Q: What type of design project is "METROPOLITAN SHELTER"?

"METROPOLITAN SHELTER" is a Urban Design, Sustainable Design, Concept Architecture, Landscape Design project showcased on uni.xyz.

The intervention interprets and enhances the spirit of the site. The aim is to create a place of "refuge" from the stress of the city, where urban life can take place at a slower pace while surrounded by nature. A place that allows for limitless arrangements of the space, and different "intensities", depending on the activity taking place.

A very sensitive solution that keeps the site universally accessible.

We value the study of the conection with the city and the different levels of the void in wich we are working.

Bend It

The more dense our urban environments become, the more valuable open and natural settings become. This struck me first when reviewing how the adjacent community has appropriated the abandoned train route to commune with nature and neighbors in ways that are informal, organic, creative, and productive.

Kudaaram

The proposed site is Mannady Street in the George Town area of Chennai, India. This street was chosen as a prototype unique to the Indian context characterised by its congested, bustling nature. Such streets can be found in every Indian city, especially in the metropolises and hence the proposed solution can be applied in these situations.

Community Platform

The Community Platform bridges the existing tracks of the Petite Ceinture. The project connects both sides of the tracks to create an inclusive shared space for markets and performances interspersed with landscaping around exposed tracks. Above, a lightweight roof canopy spans the public space, unifying the two sides and offering shelter from the elements.

Peripherique in Movement

A design proposal aiming to expand along the peripherique starting from Petite Centurie where it will act as a starting point between the end of the existing flux zones and the start of the new flux areas, extending along the beltway (peripherique) and, creating enough momentum to induce the circular movement.
