwealth Nations.

MasterPlanning Design Concept The masterplan is inspired from British Architect Edwin Lutyens New Delhi Capitol Com-plex based on hexagonal grid iron planning. This hexagon planning caught the attention of varoius planners and architects in the early nineteenth century promising a panacea for the city planning ills and a replacement for the uniform rectangular street grid. The main driving force behind the Games Village master plan are: Traffi c: A hexagonal street network has always three legged intersection which has three potential collision points as compared to four legged junctions interesction which has sixteen potential collision points. A three legged is theoretically superior to a four way junction as 120 degree angle improves sight lines as compared with 90 degree in a fourway junction.Security: Access Control Points (ACP) have been proposed on each entry and exits. Zone Control Points (ZCP) have been proposed at the connection of pedestrian traffi c between International Zone and the Residential Zone. These ACP and ZCP will have security com-mand centers and vehicle check points, baggage screening, etc. .

The Circular House is situated in an isolated site which slopes down to a lake. The site gradient is descending from the lev-el of the approach; a lower ground fl oor & upper ground fl oor have been created. The Residential spaces are on the low-er ground fl oor & upper ground fl oor level. The offi ce & working area spaces are on the upper ground fl oor and fi rst fl oor.

The spatial layout of Circular house is planned with service spaces on the north and served spaces on the south. Architectur-al passive strategies have been incorporated in the facade design by the use of Trombe walls around the offi ces & bedrooms spac-es to collect heat during the day and radiate it in the night. The fi xed glazing is used on the northern areas of the residence which are the public & semi-public zones such as the kitchen & drawing room, etc to avoid heat escape & cold breeze penetration at night.

The principal design force behind this community hos-pital design is the segregation and sharing of circulation spaces through emphasis on security. These spaces are:

a)Public spaces: atrium, lobby spaces.These double height spaces create a sense of openess for the visitors and the patients through views of the land-scaped court.

b)Semi public spaces: the outer sanctum of each depart-ment. These spaces are the connecting spaces in between the outer large public spaces used by the visitors and the inner private spaces used by the staff.

c)Private spaces: the inner sanctum of each department.These interior spaces are the spine of the community hospital accessed the hospital staff only

The Brass Outsourcing hub will showcase the metal art work of local artisians and craftsmen. Brass handicrafts has been one of the primary export of the city of Mora-dabad. The fi rst thought while developing this scheme was to create a space for artisians and craftsmen where they would interact and share their resources. A space to exhibit their art work to the buyers and the visitors.

The hub consist of a main central atrium space, circular exhibition hall and shops. The exhibition hall has been designed taking into account the fl exibility of space. Parking spaces are provided in the basement. The Out-sourcing hub also consist warehouse spaces to store the art work and the exhibits. The warehouse is also pro-vided with workshop spaces to add fi nishing touches to the metal work.

The Library has been designed keeping in the mind the cost effec-tiveness of the project. A volumetric segregation of spaces is done through an expression in the structural system. Reading spaces are planned as double heighted spaces with a more open grid and Stacking spaces are designed with closer grid and single height volume to accomodate more storage spaces for the book and the journals. The main entry sequence spaces to the library block is through a double heighted volume. The basement is used as com-puter lab and digital library spaces.

The Administration block consist of offi ce adminstration spaces and principals rooms, etc.
