Initially, it started with having a story in mind. The story was based on a conspiracy theory, of DO ALIENS EXIST? We all have our theory on this topic and I have mine too. The story is about how aliens are the supersmart living on Mars, how they have the most unique inventions, machinery, and some amazing technology which is the future of technology for earthlings. But they lack one thing that the earthlings are blessed with and that is ‘Nature’, and now their entire focus is directed towards replicating nature. The planet where these aliens live in the ‘ Marsiverse’. How ironic is the fact that the earthlings are creating more and more technology and in turn hampering Nature which is so abundant here whereas aliens are trying their best and creating the best technology to create Nature! This story gave rise to the illustration that you are viewing right now!

It helped explore various colour schemes, alignments and text styles. Efforts were made to integrate basic principles of eye movement and flow, into the composed spread. Trying out concept sketches to decide the placement of texts and graphics on the encyclopedia spread helped decide on a more balanced composition. The importance of design principles - hierarchy, emphasis & rule of thirds, was understood through the composition process. Previous Next Natural Phenomena

The Groups Were Divided And Instructed To Document The Dimensions Of The Body While Doing The Activities In The Assigned Position. Within The Groups, Members Were Given Different Activities. The Documentation Included Taking Photographs From All Sides While Doing The Activity And Making The List Of The Dimensions Which Created A Bank For Future Reference. After Noting Down All The Dimensions Of The Group Members, Average Male And Average Female Dimensions Were Calculated Within The Group Members Of The Given Position. Further, It Was Required To Imagine And Sketch Two Different Situations In The Assigned Position. In My Case, I Had To Imagine Myself In A Situation That Matched The Position Of ‘squatting And Sweeping The Floor With Broom’ As It Was The Activity Assigned To Me. ‘a Gargoyle Sitting On The Exterior Of A Church’ And ‘a Man Sitting Near The Campfire’ Are The Two Imaginary Situations That Matched The Sitting Position Of The Given Activity.

The exercise focused on representation and detailing, in order to improve the composition skills. It helped us to visualize various texts in a graphical format on an A3 sheet to be viewed as an encyclopedia spread. Alignment, text sizes, fonts, color schemes, margins and gutters were taken into consideration while designing the spread. Previous Next Sizzling Brownie

Shweta Sonakia : : : : : : : : : : : Cuadra San Cristobal, located in Mexico, was designed by landscape and minimalist architect Luis Barragan for his fellow rider friend Egerstom in the year 1966. The entire area of the structure is classified into different zones based on the flooring type and zoned out as the water body, the sand (main arena), the lawn, and the abandoned land used for the training of horses. The majority of the site area has been provided with different activities for the horses. The main feature of the structure is the water body and the pink wall. The silence of the huge arena is enhanced by the sound of the fountain – a thick stream of water spouted in an arch drawing inspiration from the Mexican ranches. The pink wall emphasizes the division between the residential area and the stable area as the public and private spaces. The vegetation beyond the pink wall subtle outs the dramatic effect by giving it a more earthy look. The pink wall gives the vision of the landscape beyond it. The overall colors create a dramatic effect. The colors, bold and intentional, allowing the sun to cast different stories each hour of the day on the wide arenas.

This dynamic interface between elements enhances it to the fullest. Landscape as Habitat Habitat is a homogenous living cycle of flora, fauna and humans. The settlement is ever changing due to human activities and forces of nature of wind, light and precipitation which aid in choosing the apt location of life to flourish. This land transformation due to the forces generated two man made habitats in the location-rural based & fort structure which work in coordination. Landscape as system The place emanates a strong identity of a systematic structure. This system in return shapes the landform. This influence on land & water with respect to various hydrology and geological processes are evident in these areas. Kochi

Shweta Sonakia : : : : : : : : : : : The site is a ravine, with granite mountains soaring heights, covered in pine forests, and the Storelva river flowing along the valley. The architecture is designed along an existing pathway that leads to the old mining sites. It is experienced as a journey along this pathway starting from the service buildings viz. The parking and toilets, then along the pathway a cafeteria and then the gallery museum and a staging area, the journey ends at the mining sites. The region exhibits difficult terrain but magnificent scenery, thus the placement of the structures is in accordance with creating vantage points to capture most of the diverse landscape from within, regardless of the terrain. The sites chosen are such that the sightlines from the individual structures do not disturb one another, and the structures though physically isolated remain visually connected (appear connected) as one approaches the journey. Landscape thus plays a key role in the experience from the outside and the architecture is simple black boxes that are supported on a laminated timber frame. The textural quality and color palette of the chosen materials is in conformity with the landscape, thus most of the material is sourced from the region itself such as the natural stone from Hardinger and local timber. The architect has intentionally used zinc as a material for certain features to connect the architecture with the mining industry. The project exhibits duality in multiple aspects, the stark difference between the experience of the landscape and the experience within the structures explores this aspect. The relationship between the landscape and architecture is also dual wherein at times the blackboxes complement the gray rock formations, and at times they stand out in contrast with the green cover (summer) another aspect of camouflage is experienced when snow takes over the landscape (winter). The journey along the pathway comprising discoveries and complexities uses landscape to create an experience that makes the users feel as strenuous as the life of the miners were. Variety of the landscape strives to be bound together as an experience, through the movement along the pathway unfolding Unity in the architecture of the individual pavilions.
