Foundation Studio 2

In this program we learnt various skill sets via interestingly designed assignments. We worked on site and in the studio on topics like Describing Buildings, Mapping CG Road, Maximizing Efficiency, Charting Adjacency, Testing Materials, TRD and Design Problem. We used the skills we were taught in first semester to visually present the ideas and observations done this semester, on paper.  


Report Content

Describing Buildings: It is an on-site work where I analysed the slum of Gulbai Tekra in its built and form and various other aspects.

Maximizing Efficiency: In this exercise we learnt how to utilize compact spaces. We layout different plans to maximize its efficiency and also make it comfortable for the users.

TRD: Here we had to design a 3 storey building with voids on each floor and then section the entire place and draw its technical 2D representations.

Rules of Organisation

Testing Materials: In this project we had to efficiently design a reed stick model (cantilever) that could maximize the load it can take.
