Mixed Use Development, At Baner, Pune, India.

A modern day Architectural intervention that creates an urban space that bridges all cardinal nodes of the neighborhood. A city within a city that never sleeps and caters to all the needs of the neighborhood. A commercial utopia that unravels the grandeur and adds a jewel to the skyline of Pune City.

Honorable MentionHonorable MentionThe Oasis Cultural Center

ecOASIStem

Oasis, a word that brings so many concepts to one’s mind in climatic, social, lifestyle, historical, and financial fields, thus many of our ideas came from there. An oasis is a place in a desert that contains water, supplied by a spring or another underground water source. This word is a symbol of both fear and hope. Fear of desert, dehydration, wild nature

BEETWEEN

While analyzing the project site, we identified it as a threshold between the expanding city and surrounding nature. Instead of creating a sharp division, we approached sustainability as a unity where urban and natural elements intertwine. Our design reflects this relationship and aims to rethink how city and nature can coexist.

THE URBAN MOUNTAIN

A sustainable design should be able to account for and minimize the negative environmental impacts of buildings. An Urban Meal Mine aimed to become an epitome for when farms meet the cities should hence, necessarily be able to reflect upon the benefits of what a green and sustainable ecosystem could do for the people surrounded by otherwise concrete jungles.

Transitional Linkage

Concept of this project came from the site. Studying the site it was found that there is an invisible path going through the rail line and crossing the highway. That path was created because of peoples need. So I try to formalize that path in my project for the ease of movement of local pedestrian. Those paths become my concept of central space of my project

VERTICAL SPA AS A LANDMARK IN THE URBAN CORE

What would become if all the facilities and the content offered by horizontal spa, were to be placed in a vertical one. Emphasizing the physical distance from the urban environment is a unique experience of the Vertical spa. What kind of emotional and spiritual state would such spaces develop and awaken in the user, at a higher altitude?
