Shivani Mehta, Ar. Anisha Mehta, Ar. Ronak Savla, Ar. Nikita Sharma : : : : : : : : : : : Can an app have a real-life prototype that resembles and displays how the app works? The Appsolute exercise in Semester 1 pushed us to do just that. We made a 3d working model which showed how the OkCupid app worked. We later made a graphic for it on an individual level. The vertical cylinders in the center of the graphic symbolize the different profiles which we see on the app. The ramp is the pathway on which one can walk and see these different profiles. Each person using the app (or the model in this case ) has 2 options, either to like a profile or ignore it. If the person wants to like a profile, they swipe right in the app. In the graphic, the user rotates the cylinder in a clockwise direction, which then makes the cylinder fall down and hit a metal surface, making a ringing sound, which resembles the notification sound the person being liked gets on their phone.

The process involved tracing the painting and analyzing the spaces. Further, this was analyzed through a set of technical drawings, which helped understand the anthropometry of the human body. After the analysis, we had to enact body postures of a scene from the painting and create the diagram with proper anthropometric measurements. Further, these body postures were perceived as an interaction with the cityscape in the modern-day era. Previous Next Body And Movement In Space 2

The cities have fairly adapted to these changes in every aspect due to the over growing population, change in housing typology and the economical changes. There are noticeable changes in the housing typology as well which can be visually noticed even though not experienced. There are various housing typologies observed in the cities depending on various demographics such as number of occupants in the family, types of user groups, age groups,etc. Making it a subjective topic. Due to rapid urbanization, cities are growing day by day and also there is a demand for the residential sector because of migration and also the cities are getting denser and highly populated. Present day need for shelter is increasing due to an increase in population. Hence, housing and redevelopment is a subject of curiosity among the working class of the city. The construction of high density low-rise housing apartments was an attractive option for lower and middle-income buyers as the cost of construction is less for such developments making the purchase affordable for them. In such dense living environments, it is important to know whether the social and psychological needs of people are fulfilled in order to achieve a healthy physical environment. Housing is a composite commodity that fulfills various needs. It is not just a dwelling unit because it is required to fulfill various human needs of socializing, security, engagement with the neighborhood, etc.The needs of humans are vast apart from just a basis need for shelter it is important to be well informed about the social spaces in a community living and how it molds the social lifestyle of a person. The relationship between humans and the built environment is diverse and also it helps use to understand their idea of socializing and adaptive measures to be taken while proposing a redevelopment project in such scenarios. The study tries to find out many ways of establishing social well being in redeveloped structures and how to engage people in socializing and community based interactions. It also studies the life in chawls in urban context and the use of space or their adaptive activities in order to live in chawls. Keywords: Social well being, community spaces, built environment, communal spaces, interactive neighborhood. Reviving Community Interactions and Activities in the Neighborhood

This involves numerous types of drawings, each of which highlights surfaces parallel to one of the three planes. These views were carefully drafted, giving utmost importance to neatness and line intensities. Further detailing can be represented by exploding or cutting through these three-dimensional views. The drawings include isometric views, axonometric views, oblique views and one-point and two-point views. The said views were explored by representing smaller objects as well as larger contexts to gain a wholesome understanding of what each drawing conveyed the best. These exercises prove to be essential when it comes to decision making regarding what drawing to choose to best explain one’s design. Previous Next ARD Portfolio 1

Both companies believe in research and the development of new, innovative ideas, proposals not only for projects but also for self-research and recommendations to government and private organizations. When we compare international and Indian firms, we can see that both have a more stratified hierarchy and authority, with specific tasks assigned to each member, whereas in a smaller firm, multitasking is common, and such specific boundaries are blurred. There is a disparity in the number of workers. MVVA primarily works on public and government projects, utilizing its large size and superior technologies to design the entire project in a shorter period. Satish Khanna Associates, on the other hand, works on a greater number of private-public projects and employs less technology, necessitating a prolonged design phase. Context and community play a bigger role in MVVA. Satish Khanna is an associate on the landscape that supports the architecture, and they work on autonomous land key initiatives such as parks. Finally, even though the two firms are based in different countries and contexts, we can see similarities in the way they operate. Case Study Satish Khanna Associates and MVVA

These spaces are less focused on productivity all-in-all they are different physical components coming together to facilitate the implementation of abstracted functions of a particular mobile application. Amazon app is a part of the e-commerce industry and one of the largest online retailers with the vision of Earth's most customer-centric company and to build a place where people come to find and discover anything they might want to buy online. The space developed is for the Amazon app, where Filter and Discount are the core functions employed in the design. The concepts showcasing the feature of 'filter' were to show variation, Radiation, Similarity, narrowing down, Common region, Accuracy, swift, and that of 'Discount' was Ease and Inbuilt. The space features different slits of filters, each with a different mechanism and human interaction. Discount, as a function, has been developed using two distinct pathways - one being an ordinary way while the other slightly elevated, making the child travel a greater distance and apply greater strength to reach near the main screen. This design is suitable in a kindergarten, where the children can use it to play. SET GO

Authentic Representation - Gender, sex and Sexual Orientation and Inclusivity (Winner) Previous Next Email Semester Competition Name Student Name Tanaya Nadkarni Cieda Huluku Design Competition X tanayan17@aoamumbai.in : : : : : : : Competition Brief: The huluku competition is all about inspiring creative inclusion in the digital art and design world and promoting the development of inclusive digital art which reflects the world. Narrative: The theme of Sexual orientation under the umbrella theme of inclusivity arose from a slinky. It is a spiraled spring toy that creates beautiful flexible patterns of blending colors when it is played with. This is one perspective to look at Sexual orientation- not always permanent with beautiful fluid blending. Furthermore, when it comes to the roles we take up in society, these need to highlight not our labels but our contributions towards the growth of it all. Today, many humans have gone beyond educational stereotypes purely based on their prowesses. This needs to be acknowledged and encouraged.
