ABSTRACT

If he is not on the outer fringes of society, the one common factor in all of us is the importance to make money and maintain our lifestyles. Certainly if he is someone who has a family, a mortgage, and a car payment, he already understands the basic principle behind having to earn a living to pay his bills. While it seemed that back in the old days it might have been easier to not have so much responsibility, and credit scores did not exist, today's reality is that we all have to show fiscal responsibility in our lives unless he work for the government.

If he is a carryover from the sixties and still living as a true hippie, he has no need to make money. Although, there aren't too many of these types around anymore living off the land and practicing free love and all of that. He may find himself limited to where he can go and what he can do unless he find his way to Berkeley, San Francisco, or sitting around a field in New York waiting for the next big music show.

The other exception to not needing to make money is if he lives his life in a cave somewhere, away from all other people, and living directly off whatever he can hunt or gather. In this case he needs to earn a dollar does not exist, but we are not sure how many caves are available today, as most land is now owned by someone, and he still might have to pay rent. He might want to venture out for foods and some snacks once in a while too, which will make him have to earn some cash sometimes.

We can see people feel that roads, bridges, multiplexes, computers, gadgets is all the development of country. Maybe in one way or other it is clear that we are getting globalized. But western people who being our role models for every development of our infrastructures are themselves having examples of people, gone dissociative, psychotic and many Personality disorders by the sum total of such environment. As machines get dominating the human value, we feel more depressed and that complex brings us an urge to get identity in society, that which never can be attained. Over the last few years our society has moved from the “Information Age” to the “TOO MUCH Information Age”. The problem right now is not lack of information, but the overabundance of it. And it makes some people to think that, ‘Other people don’t understand me. I don’t really understand me. I just know I’m not like other people. My life’s been a mess from start to finish. Nothing has ever gone right – I just seem to wreck everything and I don’t know why or how I do it’. Which Looks like our world is moving towards a wireless phone, fireless cooking, fatless food, sleeveless dress, jobless youths, shameless leaders, useless government, meaningless relations, careless attitude, heartless feelings, valueless education and directionless future.

DESIGN PROCESS

evolution of temple stopped-no further development of spaces respet to present scenario and

contex-looks alienated-not for the future peples without castes and religions-cant use old

construction techniques-dint use present construction methods-spaces are unused-not more

than atraditional one-bring back the essence

AIM

I want them not to gey inspired of the majority society/get complexed by the society

I want them to be stay in their own way, for they are capable of things

They may be together to know what they can’t or what they want

SOLUTION

The concept of temple was started by human race in all parts of the world, and it has been edited/ developed according to their lifestyles, beliefs and skills constantly. It acts as a place for people to interact, celebrate, motive, participate, etc. It satisfied all the age group. They designed it considering the mentality of the people at that time and also abstracted the ideas that help them indirectly or directly. It was designed in a way that people of that time considered it as a privilege to use it. It had such rule that suits the context.

It helped people to be, as what they are. It helped people to know, who they are. It helped people to do, what they can do better. But this stopped a long back. And now still the temple is being built with same old concepts, but not as the quality of older. We have not updated their concept, for we are not still following them. Those places are now looking alienated, unless we are forced or practiced to use. People now are exposed to global trends and our race has believed to be developed.

In olden days the production of all commodities for life was by hand. To transmit production expertise and technology only the father-son link was easily available from generation to generation. Each group who manufactured a particular commodity came to be called by a certain name generally; such names became castes. Now all manufacturing is done with the help of machines, and anyone can learn any work due to the modern educational system. So caste has no more meaning or place in human

When economic status is equalized there should be no more concepts that certain work is prestigious and other work is menial. All will share the work, thinking it is their service and duty to society.

Hence, difficult and laborious jobs such as sweeping the streets washing clothes, working in the drainage, garbage clearance, etc. will be entrusted to the youngsters and experts with good remuneration and incentives according to the need of the society.

OBJECTIVE

The design process would focus on flexibility of global users that would

- Reinforce the significance of public space for religious and spiritual activities for global

community with no religion.

- Emphasis on the retaining of essence and concept of temple with current trend and leads to

development of human value and rights.

- A prototype which can be followed to share present technical knowledge and information of art

and architecture and to exhibit our philosophical vision under one roof

- Focus on all age groups and users which may result in peaceful and healthy society.

ISSUES:

Need for a public space for this global world to maintain our lifestyles flexible and spiritual beyond fiscal

responsibility

Need for a public space which obeys global and individual beliefs and skills

Need for a technical exchange platform among young minds in this time challenged world

CHALLENGES AND CONSIDERATIONS

The reincarnation of dead programs without taking its essence and providing it with same quality suitable for present need of the users

The synchronization of varying programs for specific typology under one roof

The design considerations with sustained ideas and programme that do not disturb any of the individual beliefs in present and future

Strategy for a self-sustainable and holistic development fitting with the context and setting

Retaining of essence and concept of temple with current trend and leads to development of human values and rights.
