As the name of the Studio suggests, 360°-From Concept to Creation, this Studio will offer Students an opportunity to deal with the entire process between conception of a Schematic Program right till the stage before Site execution. Students are at L3 level, so they would have gone through a series of Design Studios of various scale & types, hence this Studio will provide an opportunity for them to take their concepts & designs up to the state of execution. From the start, the Students will be given a Design Problem where they''ll be expected to handle a Project which will be designed for a Client with a budget. Students will go through a 360° process of conceptual designs, Design development, Estimation, Construction drawings, Material selection, BOQ, Project Timeline & preexecution standards. Moreover, most Students are found lacking in Material knowledge, so special emphasis will be given in practical material specifications & creating Material pallettes. There will be sessions organized at Vendor & manufacturers premises to learn about Materials through practical perspective. Also, since the Studio is all about the real world scenarios, knowledge sessions regarding Contractors, challenges during execution, Site problems & creating SOP’s for Sitework will be emphasized.
