INTRODUCTION ? WHAT IS DOMESTIC SPACE ?, FIRST UNDERSTAND THE MEANING AND ACCORDING TO THE MEANING WE HAVE TO FIND OUR OWN DOMESTIC SPACE AND THEN TRANSFORM ITS EXPERIENCE FROM THE EXISTING ONE. ? SO GOING THROUGH THE MEANING AND LOTS OF BRAINSTORMING PERIOD, I FINALLY DECIDED TO CHOOSE MY DOMESTIC SPACE i.e. WHERE I'M PRESENTLY STAYING .IT IS MY RELATIVES HOUSE. IT IS A ROOM GIVEN TO ME FOR STAY. ? SO NOW , THE QUESTION WAS WHAT TO TRANSFORM , THAT IT CHANGES THE EXPERIENCE. ? AS I THINK THAT , I DON'T WANT TO CHANGE JUST FOR SAKE OF CHANGING. BUT TO MAKE SOMETHING/TRANSFORM WHICH IS/WHAT IS NOT FUNCTIONING WELL OR WHICH IS NOT FUNCTIONING IN MY DESIRED WAY. ? AND FOR THAT , ON MY FIRST OBSERVATION I CAME TO KNOW THAT THE NATURAL LIGHT IS MUCH LESS IN COMPARISION TO WHAT IT WAS NECESSARY AND EVEN THERE WAS NOTHING INTRESTING HAPPENING WITH LESS LIGHT, SO I THINK THAT THERE WAS NO REASON TO KEEP THAT UN-NECESSARY THING AND DECIDED TO TRANSFORM IT. ? SO NOW MY TASK WAS TO INCERASE THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT TILL IT IS SUITABLE FOR MY WORKING ENVIRONMENT. BUT WITH LIGHT COMES SHADOW , SO IT CAN BE SOMETHING INTRESTING TO PLAYWITH SHADOWS AND NOT LIGHT. WHY TRANSFORM THE EXPERIENCE ONLY ONCE ? I SHOULD TRANSFORM THE EXPERIENCE WHENEVER I WANTED/WISH. PROTOTYPE - I ? TO TRANSFORM ANYTIME AFTER THIS THERE SHOULD BE NO EXPENSE , AND IT SHOULD NOT TAKE MUCH TIME, EFFORTS, AND ENERGY. ? THANKS TO THE DIRECTION OF ROOM THAT IT IS FACING S-W SIDE , SO I CAN MANAGE TO GET DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND WHICH IS GOOD FOR CREATING SOME SIMILAR EXPERIENCE WHICH I WANTED. ? KEEPING ALL THE PREVIOUS THOUGHTS IN MIND , I STARTED TO MAKE MY FIRST PROTOTYPE. ? EASY TO TRANSFORM ANYTIME - WITHOUT ANY EXPENSE - WITHOUT MUCH EFFORTS - WITHOUT ENERGY CONSUMPTION. THE FIRST THING CAME TO MY MIND WAS SOMETHING WHICH CAN SLIDE AND FOR THE SUNLIGHT AND DERICTION I THOUGHT OF MAKING SOMETHING CURVED AND HAS LAYERS BELOW TRANSPARENT LAYER TO FILTER LIGHT AND CAST INTRESTING SHADOWS. ? SO WITH THAT IDEAS I MADE MY FIRST PROTOTYPE WITHOUT SCALE. TAKING PROTOTYPE - I AND MAKING ITS ANOTHER VERSION DIRECTLY WAS NOT FIXING IN MY MIND SO WITH THE HELP OF DRAWINGS AND 3-D MODELLING SOFTWARE I DONE SOME INITIAL STUDIES ( SHAPE , GEOMETRY , PLACEMENT OF TRANSFORMED PART , DIRECTION OF PLACING THE OPENING , ETC. ) FOR NEXT VERSION. ? DRAWINGS - TYPICAL PLAN OF THE HOUSE AND ENLARGED PLAN AND SECTION OF DECIDED ROOM. - FROM THIS THE WINDOW WHICH I WAS TO PROVIDE ONLY ON MY WORKING TABLE EVOLVED AND WAS NOW STRETCHING TO THE WHOLE ROOM THAT IS IT IS COVERING BOTH OPEN SIDES. -FIRST IT WAS ONLY FOR MY WORKING DESK BUT NOW IT CAN ALSO BE ON MY BED AS TO GET LIGHT OVER THERE ALSO BECAUSE IF SOMETIME I WANT TO INTERCHANGE THE POSITION OF BED AND DESK THAT IS POSSIBLE. ? 3-D MODELLING SOFTWARE - MADE AN EXISTING HOUSE ,AND THEN ALTERNATIVES TO PLACE AND THEN MADE VARIATIONS OF ALTERNATIVE . PROTOTYPE - II ? THEN FOR THE NEXT PROTOTYPE I PROCEEDED WITH SOME MORE CLEAR IDEA OF MAKING 1 : 5 SCALE SO TO TEST THE PROTOTYPE WITH DESIRED LAYERS. ? SIMULTANEOUSLY THE INNER LAYERS WERE ALSO WORKED OUT. ? SO NOW AGAIN CONTINUING EXPERIMENTS IN VIRTUAL SPACE MANY THINGS SUCH AS STRUCTURE OF THE EXISTING SLAB AND LANGUAGE OF THE WHOLE SURROUNDING ETC. WERE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT. ? SO NOW ONE CAN NOTICE THAT TRANSFORMATION WAS NOT OF ANY ONE ELEMENT BUT AS WE PROCEED FURTHER THE ELEMENT WAS BECOMING INTO WHOLE ENVELOPE , THAT IS WINDOW - WALL - MAYBE SLAB. ? IN THIS PARTICULAR PROTOTYPE THE JUNCTION OF THE CURVED WINDOW WAS TRIED TO BE RESOLVED. PROTOTYPE - III ? FOR ANOTHER VERSION THE CONTEXT OF THE ROOM WAS MUST.AS ONE CANT IMAGINE THE SPACE AND EXPERIENCE WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT ( NOR EVEN I ) ? SO FOR THIS PROTOTYPE I MADE THE CONTEXT AND THEN FIXED THE TRANSFORMATION THERE. ? SO FROM THAT THEIR WERE MANY UNDERSTANDINGS THAT HOW WILL THE TRANSFORMATION WORKS WITH CHOOSEN PLACE. ? THE STRUCTURE WAS ALSO RESOLVED FROM THIS (OF TRANSFORMATON ) ? FROM THIS WE CAME TO KNOW THAT THE SLAB WHICH I HAD THOUGHT OF CONSTRUCTING IN R.C.C. IS NOT GOING TO WORK ( AS WHOLE OF THE TRANSFORMATION IS DRY CONSTRUCTION AND R.C.C. IS NOT ) MULTIPLYING POSSIBILITIES ? EASY AND FAST CONSTURCTION. ? ESPECIALLY FOR PROTOTYPE - III , WHEN THE DEMOLITION COMPLETES ,THAT SAME DAY WHOLE TRANSFORMATION CAN BE PLACED AS IT MAY BE PRE-FABRICATED. ? DISASTER VICTIMS - WE CAN USE SUCH MODULES AND IT CAN BE TRANSPORTED TO THE DESTINATION WHERE IT IS NEEDED DURING NATURAL - ARTIFICIAL CALAMITIES. ? PRIMARY SCHOOLS - THIS TYPE OF WINDOWS CAN BE USED TO TEACH THE STUDENTS DIFFERENT SHAPES AND DIFFERNT COLOURS , AS IT LOOKS VERY PLAYFUL IN INNER ENVELOPE.
