architecture

OUTLINE: Project brief shall contain clearly articulated goals of the institutions regarding the role of built environment in its functioning. Design emphasis shall be on the on the use of innovations in materials and techniques of construction. Concurrent or sequentially utilities and services aspects shall be considered. Case studies of contemporary campus architecture (built since 1980s) shall be carried out.

VIII SEMESTER Course Code: 09AT8DCARD Course: Architectural Design Project


To demonstrate an ability to comprehend the nature of architectural problem and create a brief which sets the frame work for design

To demonstrate an advanced level design ability to convert the brief set forth earlier into a speculative proposition of design

To articulate and delineate the propositions of design into an architectural solution addressing all the dimensions

OUTLINE: Architectural Design Projects can be of any scale and size (in terms of built areas) as long as the required rigour and depth is demonstrated by the student to merit consideration as a final project. Very large campus projects can be avoided as the work more often ends with a large number of structures but with minimal variation and content. It is expected that all genre of projects (study or design) would end in a design solution; in fact all projects should be grounded in some kind of critical enquiry. The maximum weightage for study shall be 25% in case of a Study + Design Project. The depth of enquiry can be extended and the time spent on design can be reduced in a specific case, but such a project should demonstrate clarity in terms of research design. The following stages have been identified as a generic model of the studio. The stages can be fine tuned depending on the resources. It is expected that this project will be run as a studio with individual guidance under a project coordinator and assisted by several guides.

1. Pre-Project: This stage should ideally be accomplished in the previous semester. The work involves students to discuss with the faculty to identify an area of interest or specific types of buildings. This stage should end with a project proposal giving routine information on site, location, need, broad requirements and scale. In addition, the proposal should clearly indicate the “project question” or an area (or areas) of interest.

2. Project Seminar: Student shall present a seminar on the project topic which would include the following;

a. Precedents of similar projects, either actual visit to such projects or through literature reviews

b. Cultural, contextual, historical, technological, programmatic concerns of the project

c. Prevalent or historical models of architectural approach to such projects and a critique of such models


d. A rhetorical or speculative statement that would be the basis of further investigation (for example: Architecture in the information age – Design of Libraries in the new virtual reality regime).

Documentation which is part of this presentation shall be taken as completion of “Case Study” part of the final requirement.

3. Mid Reviews: There shall be reviews to clarify the conceptual statements and assumptions of the students. Students shall present a clearly articulated response to context, programme and users. Preliminary / Conceptual and development of architectural scheme shall be the end product of this stage.

4. Final Review: This stage should consist of all the works which would be presented at the Viva-voce. Mode of presentation shall be tentative.

The final output shall include a Report, All Drawings, Study Models and Presentation Model. The Report shall discuss the Programme, Site Analysis, Literature Review, Case Studies, Design Criteria, Concept and Detailed Design. Three copies of the report shall be submitted along with drawings and models.

NOTE: The design shall incorporate principles of barrier free environment. At the time of Viva-voce examination, the student shall show to the jurors, the portfolio containing the evolution of his/her design from the beginning to the final output. All the drawings and reports shall be certified by the Head of the Department as bonafide work carried out by the student during the semester.
