Quarrantine Facility - A Community Dwelling?

Amidst this pandemic there are lack of places where people who are exposed to the covid virus can quarantine themselves. Hence, this program is directed towards designing a quarantine facility which has certain spatial experience and character and provides livable spaces to the people. It develops a sense of community and belongingness, that helps people not be scared and are surrounded by each other with the aspect of social distancing into consideration. It can also be used as a refugee shelter, shelter for the homeless, for people facing any disaster.

Design Program

On the basis of adjacency and space organization, module iterations in plan were made. Later, cluster iterations were made after developing the grid in z-axis. The ratios used in development of the grid are 3:3, 4:5, 5:3, which were the preferred ratios used by Andrea Palladio designing living spaces.

Various iterations of Clusters were made using shape grammar rules like Translation, Rotation etc. Final Cluster was developed with an intention of a growth pattern to it.
