The process of the design of the poster began with the understanding of what the topic entails. This led to several explorations and helped with the following elements being categorized and shown through the work. Light: The play of light on materials and surfaces inside a space hugely impacts how the spaces are perceived. Numinosity: The element of spirituality is heightened by the feeling of numinosity. This emotion is triggered by several elements of design. Through the poster the aim was to integrate the key elements in a manner to convey the idea of the thesis.

The split roof is the highlight of the structure, enabling part of the structure to act as a viewing deck. The other half allows the users to gaze at the stars through the skylight as they comfortably lay on the floor. A cantilever beam supports the viewing deck projecting from the roof, to ensure the safety of the users. Strategic placement of columns has resulted in creation of larger multifunctional spaces surrounded by smaller pockets of semi open areas. The planters in the structure give a sublime look to the space, while also establishing a visual accessibility across the ground floor and the dog legged staircase. Beyond the roof

It opened the doors for free trade through the government policies in the name of development. Over the years these reforms have led to a centralized economy in the nation, recently leading the private organizations to influence the drafting of government policies. The effects of the centralized system is evidently seen through the “development” of the urban centres, solely. The development pattern depends on these urban centres which somehow have ill effects on the rural parts of the nation. This leads to an unhealthy connection between the rural & urban parts of India, usually in the form of Brain Drain, through the medium of migration. M.K.Gandhi through his writings & speeches always preached about the importance of a decentralized economy wherein the villages forms the foundation of nation building in all aspects. The Gandhian Philosophy of Decentralization aims to envision all the distinct authorization bodies at different levels to be on one equal platform, with equal delegation of authority, unlike the centralized system that follows a hierarchic pattern leading to discrepancies in terms of monetary as well as authorization factors. The enhancement of a decentralized system is a path ahead towards a sustainable habitat of the nation, not just economically, but also to attain a lovable living condition.

The city is known as the ‘Orange city’ of the country. This unique identity is due to the peculiar variety of oranges cultivated in this region. Owing to the characteristics of the variety with origin in the city, Nagpur received the geographical Indication(GI) status for the same in 2014. Mandarin orange, also known as Nagpur santra now, is the common type of orange widely cultivated in the region. It was brought to Nagpur by the then ruler, towards the end of the 18th century. The fruit soon became very popular and Nagpur got known for its orange cultivation gaining a certain reputation in the Indian market. However, the identity is not exploited in a public realm. There is no identified platform between the farmers/producers and the citizens where they can market and share their experience of the entire process. It is only spoken about and can be heard in news articles. There is no place in and around the city through which the sense of identity can be perceived. Thus, there is a need to reinforce this identity and exploit it beyond the tag. The study revolves around understanding the farming scenario worldwide to further narrow it down at the city level. The process will also generate a dialogue with the farmers being the primary producers and understanding the obstacles faced by them in their occupation as a farmer. This will also aid to understand the scope of the fruit in the processing industry. The objective is to reduce the gap between farmer and consumer and allow direct benefits to the primary producer. The larger aim is to create an association for the people thereby strengthening the identity for the city holistically. The idea revolves around the farming and the allied programs that can be derived, considering orange as the key produce along with other crops depending on their coexistence. Developing various programs based on the scope of the fruit to engage the people in an interactive way, also building a farmer- consumer relationship. Such an intervention will not only motivate the farmers but also create tourism opportunities for the people through agriculture, consequently boosting the agricultural economy of the region. Such a series of developments will add a new layer to the city thus contributing towards its economy and identity for the future. Reinforcing Nagpur’s identity as ‘Orange city’, thereby creating a layer of citizen association.

Sacred Architecture has the ability to help its users transcend physicality. But what is this character of Sacred Architecture that Transcends the sense of Physicality and immerses itself in the realm of the intangible? Spirituality is often not about the divine, it is about perceiving the process of life at its fullest potential. Spirituality is to see something for exactly what it is and not a version envisioned in your mind. Transcendence is the ability to go beyond the range of limits of a field (of act or conceptual sphere). The ability to transcend is to elevate yourself beyond the physicality of this realm. Sacred Architecture allows you to feel this Spirituality and hence allows you to Transcend the physical Realm. The true character of Transcending Architecture is its ability to change your emotion to that of a pleasant one. This mood or emotion you feel is what allows you to imbibe your surroundings, allowing you to perceive what truly exists and hence facilitates the notion of Spirituality and Transcendence. This form of Architecture is the tangible means to see, feel and experience Sacredness and Transcendence. The Spiritual Transcendence of Sacred Architecture
