'Open Source' scheme

This is one of the 'Open Source' schemes- debated and edited by Jaya, Atul, Shibani and myself. It plays with the actual program on a site plan.

Key:

White- common facilities/ public incl. National resource centre, auditorium etc.

Yellow- residential

Red- Architecture (UG)

Black- Planning (UG)

Blue- PG Departments.

Green coloured arear are existing woodland.

Brown line is public shortcut (pedestrian/ cycle/ rickshaw) through site
Grey is vehicular and parking.
Green is pedestrian and cycle.

The three movement vectors overlap with each other in the western part of the site and start diverging near the centre of the site. There is a fourth movement vector in the form of an internal passage which connects all PG and UG studios in a single run at the third floor level. The character of the passage changes from corridor to verandah to bridge and so does its height and width. There are overlaps and intersections between the vectors thereby encouraging random/ chance interactions.
