    CONCEPTUAL PLAN, SECTION OF ACADEMIC BLOCK
    MASTER PLAN ACADEMIC BLOCK
    The planning of the campus seems to be evolved by an
    organic form as main road as river flowing with its
    tributaries as internal pedestrians .

    The master plan is evolved as a dense liner layout with


    central dense street giving a glimpse of tradition
    Ahmedabad interactive and shaded streets .

    The structure is designed according to the cluster


    formation which are interconnected with different
    phases .The academic block is some whole based on the
    Grid Pattern.
    SITE SECTION
    The campus is zoned out into institutional block towards
    north with orientation along north-south helps in keeping
    the block natural lit and also restricting it away from sound
    prone areas .

    It consists of workshops ,labs, classrooms ,studios


    ,resource center ,offices showrooms etc. .

    The interaction zone consists of convocation plaza


    ,auditoriums and design showrooms with each unit
    consisting of sloping roof merging with landscape as a
    public space .

    The residential zone consists of separate buildings of girls


    and boys hostel also faculty residence and canteen .
    They are zoned out separately away from the public zone
    towards east side maintaining it privacy .
    The spaces in ground floor phase-I is planed The first floor consist of various labs likes historic
    around the atriums . process lab, mac lab ,digital lab ,mechatronics lab
    and studios like LAD studio and photography studio .
    This indirect opening provided ample light and
    ventilation .
    CROSS-SECTION THROUGH OPEN FORUM AND RAMP: ACADEMIC BLOCK
    Design blend on climatic conditions
    • incorporates a medieval street with buildings opening on to the path while
    the individual structures bring in the sun patterns, while flanked by
    greenery around as well as on their roofs. Deep recesses shade the
    buildings from the harsh sun while the north side is left open for entry. The
    low structure is craftily designed to merge into the landscape, thus
    blending the built and unbuilt spaces into a sustainable compact
    experience.

    • Courtyards with their concrete trellis further allow diffused light to filter in,
    forming interesting patterns while cutting heat ingress. Arches prevail, each
    cut into interesting unconventional forms, their slants cutting the heat
    while serving as structural art in the courtyard. The lounge for the faculty
    reveals equally interesting design and experience, the walls folded without
    a set pattern or rhythm, yet forming the poetic rhythm of the space.
    Architectural Features
    • The office building ‘Trellis’ reveals his unique design inclination. Structured
    30 ft. wide and 80 ft. high, it had to be shielded from heavy rains and
    intense heat, the bane of Mumbai city. Kapadia came up with a solution by
    opting for a skin for the building that also served as an aesthetic façade.

    • This took the form of a shield made from perforated aluminium, where the
    jaali permitted ventilation and natural light, yet served as a protective
    armour. The porous façade was punctured to break the monotony of the
    aluminium shield, the windows wrapped in grills emerging in these
    punctures where they were ingeniously slanted to cut the harsh light. And
    also appearing as a deliberate aesthetic intervention in the structure.
