The project is focused towards understanding the construction materials, sustainable techniques and plantation style required for site development of the built forms for the Architectural Design project - Community center (Co-living facility for Aspiring Actor), designed in Semester 4.
The first step in this process was understanding the existing contours on site, and then modifying them so as to help in the ease of water drainage on site. Necessary plans have been created to show these applications on site. The addition of rain gardens helps in percolation of water into the soil, thus increasing the underground water table. Aluminum-steel gratings have been proposed around the tree trunks, to help in increasing the absorption of water content. Rain water harvesting system has also been proposed, with rainwater downtake pipes on top of the built structures to further help in making this a sustainable project.
