Double Skin Facade
Architectural systems using dual-layer envelopes for climate control, privacy, and aesthetic expression.
Exploring New Forms with Parametric Patterns for Responsive Facades: A Case on Kinetic Jali Design.
This paper examines how traditional jali screens perforated geometric patterns historically used for privacy, shading, and airflow can be reinterpreted through parametric design tools to create responsive, kinetic facade systems. It directly informs Porosity's core premise: that a single rule-based pattern logic, rooted in a long architectural tradition of filtered openness, can be formalized into a computational system that adapts variation across a surface rather than requiring custom design

ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO
This portfolio is a small window overlooking my experience and learnings as a student. During this time I explored multiple aspects of architecture that were not limited to my studio bounds but opened out to various disciplines of interior, art, culture and cuisines. I enjoy creating illustrations and graphics as forms of expression and visualisations, and I am well-organized and adaptable when working on tasks both independently and in groups. I also enjoy trying new cuisines, photography, and
OFIS Architects Sets a Mirrored Glass Retreat on a Canyon Rim in the Gorafe Desert
A 20 m² glass and timber pavilion in Gorafe, Spain, uses mirrored glazing to deflect desert sun while opening a full 360-degree canyon view.
Eternal-AX06
120-storey skyscraper features a kinetic façade with solar-responsive panels and wind turbines, generating energy while optimizing light and ventilation. It actively purifies air, drawing pollution from the base and filtering it through green walls, bio-filtration chambers, and water features, releasing clean air from the top, enhancing urban sustainability.
Dwell (eve
Focusing on boundaries, privacy, community, level, sustainability, modular construction is good, but designed spaces looks a bit boring or noisy (specially wood louver on facade and solar power roof top.) And presentation should be more sophisticated both exterior and interior renderings. Idea should be presented in more simple way.
