SECOND B. ARCHITECTURE - THIRD SEMESTER

Aim: The aim of the subject is systematic introduction to issues related with the design of human habitat, its components and space standards. The objective of the studio will be on understanding residential spaces in both the urban and traditional contexts, user needs and how they translate into program and manifestation in design in terms of space, materials and construction methodology in both the urban and traditional contexts.

Course Content:

• Design of a simple building for residential use in the immediate or observable environment with a focus on program and use.

• Exercises relating personal experiences to behavioral needs and translating them into architectural program requirements

• Study of vernacular architecture, emerging out of the traditional way of life of the people in a given climatic context and region .

• Understanding how the social and physical environment, climate of the place, materials and methods of construction impact vernacular architecture. This study could be part of a village or part of a small town and would involve measuring buildings and a topographic survey

• The study will be followed by the design of a simple building / adaptive reuse in the context of the study

• Problems aimed at drafting and presentation skills in 2-D and 3D in both manual and electronic format.

  Methodology:

• Free hand architectural sketching should be given importance while doing all the exercises
