STUDY MODELS GAVE AN IDEA TO THE SCALE OF THE PROJECT AND WERE REALLY HELPFUL IN THE DESIGN<br />

DEVELOPMENT STAGES. THE INITIAL THOUGHT OF COMBINING ALL THE PROGRAMS AND STACKING THEM ,<br />

LATER CHANGED INTO AN ARENA OF A BUNCH OF BUILDINGS WITH PROPER<br />

CONNECTIONS TO SUPPORT THE MAIN IDEA BEHIND THE VERTICAL URBAN FACTORY .<br />

Third Year<br />

In order to understand the complexity of design and its interaction with social, environmental VERTICAL URBAN and economic FACTORYperspectives<br />

SANCHIT ARORA<br />

the studio was themed as ‘responsible design’ and students were given a choice between two design problems, namely<br />

a world trade centre design or a hotel complex. A world trade centre being a mixed used development, students were<br />

guided to understand the dichromatic nature of areas where multiple activities take place. Based on the nature, students<br />

were asked to present case studies, one primary and one secondary, such that the concept of programmes interacting<br />

with each other at various levels and scales is understood. Students were also asked to germinate the concept for using a<br />

unique feature that was coined as the ‘X-programme’, introduced along with the other programme requirements.<br />

The hotel project had to accommodate multiple uses in addition to the guest rooms and reception and lobby areas. These<br />

spaces could include multiple restaurants, cafes, spa, service rooms, offices, luggage store, banquet hall and auditoriums<br />

for conferences and meetings, along with associated ancillary functions as needed. The expected product would be a<br />

designed building or complex that functions round the clock, making better use of the expensive resource and providing<br />

infrastructure like parking space, service cores, facilities confirming to all the bye law norms, but at the same time,<br />

presenting innovative creative solutions that make it sustainable by all means.<br />
