Welcome to my past and present. This is a digitized collection of selected works, both academic and professional. They represent my penchant for social advocacy, environmental consciousness, theoretical basslines, geometric and literary romanticism, trans-scalar and trans-disciplinary execution, and vernacular piquancy. I find great pleasure in questioning quotidian human behavior and addressing problems of inequity, social polarisation, and capitalist mayhem. I love writing, creating, and enacting stories, fiction and non-fiction, though I have a predilection for real-world criticism. The following is a smorgasbord of projects, studies, texts, and professional work. Bon Appétit.

Situated in a third world environment, the Peruvian government was unable to satiate the need for basic amenities and facilities in the countryside. These areas battled underdeveloped infrastructure, lack of education and healthcare, the dearth of work opportunities, and mass poverty. The move to the nation’s capital came from the search for economic opportunity and essential social and civic services and infrastructure. With power and wealth concentrated towards the western flank of Lima, inchoate and upcoming barriadas in the North and East foothills remain neglected and impoverished. One such neighborhood is El Ermitano, located on the western flank of the ridge. Since the cost of development on the hills is far more expensive than the lowlands, the State’s limited funds have the perfect alibi to not arrive in such underdeveloped neighborhoods. The residents at the lower rungs of the economic food chain, live with only legal squatting rights and devoid of basic infrastructure. With El Ermitano as a test site, this project explores the next phase of formal-informal negotiations. What is visible is the trajectory rejoining the cult of neoliberalism which is at an impasse, and may well be terminal.1&nbsp; With land pre-established as a commodified resource, experimentation for the sake of welfare is eclipsed by profit-making, splitting society into the haves and have nots. The latter is caught in a limbo of underdevelopment and neglect with dubious ownership statuses. What is the next step in these negotiations? With the bottom-up restricted to self-help dwellings and mediocre urban decisions, can formal systems be re-engineered to provide greater informal agency and allow the bottom-up to support the State’s inadequate funds and unconscious intent? Can new scales and typologies of open-work be explored to limit top-down order and foster the barriadas’ innate social and vernacular piquancy? <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/292103e1bbf98bd2fc3cf2f4186b54caf3c5488bb71acbe6ceee2d37ffd9fd9b/200618_Professional-Portfolio11.jpg" data-mid="76910536" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/292103e1bbf98bd2fc3cf2f4186b54caf3c5488bb71acbe6ceee2d37ffd9fd9b/200618_Professional-Portfolio11.jpg" /> collage / housing histories and the progression of open-work Kitchen sink realism The contemporary neoliberal environment establishes commodification as a prerequisite for free and fair trade. Of all commodities, “land is no longer a resource, or “standing reserve,” to plunder for the sake of profit.”2&nbsp; Sitting comfortably in perpetual economic turbulence, capital players, who have also affected State intentions and obligations, siege the monopoly of income, landholdings, and other commodities. With widening economic and opportunity gaps, they have established themselves as ‘economy-resistant superbugs’ with little or no threat of any calamity or crisis. With power and wealth concentrated towards the western flank of Lima, inchoate or upcoming barriadas in the North and East slopes remain neglected and impoverished. As the city’s built fabric densified multifold over the past half-century, state funds do not reach the periphery (primarily hilly regions and peri-urban communities) equally as they are most expensive to develop. Highly infectious, the urban sprawl of these barriadas grow up and over the foothills and linking new neighborhoods and countryside, consuming most of the natural ecosystem. Since the cost of development on the hills is far more expensive than the lowlands, the State’s limited funds have the perfect alibi to not arrive in such underdeveloped neighborhoods. Similar to the frazzling formal grid from the west to up the hills in the east (which is an obvious geographic response), the quality and quantity of formal infrastructure and civic amenities also dwindle. For example, not even central water lines reach the hills, enforcing a dependency on local water tanks that are filled with insufficient frequency. The players (people) of these barriadas resemble the proletariats and precariats of a social realism drama, trapped in the limbo of neglect, economic stagnancy, and constant architectural depreciation. Architectural adaptation, systemic evolution The collective kitchen emerged at a moment of political protest and domestic subsistence in barriadas. Intending to fulfill domestic nutrition, it overcame the problem of spatial and programmatic redundancy. The intersection of domestic labor with subsidized supplies promoted a new formal-informal negotiation. The comedores populares displayed the potential for restoring social idiosyncrasies and magnetizing additional urban development. What if this potential urban magnetism is bolstered to spawn local activity and additionally attract State and private funding for selective development? Offsprings of collective living and shared resources, popularly discussed in contemporary architecture as commoning, emerge out of the effort of a community to pool its resources and share them equitably3 with a constant denial of human error. Since “resources are not owned but are a commonwealth”4, their prolonged existence as capital-emancipated assets is threatened by a materially infatuated and morally flawed social context. Unless existing in complete economic isolation with immaculate subsistence, commoning is likely to collapse under its vulnerability and loop back into terminal neoliberalism. Instead of perfecting a capital-free and morally upstanding collective society, one can allow its constant flaws, errors, and failures to behave as recurring moments of correction. Establishing systems of reciprocity, resources can function as toggles to allow targeted upliftment of such neglected barriadas. Turning architecture from formal and monumental entities to a set of deployable platforms and props, one can reverse engineer local economies into pseudo-capitalists to engage in the neoliberal world but benefit locally through an egalitarian agenda. This agenda of localized civil disobedience, bolsters the intent of commoning, mutating to a system of resource, economic and urban collaboration. The application of this collaboration lies in the ethos and potentials of the comedores populares. Extracting the ability of food and the collective kitchen to allure more urban and collective activity, they can become the central program of this civil disobedience. A democratically instituted grassroot association is given the responsibility to execute hyperlink contracts and mobilize resident funds. Turning barriadas into an ensemble of hyperlinks, these contracts, governed locally and overseen by the State, re-arranges individual dwellings into legal families of collective contribution, responsibility, benefit, and governance. Through a social and economic potluck, small endemic economies can be reverse-engineered into pseudo-capitalists to engage in the neoliberal world, and simultaneously benefit locally through an egalitarian agenda, breeding ‘capital-constructive antidotes’. The formal-informal dialogue is dissolved and reborn as a descendant-ascendant negotiation to alleviate the State from complete financial and political responsibility. State funds are limited to building and governing urban systems and infrastructure. These may include roads and bus stops, a denser network of politically colored staircases (endemic to Peru) and water tanks, retaining walls, initial investment on renewable energy systems, and the surveillance of grassroot contracts. The residents are levied with the responsibility to execute hyperlink contracts and small scale interventions. <img width="2479" height="3238" width_o="2479" height_o="3238" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4db73db7e25f8c6ab9905b0a50cda8c227b31d9019a5a7ee8cac2c82c2a56d89/200326_theorising-1.jpg" data-mid="76911650" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4db73db7e25f8c6ab9905b0a50cda8c227b31d9019a5a7ee8cac2c82c2a56d89/200326_theorising-1.jpg" /> <img width="2479" height="3317" width_o="2479" height_o="3317" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cb7fda639f0911814deb19da6c2f516ded140c3da4f07c40adeb925d222e295d/200326_theorising-3.jpg" data-mid="76911651" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cb7fda639f0911814deb19da6c2f516ded140c3da4f07c40adeb925d222e295d/200326_theorising-3.jpg" /> <img width="2347" height="2425" width_o="2347" height_o="2425" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c8144e8cda294d96c952fd9b8699461f383055e925076d326e56b15f232a6e3a/200326_theorising-4.jpg" data-mid="76911652" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c8144e8cda294d96c952fd9b8699461f383055e925076d326e56b15f232a6e3a/200326_theorising-4.jpg" /> <img width="2479" height="3317" width_o="2479" height_o="3317" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c6aceb9ff1d4bb264ac38bb794f719415d598188b74bab2c9e57d96c45f30150/200326_theorising-5.jpg" data-mid="76911653" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c6aceb9ff1d4bb264ac38bb794f719415d598188b74bab2c9e57d96c45f30150/200326_theorising-5.jpg" /> sketches / economic, systemic, spatial and social re-adjustments 01. A case of terminal neolibralism. With pandemic commodification of almost everything, you are left with two routes - a “happily ever after” where humanity comes togther is heroic albiet romantic fashion and shares everything or the real option where humanity is a never learning parasite and returns back to its state of neoliberal capitalism and calls it “beinghuman”. Or a third way is to allow failures of humanity to be extracted as a resource and reapply as if the economiy was a series of controllable toggles and allow reciprocative behaviour and achive targeted results and socio-economic upliftment. 02. The dissolution of the binaries of labour. Domesitc and proctive labour is unified to produced one unbiased labour allotted to all genders and cultural and social divions. Labour is infact labour. (addition) 03. Respectiing the need for a private family or solo realm, the binary of public is private is maintained, but the singularity of th epublic realms is divided into tiers of absolutes and semis. Parts of the housefront fuse with the urban outdoors, parts mutate into urban indoors with economic and soacial functiosn and parts become semis or transitions between all. (reduction) 04. Once available to be plugged in to the urban outdoors, redefined households and housefronts are subjected to a social and economic gravitation where the interior and exterious housfronts and businesses are contributed collectively to form the potluck. This hyperlinking turns small solo businesses into more stable collective with profits, liabilities and advancedments shared leading to collective and beneift. The permanency of the private indoors and the fluidity of economic contracts, social milieu and urban furniture and props presents the area as a fusion of sedentism and nomadism. 05. To overcome problems of conflict or the emergence of unequal access and distribution, egalitarian beneift is placed as a supreme target by allowing potlucks to keep apprprating legally by allowing contracts to be rearrange businesses. This Turns the hillside into a living organism of economic and social activity. <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/701230bb8da39b209263f03328f0fd7c4bf7ab780e6b6168bb86e8f2d5a3328e/200618_Professional-Portfolio.jpg" data-mid="76910533" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/701230bb8da39b209263f03328f0fd7c4bf7ab780e6b6168bb86e8f2d5a3328e/200618_Professional-Portfolio.jpg" /> collage / urban model - clustering, potlucking and sharing economic and political responsibility <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/340550136447800ea070dda44a42e8c22b85b84a490380083b0a4681a50447e6/IMG_6411.jpg" data-mid="76912606" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/340550136447800ea070dda44a42e8c22b85b84a490380083b0a4681a50447e6/IMG_6411.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f38153929644683e59cdd38f6d4723511ba0b1c95f86404eed0f58b3e2f5077e/IMG_6423.jpg" data-mid="76912604" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f38153929644683e59cdd38f6d4723511ba0b1c95f86404eed0f58b3e2f5077e/IMG_6423.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/794a5115bbb717cf4ff747baf52e3eaf7e842045c4aa1e79b379d22fc26b8b74/IMG_6416.jpg" data-mid="76912605" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/794a5115bbb717cf4ff747baf52e3eaf7e842045c4aa1e79b379d22fc26b8b74/IMG_6416.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/90f14ee899c58a8cdc5f07883590025f46d441f9ec0f3e85097e72a14ce7e763/IMG_6404.jpg" data-mid="76912601" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/90f14ee899c58a8cdc5f07883590025f46d441f9ec0f3e85097e72a14ce7e763/IMG_6404.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/71cbd4a5457aca274cc4a13ecc1edaf122fdbdfbb59499e4e191d903bc6e813d/IMG_6446.jpg" data-mid="76912602" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/71cbd4a5457aca274cc4a13ecc1edaf122fdbdfbb59499e4e191d903bc6e813d/IMG_6446.jpg" /> <img width="4032" height="3024" width_o="4032" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7d02674b4f2c1a43b020b0afc1695b94c1ff654e26ba010efc5d2f6a1c9d1ed9/IMG_6439.jpg" data-mid="76912603" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7d02674b4f2c1a43b020b0afc1695b94c1ff654e26ba010efc5d2f6a1c9d1ed9/IMG_6439.jpg" /> model / recreating potlucks of El Ermitano with multiple degrees of spatial contribution <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4404ff9481bdee100191808aa851702e6481d1315be3330a8bb58dcbc2492fca/site-potlucks.jpg" data-mid="76911299" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4404ff9481bdee100191808aa851702e6481d1315be3330a8bb58dcbc2492fca/site-potlucks.jpg" /> <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ef26755864e6db02c88a78719c6e57f80ebd5fffec44378c7477dd5119e4f7ef/site-potlucks2.jpg" data-mid="76911300" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ef26755864e6db02c88a78719c6e57f80ebd5fffec44378c7477dd5119e4f7ef/site-potlucks2.jpg" /> model, collage / urban model - 01 / social and economic hyperlinking to form potlucks; 02 / network of roads, bus stops and staircases; 03 / network of water tanks; 04 / blockage of greenhouses, 05 / spread of comedores populares; 06 / arboreal wall <img width="864" height="1296" width_o="864" height_o="1296" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/628645ee59ed8105545f96bbdc9d474707eb4cab910fbf01a8465807bc604565/Pointy-Gif-slower.gif" data-mid="77080502" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/864/i/628645ee59ed8105545f96bbdc9d474707eb4cab910fbf01a8465807bc604565/Pointy-Gif-slower.gif" /> <img width="1728" height="1118" width_o="1728" height_o="1118" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/559225aca0829ef010114aed63ab438408069b186491e3f421da31ad6d5cb1f7/GIF-3.gif" data-mid="77080508" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/559225aca0829ef010114aed63ab438408069b186491e3f421da31ad6d5cb1f7/GIF-3.gif" /> gif, model / tiers of potlucks gif, images / settlemts on the hills, Lima Labor is labor The foundation of this reciprocity simultaneously lies in redefining the unit of space and program. Barriadas are characteristic of commercial, recreational, and domestic activity sprouting organically and coexisting in close proximity. Combining reproductive/domestic labor with productive labor, the domestic space is spatially united with commercial and institutional activity. The summation of space and labor, generates ambiguity, threatening clichés of gender-defined roles and bias against domestic labor. Spatial synchronicity of domestic and work spaces is experienced as a triad of untouched private interiors, publically accessible ‘housefronts’, and a potential urban ‘front-of-the-house’ for domestic and productive interplay. The top-down-bottom-up milieu of the comedores populares is hence made contagious to be adopted by other domestic and non-domestic programs. The semantic and architectural reciprocity is experienced in the form of a collective land readjustment where housefronts in close proximity gravitate towards each other to form clusters or potlucks of accepted and contracted “familiality” and stewardship. This readjustment is also experienced as a collective contribution of private commercial spaces under a collective cluster contract where earnings are shared, ranging from walls to interfaces, to rooms and right up to complete floors, depending upon the domestic capacity and changing family units and needs. Housefronts and potlucks Housefronts display domestic mutation by either activating urban areas as domesticated spaces or temporally shifting from commercial to non-commercial activities. For example, barbershops become simultaneous living rooms with music entertaining customers, family, and friends. Schools function as institutions by day and cinemas by evening. Printing and repair shops become vocational studios. And collective kitchens interpolate between restaurants and dining rooms. Respecting the limited space, diverse needs and changing conditions, these front-of-the-house potlucks, celebrate barriadas as a natural social and urban system, eradicating the formal-informal divide. John Turner‘s rationale for accepting barriadas as the form of development was based on them understanding what they need instead of being driven by an external force (i.e. State). The domestic unit exists as an island - a private untouched zone and a housefront behaving as an urban interiorization. Simultaneously, all domestic islands collaborate under contract as a collection of spatially contributing and economically sharing as a programmatic potluck. To activate another layer of reciprocity, these contracts bind dwellings through a lease system that may allow them to gravitate to another adjacent potluck based on changing needs. With room for amendments, this neighborhood of hyperlinks behaves like a living organism showing constant flux. Enabling both domestic and non-domestic activities, they allow for the sedentism of contemporary life to exist in parallel with the nomadism of their ever-changing needs. Grassroot agency governs the realization and appropriation of collaboration contracts in accordance with altering needs. Instead of social currencies in commoning practices, capital and commercial gains of clusters can be used for both private and collective welfare after the proper discharge of funds. With smaller independent clusters, they behave as families, overcoming the diversity problem of large collectives and cooperatives. Catering to more communal and public needs, back-of-the-house clusters can provide for congregation, demonstration, and recreation. Owned by the state but governed at the grassroot level, they can function as gardens, playgrounds, and larger healthcare and educational institutions. <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fffae86d7849d3e3638ecd29b2e16cb32e47fc1d37dfdc8e3a21bb7d23c7b50d/IMG_6049.JPG" data-mid="77080729" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fffae86d7849d3e3638ecd29b2e16cb32e47fc1d37dfdc8e3a21bb7d23c7b50d/IMG_6049.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/79729baf41643cad0a32c57ea755541649e7e7c0c1f6a07d7a2b1c7c685b0a4b/IMG_6042.JPG" data-mid="77080728" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/79729baf41643cad0a32c57ea755541649e7e7c0c1f6a07d7a2b1c7c685b0a4b/IMG_6042.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/853b89f378dca57b7f384829ce71c5f2560d87318e39da4be6990467643e0f33/IMG_5927.JPG" data-mid="77080730" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/853b89f378dca57b7f384829ce71c5f2560d87318e39da4be6990467643e0f33/IMG_5927.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/55674d62d7dbebec07c65246be39fdca5239f43a3aad543d290710cec5c4fc1b/IMG_5955.JPG" data-mid="77080731" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/55674d62d7dbebec07c65246be39fdca5239f43a3aad543d290710cec5c4fc1b/IMG_5955.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2f031faa82eea0fb441580a8a376fe5738798eb482022caed50cf96675af9442/IMG_5959.JPG" data-mid="77080732" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2f031faa82eea0fb441580a8a376fe5738798eb482022caed50cf96675af9442/IMG_5959.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d2a5a16d84305d4e2b85165b5f72fffd8523375dc8b1230e738bc754bbb20bc3/IMG_5967.JPG" data-mid="77080738" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d2a5a16d84305d4e2b85165b5f72fffd8523375dc8b1230e738bc754bbb20bc3/IMG_5967.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0eaca19f72458ab93f18c260890ff616661a20157eb23e2131a71b19ad6afab6/IMG_5975.JPG" data-mid="77080744" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0eaca19f72458ab93f18c260890ff616661a20157eb23e2131a71b19ad6afab6/IMG_5975.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ce3df5327ebcfba03f97b81792200a575e66535b5a8c7e1ec5dc817d9fe204fa/IMG_5980.JPG" data-mid="77080749" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ce3df5327ebcfba03f97b81792200a575e66535b5a8c7e1ec5dc817d9fe204fa/IMG_5980.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4a0650f5a573bdcaf7c0da8d25760e6db540dce0e898fec3de0213f79c73dc32/IMG_6001.JPG" data-mid="77080765" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4a0650f5a573bdcaf7c0da8d25760e6db540dce0e898fec3de0213f79c73dc32/IMG_6001.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ee12da891401fe3017c595fc6b752710f61e4f133d4a27ffc31fdda3d63061f7/IMG_6014.JPG" data-mid="77080766" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ee12da891401fe3017c595fc6b752710f61e4f133d4a27ffc31fdda3d63061f7/IMG_6014.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6626518e01355222b83fec3efaf1b760db1935c4b41656929f98c45457d352a5/IMG_6022.JPG" data-mid="77080767" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6626518e01355222b83fec3efaf1b760db1935c4b41656929f98c45457d352a5/IMG_6022.JPG" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/67f0e2f2de08c644ebb15c71b6bdd332a5f5329f926f431950cd9d8e0166573e/IMG_6032.JPG" data-mid="77080727" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/67f0e2f2de08c644ebb15c71b6bdd332a5f5329f926f431950cd9d8e0166573e/IMG_6032.JPG" /> model /&nbsp;Lima housefronts&nbsp;

With constant sprawl and densification, any form of reciprocity will eventually turn into compromise and effectively lead up to failure. Acute provincialism causes urban centers to turn into sprawls, effectively becoming cesspools of disease, poverty, friction, and even war. Instead of only inculcating metropolitan resolution, stopping the city can help reorient the State’s focus to develop the countryside and rural areas. “While roads are often treated as the means to deliver progress and access, they encourage overdevelopment that destroys valuable resources embedded in forests and indigenous cultures.”5 Additionally, with the city growing to the top of the hill, the natural ecosystem of the hill and its seismic fidelity are jeopardized. This focus on “limit the city” is encouraged through three phases. The first is overdevelopment of the already developed region of the hill by introducing hemi-structures to relocate small dwellings towards the top of the hill and making room for future immigrants. Like Athenian Polykatoikias, these structures will be inhabited for temporary urban needs when vacant and later occupied by newcomers to the neighborhood by simply introducing walls. The second phase is the resurrection of the first wave in an urban context. Open fields and greenhouses will be set to form a blockade and transform the urban setting into a peri-urban one. Supplying to comedores populares, agriculture can receive the occupational upgrade and be repackaged as an urban profession. The final phase to halt the city is by reforesting the top of the hill. Instead of a solid wall, an arboreal wall will restore the top of the hill as a natural ecosystem and also keep the soil intact, preventing landslides. <img width="3456" height="5184" width_o="3456"

exteriorized domestic and non-domestic society models / stopping the city - greenhouse blockade and arboreal wall Semantic, systemic and civil evolution The history of third-world civil disobedience has manifested through active revolt, boycotts, and denial. Instead of encouraging public enemies to “fight the power”, this civil disobedience is organized as constant friction between capital and welfare. Through a movement of kitchen-sink realism which means that one will confront everyday life in all its political and economic implications.6 The vernacular is reread as the quotidian or every day, and informality is no longer endorsed as the unorderly, chaotic and unpolished. Instead of being pedantic architects and planners, one can work with the idiosyncrasies of barriadas, to foster their maintenance, development, and economic and real estate appreciation. The projection of open-work is constant reciprocity of the centralized and decentralized through political and economic agency, urban upscaling, open-ended platforms for development, and overruling any personal endgames. This way these barriadas can collectively improve as co-capitalists in the neoliberal world yet foster inter-social contracts and communal piquancy. × References 1 _ Dimitris Papaioannou et al., “On the Commons: A Public Interview with Massimo De Angelis and Stavros Stavrides,” An Architektur - On the Commons, no. 23 (July 2010), https://www.e-flux.com/journal/17/67351/on-the-commons-a-public-interview-with-massimo-de-angelis-and-stavros-stavrides/) 2 _ Marx, Karl.

Under prevailing sprawl trends of suburbia, the Cheyennese social contract is buried under disassociated and isolated stelae governed by capitalism, consumerism, standardization, mass production, urban geometries, order, and privacy. They neatly cut land and society into geometric packages, standardizing the appeal of a home, the spread of society, movement patterns, and thresholds. These thresholds under the desire for privacy, large automobiles, and capital greed have become obese, causing social and physical fragmentation and a divergent urban drift. Suburbia does not hold enough people to justify the land they occupy. It’s like a fancy luncheon in a massive hall, with massive tables and poor scope for conversation. There is a need for new social contracts. Or just a revival of fossilized values. Observed through a surrealist filter, the studio “Cheyenne Free State” is reviewed as a cry for help by a suburban American society. Trapped in a graveyard of equidistant domestic stelae, social potentials are separated by a palindrome of thresholds. Challenging suburban spatial redundancy and social absenteeism, the first half of the project is a critique, equating Cheyenne as an eerie ghost town or a museum of domestic fossils. Daily Soaps is a collection of fables and personas. Sixteen fables of domesticity cooked by collaging issues, conditions, heroes and delinquents, met and heard of in Cheyenne. Each fable represents a character and simultaneously a superset of characters. These domestic personas are masqueraded behind nomenclatures and asked to stand in their plots, like corpses in grave plots. There are rules, standards, curfews, and duplicity. A social, professional, and architectural hyper-link is drawn to establish new social contracts. Privacy is overrated and if “everyone knows everyone”, there will be nothing to hide. Sharing is efficient and instead of building replicas of domestic readymades, resources and artifacts can be collated to have lesser items and eventually threaten the capitalist systems. This hyperlink socialism establishes a 1/16th downsized open sandwich or smorgas. Everyone sits around the table, talks, laughs, eats. Everything is public and only self-hygiene, sleep, and sexual life are considered worthy of privacy. The focus remains center stage - the common space. It brings back, rather, follows the trending work-live spatial mutations, emancipating domestic spaces from isolation and degeneration. This fictional architectural production is a giant mirror excavating the eerie reality of Cheyenne, followed by a cathartic moment of sixteen domestics leaving their graves and enjoying an afterlife in a virgin landscape. Will human inevitability end this new milieu or does the happily ever after actually experience a new wave of domesticity, urbanity, and society? This is a piece of fiction. Or maybe a blueprint for a revolution. A critique, a proposal. Nostalgia and revival. <img width="4608" height="2208" width_o="4608" height_o="2208"

nest, arboreal stelae, ecological bandaging and time capsules for a plausible future People draw and consume resources from Earth throughout their lives. Mankind calls itself as a resource, the human resource, capable of mental/cerebral applications and the ability to endure labor to manipulate its surroundings. But under its arrogance and self-proclaimed superiority, humankind has let its weakness, its finiteness, plague its surroundings. The complex overlays of time are degrading under the finite rule of humankind. In its finite chronology, every unit of human being has consumed resources and space, laboring the ecology, locality, and even corrupting the healthy state of the world’s timeline. The fragments of the world are observed as systemic and temporal overlays - urbanity, locality, ecology, and memory. Observing the San Delano Roosevelt Park in lower East Manhattan as a test site, the seven-block site and its immediate, extended, and planetary context is simplified to the four fragments. Viewed as a temporal section, fragments of the past, present, and future are observed simultaneously as a palimpsest. Fragments of the past and present include the urban networks, nodes and systems, arboreal typologies, soundscapes, built morphologies, and human demographics. Fragments of the future entail a series of urban and ecological reparations to prolong short term and long term human existence. Memory, a subset of the world’s palimpsest has somehow become a physical expression of human archiving. Is memory a function of loss or can it be of life and progression? Can space for memory represent the chronology of the world and its complex overlays or does it still have to follow a framework of reminiscence? Do we reminisce about the past or can we contribute to the progression of time and add ourselves back into the system instead of corrupting its properties? Are humans only capable of conquering, extracting, capitalizing, or could they contribute, preserve, and prolong? Acknowledging the human corpse as biological material, the chosen field performs liminally - coalescing resources, spaces, and programs of life and death. Through the composting of the deceased, death contributes to the lives of future flora, and eventually future fauna. Fragments of the future define forms of urban revitalization through over-pedestrianization and maintenance of arenas of play established in the past. This new urban living room is populated by reprogrammable furniture and pavilions that adapt to seasons and weather conditions, and finally is a mass funerary system - burial silos and nursery tholoi. Expanding the urban living room, soil stelae and stalactites archive human matter and simultaneously grow new carbon organisms to feed an oxygenate future humankind. Challenging a vicious human Anthropocene, an ‘arbopocene’ is projected as a method of ecological reparation. Post the age of human Anthropocene, in a plausible era of the Arbopocene, humans could positively contribute to our shared ecology rather than being a geophysical assailant. Reminiscence, remembrance, preservation. <img width="4608" height="2208" width_o="4608" height_o="2208"

The cultivable countryside is a tessellation of recognizable plot shapes. Clusters of heterogeneous crops, following time, seasons, and food culture. The urban transposition is a collection of polarized fields made to fit within the fragments of locality, urbanity, ecology, and memory. And soon, these cultivable follies become locality, urbanity, ecology, and memory themselves of the urban ecosystem. From linear movements between crop aisles, the urban folk move with a little more personal discretion - walk, cycle, run, drive, ride, crossover layup, Cryuff turn, skateboard, slide, chase bubbles, swing, lie, sleep. Spaces become specialized for functional isolation and yet under the rule of diversity, remain democratic to incorporate the imagination of the public - play, dance, sleep, workout, work, gamble, narrate, mime, fight, wed, watch, eat, entertain, make a living. And finally, with time accruing over the lifespans, stories, and remains of people and place, what is left is the palimpsest of the world and the time capsules of human, ecological and spatial legacy. <img width="3300" height="4800" width_o="3300" height_o="4800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9bbe4a8436a9f4e3e3b766145bb8f9805716c549a17a168c9a65ff78052217cd/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_03_Farmland.jpg" data-mid="76990103" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9bbe4a8436a9f4e3e3b766145bb8f9805716c549a17a168c9a65ff78052217cd/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_03_Farmland.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="4800" width_o="3300" height_o="4800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ff9cd5cf798a3ed190a5057cadec3a255b802a321eb6c1235bd5f40ba33cd7cb/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_04_GeometricAbstraction.jpg" data-mid="76990104" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ff9cd5cf798a3ed190a5057cadec3a255b802a321eb6c1235bd5f40ba33cd7cb/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_04_GeometricAbstraction.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="4800" width_o="3300" height_o="4800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c85041e9ecb6f8e65adb18dc20c7d355d3c51f88f2de60d3f1466f5608459212/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_05_OpeningsforLivingRoom.jpg" data-mid="76990105" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c85041e9ecb6f8e65adb18dc20c7d355d3c51f88f2de60d3f1466f5608459212/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_05_OpeningsforLivingRoom.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="4800" width_o="3300" height_o="4800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a20046797bdf4c8375d7c4d32ee94b83a2b76d10eaf3af7d436649420c01fb53/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_06_TheUnderground.jpg" data-mid="76990106" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a20046797bdf4c8375d7c4d32ee94b83a2b76d10eaf3af7d436649420c01fb53/ARCH_Rothstein_SeidBurka_KabirSahni_SU19_06_TheUnderground.jpg" /> cultivable land urban polarization urban living room time capsules <img width="3337" height="1975" width_o="3337" height_o="1975" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/81fe2c74266bc4b6907be4973a4b413b7f259bea6f91d18e595c27808f088490/Liminal-Ecology_word-play.jpg" data-mid="76987601" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/81fe2c74266bc4b6907be4973a4b413b7f259bea6f91d18e595c27808f088490/Liminal-Ecology_word-play.jpg" /> soliloquy, diagram / liminal ecology, manifesto and spatial labyrinths I fed from this Earth Belly full of fruit and leaves Now you can have me Outside their stelae We orchestrate new stories Some rest, others play <img width="1368" height="2096" width_o="1368" height_o="2096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8022594f3001dfa279176be234bc9fe96cfc04f5257834a6fdb15bd68072612d/liminal-sketches.jpg" data-mid="76993781" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8022594f3001dfa279176be234bc9fe96cfc04f5257834a6fdb15bd68072612d/liminal-sketches.jpg" /> <img width="1688" height="1964" width_o="1688" height_o="1964" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/927dcec75559613d355b55ac31d30dd8ab90a1eb7dde56de995b08ad6655cbd6/liminal-sketches2.jpg" data-mid="76993782" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/927dcec75559613d355b55ac31d30dd8ab90a1eb7dde56de995b08ad6655cbd6/liminal-sketches2.jpg" /> axonometric / fragments of the world A human is a sum of its physical construction, actions, health, and cerebral activity. Similarly, the world is a collection of the same fragments - locality, urbanity, ecology, and memory. The locality is a fragment of everything physical and systemic - roads, builtscapes, monuments, walkways, waterways, sewers, subway tunnels, playgrounds, airspace, lamp poles, dustbins, materiality, tonality, textures, fragrances, odours, noise, rules, regulations, sensibilities, and laws. The urbanity is what we make of this locality together - play, sit, eat, fight, cycle, read, dance, listen, cook, vandalize, rest. The ecology is the life expectancy of the world. And finally, the memory is the collection of all palimpsests - stories, reminiscence, hindsight, remembrance, lessons learned, wisdom transposed, and legacies. Together they make up the physical, intangible, intentional, systemic, and memorable. The structure of any palimpsest is the interaction of all subsets, singularly and in groups, that together mark a past, live a present, and move on to a future. The fragments are the world itself. Similarly, this palimpsest is a fragment of fragments. From here we begin to record, design, manipulate and portend and maybe even amend, by building a fragment desirable for the longevity of the world. plan / seven-block programming urban living room [loc] sports playgrounds, basketball court [x6], soccer pitch [x2], handball wall [x2], running track [200m] [urb] public nodes, room for stories, play room I, kitchen, fountain, library, theater, play room II, agora, classroom [eco]nurseries / nurseries, grains, medicinal, fruits + vegetables, other edibles, fungi, house plants forests [x8] gardens / songbird garden, hummingbird garden, pollinator garden, butterfly garden [mem] silo.01_12 bays, silo.02_6 bays, silo.03_12 bays, silo.04_6 bays, silo.05_12 bays <img width="1382" height="2001" width_o="1382" height_o="2001" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/902601e84a1248c15b89932afb7f964337a5fa188c3c63b6c49df5ed2af77aa9/liminal-sketches5.jpg" data-mid="76993783" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/902601e84a1248c15b89932afb7f964337a5fa188c3c63b6c49df5ed2af77aa9/liminal-sketches5.jpg" /> <img width="1289" height="1838" width_o="1289" height_o="1838" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0ab9876f90f35d8b14122f74fc0d08fcde0497d51c7938fbcd9a1d0514af9f1e/liminal-sketches6.jpg" data-mid="76993784" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0ab9876f90f35d8b14122f74fc0d08fcde0497d51c7938fbcd9a1d0514af9f1e/liminal-sketches6.jpg" /> plan / past and future (accrued and introduced, respectively) fragments of the world plan / living room labyrinths - intersection of all users archetypes and programmes [fragments] [loc] [urb] [eco] [mem] [past] morphological spacing collection of playgrounds flora and fauna species people [reminiscence] [future] anthropocentric to arboreal grid new living room of urban utility urban cultivation and nurseries soil [remembrance] The established programme of the urban living room is sequenced to acknowledge the diverse labyrinths of its users - human species of all ages and intents, soil, ecology, memories, and other species of the fauna.

From tight pigeon hole and expensive rentals to gracious but criminally expensive condos, the options are fixed and dull. Embracing the availability of rectilinear plots, can residential rigidity be challenged by reverse-engineering the domestic? Architectural theory on the concept of the island and the archipelago displays the duality of space - a solo entity bounded by certain thresholds and the simultaneous connectivity to similar islands. Challenging the binary of residential architecture where units always exist alone and only as a collective building, this project introduces notions of plurality in order to reconfigure domestic space and foster solitude in tandem with social interactions. By introducing play as a program and an act, the project tackles reconfiguration at an interior level and social interaction at an inter-unit scale. Part one establishes a mutating interior through move-able interfaces that work as modules. Instead of rendering a unit as a fixed island, it transforms it into a dynamic archipelago of functions and utilities. Part two is a play of units, interstitial spaces, and spaces for play that singularly and collectively reverse engineer a residential building to a vertical micro-neighborhood. <img width="3300" height="3300" width_o="3300" height_o="3300" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2059a5e1242713a4c8c1b6227b3e8305aec10a43cd8ccd708c4e56a2d7c3e46f/skyline-2.jpg" data-mid="76983697" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2059a5e1242713a4c8c1b6227b3e8305aec10a43cd8ccd708c4e56a2d7c3e46f/skyline-2.jpg" /> perspective / changing the logic of the sea&nbsp;

Battleship is played with a partner. With two interiorized interfaces, both players interact to guess the other’s sequence. The physical manifestation are two interfaces butted against each other with the same army of deployable ships. Information is of one’s navy is placed in plan and the one of the other recorded in elevation. interface / volumetric grid The first extraction lies in the spatial logic and it visual representation. The board works with a simple square grid with all ships deployed in either north-south or east-west orientation. The planar and vertical interfaces hold identical grids. Projecting both vertically and horizontally respectively, one arrives at a volumetric representation of the grid. This is the building’s primary logic and structural system. A 10’x10’x10’ volumetric grid in timber with steel joints is manifested as the building, the billboard, the framework and the modular interface. And now we will inhabit the billboard. game play / social semantics The unique feature of the game is the dual relationship with the partner/competitor - you cannot see his/her navy, yet you begin gathering information about it till you know everything about the person. This duality is abstracted and applied as a social housing scheme. Aimed to introduce hierarchies of neighborly interaction and establish as a mid-rise micro-neighborhood, different social spaces and interfaces are established through the building. The range from common windows to corridors to rooms, to different categories of play spaces and play floors. components / elementarism The final reading of battleship gives us a navy of ships. Standardized to fit in a standard grid, these embody a modular behavior. This is applied to the placement of residential and play units. These units are modular and simultaneously syncretion of modules. The play, services and circulation modules are deployed as a fixed logic whereas residential modules have the freedom to combine, detach and play withing the rest of the space and levels. <img width="2700" height="4173" width_o="2700" height_o="4173" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/aa1ed01246737722b16924c92ad86ecebdc61f0d23337c6cf0435bdca8aca6a0/Assignment_4.2.jpg" data-mid="76985578" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/aa1ed01246737722b16924c92ad86ecebdc61f0d23337c6cf0435bdca8aca6a0/Assignment_4.2.jpg" /> isometric / billboard, circulation, play zone and follies <img width="2700" height="4173" width_o="2700" height_o="4173" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f00446568e15df12ccfa452b9e85319d101818fbfd9e28f3272ffdfc741b6187/Assignment_4.1.jpg" data-mid="76985577" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f00446568e15df12ccfa452b9e85319d101818fbfd9e28f3272ffdfc741b6187/Assignment_4.1.jpg" /> isometric /&nbsp;living inside a billboard Occam’s Razor is deployed as the problem-solving principle that states that “Entities should not be multiplied without necessity.” Basically, going for the simplest explanation. Instead of applying play to arrive at a dramatic concoction in the city’s skyline, this project uses the act of play to arrive at a lucid compromise between sedentism and nomadism. Sedentary behavior is maintained by fixed apartment spaces and the nomadic behavior is experienced through the flexibility of constant redecoration to satiate resident needs. Play simultaneously manifests through a series of spaces meant for programmatic play - sports, courtyards, and greens, for congregational behavior, elevating housing to a social housing typology. This act of play is an abstraction of the battleship gameplay, interface, and physical components. The social gameplay drives the social spine and play spaces, the geometric simplicity transforms the building into a three-dimensional billboard, and the components inspire simplicity and reconfigurability. The final phase of modularity is defined through a Russian doll system. Applying modularity at a trans-scalar level, domestic units are inhabited by modular frames that arrow shelving, seating, plugging in appliances and fixtures, and leaving empty. These are deployed for various domestic functions. The largest scale is the building itself that acts as a modular unit to be plugged or detached with other such billboards and scale up from a residential building to a large-scale housing project. P.S. “Sinking a battleship” is when the units align perfectly like any other residential building, which defeats the purpose. <img width="2700" height="4173" width_o="2700" height_o="4173" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3040aced354a50be0f98a09ad34d9d553da40b11c7c24e3f020b48b1fdf2481f/Assignment_4.3.jpg" data-mid="76985619" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3040aced354a50be0f98a09ad34d9d553da40b11c7c24e3f020b48b1fdf2481f/Assignment_4.3.jpg" />isometric / nine steps to domesticate a billboard <img width="3000" height="3000" width_o="3000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4d185ab22d4fcdce6da392792a3738558d32beec12d43d84d2682b711ecf50ba/Assignment_4_gif-6.gif" data-mid="76983745" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4d185ab22d4fcdce6da392792a3738558d32beec12d43d84d2682b711ecf50ba/Assignment_4_gif-6.gif" /> <img width="3000" height="3000" width_o="3000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/96f69ae623494b32ec0c4fc9c3960039eb01ea2e35b5270348de5c313f0a7b6d/Assignment_4_gif-3.gif" data-mid="76983742" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/96f69ae623494b32ec0c4fc9c3960039eb01ea2e35b5270348de5c313f0a7b6d/Assignment_4_gif-3.gif" /> isometric / nine steps to domesticate a billboard, contd. floor plans / combinations and permutations of residential and play spaces <img width="3000" height="3000" width_o="3000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d7a50829085f89b7b75bcbc2af4d86023b252a5a7934415f38c7242965ba2f02/Assignment_4_gif-1.gif" data-mid="76983740" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d7a50829085f89b7b75bcbc2af4d86023b252a5a7934415f38c7242965ba2f02/Assignment_4_gif-1.gif" /> <img width="3000" height="3000" width_o="3000" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d7b3252a601428213c175f7b874ba0ed23b49d01762ce77dbb280fedd0c62269/Assignment_4_gif-2.gif" data-mid="76983741" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d7b3252a601428213c175f7b874ba0ed23b49d01762ce77dbb280fedd0c62269/Assignment_4_gif-2.gif" /> section / wall modules, combinations isometric / wall modules, assembly <img width="3300" height="5100" width_o="3300" height_o="5100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fe7576b7725efff5ace7c6ba5b903ad3e1de951b0a70c87210f2d55b7d62ae4f/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior4.jpg" data-mid="76986318" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fe7576b7725efff5ace7c6ba5b903ad3e1de951b0a70c87210f2d55b7d62ae4f/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior4.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="5100" width_o="3300" height_o="5100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/093521e340396e993c4689200bfabde0203f0a29ce08f2c2920411f7a51fe307/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior2.jpg" data-mid="76986320" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/093521e340396e993c4689200bfabde0203f0a29ce08f2c2920411f7a51fe307/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior2.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="5100" width_o="3300" height_o="5100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/364cd82655cc4e461b0656c1f3697b4a4f8cd37f51f4658fde81b49214d6b57c/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior3.jpg" data-mid="76986321" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/364cd82655cc4e461b0656c1f3697b4a4f8cd37f51f4658fde81b49214d6b57c/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior3.jpg" /> <img width="3300" height="5100" width_o="3300" height_o="5100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/671d395edf7c58c82113e4e2df974ff098e5b50f92305f83143b35869c837297/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior.jpg" data-mid="76986319" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/671d395edf7c58c82113e4e2df974ff098e5b50f92305f83143b35869c837297/200507_Manhattan-Billboard_Final-interior.jpg" /> isometric /&nbsp;interior modules (work space, kitchen, bathrooms, combinations) ︎ https://kabir-sahni.com/Exit-Music Sat, 11 Jul 2020 06:35:13 +0000 Kabir Sahni https://kabir-sahni.com/Exit-Music Exit Music Spring 2017 School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi Critic / Dr. Amit Hajela (Neev Architects Urban Designers), Rahoul Singh (RLDA) I.T.O., New Delhi, IndiaArchitectural Thesis︎ <img width="3307" height="2339" width_o="3307" height_o="2339" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/767c729b636fb8370b41cf0df50463e47200cf50d7598e051cddbcd43c09d117/10_Exit_22.jpg" data-mid="77084843" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/767c729b636fb8370b41cf0df50463e47200cf50d7598e051cddbcd43c09d117/10_Exit_22.jpg" /> model / bird’s eye view of the entire site from the south-west&nbsp; This study cites the obsolescence of funerary spaces and practices in contemporary India. Sure, we can either bury or cremate but are we doing it the right way? The world is facing an alarming level of environmental degradation and so can human decomposition be harnessed to bandage the damage caused by its life? Why are martyrs the only ones to receive their monuments? Can public architecture commemorate the ordinary deceased? Exit music formulates a mission statement. It calls upon people to come together and establish a system of turning the inevitability of human death as a means to restore personal memories, bandage urban disconnects and maybe even save the environment from its current inevitable degradation. The manifestation of this thesis begins with a demographic analysis of religious practices in the city of New Delhi, followed by the simplification and redevelopment of obsolete practices to form a new funerary structure – electric cremation, resomation, and recomposition. The physical plotting of spaces on site begins with four sacred geometries that place three cubes (cremation, recomposition, and internalization) around the triangular central pyre, forming an octahedron. The project expands its scope by using this intervention as a solution for urban restoration. New pedestrian routes are created through this fortified and abandoned site. Site area is sacrificed to widen roads, allocate space for parking on the periphery and all hearses drop off the deceased right under the building, keeping matters private. <img width="2339" height="2721" width_o="2339" height_o="2721" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4f43c3e07e320ab94dcca291af5b17c3f7c5509b87e47caddb06d3dde4eb7b46/10_Exit_01.jpg" data-mid="77085287" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4f43c3e07e320ab94dcca291af5b17c3f7c5509b87e47caddb06d3dde4eb7b46/10_Exit_01.jpg" /> isometric / urban and architectural model viewed from the south-east <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/41329d6f7c9e0ac0a356bdadc004ca44267a06da2c8d1be3e213095e4a50bfde/exit-plan.jpg" data-mid="77085279" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/41329d6f7c9e0ac0a356bdadc004ca44267a06da2c8d1be3e213095e4a50bfde/exit-plan.jpg" /> plan / site plan and model of urban revitalization&nbsp; The Light Well is the centerpiece of the site. It is the primary ‘manifestation’ of Exit Music and the confluence of the primary axes. Designed as a large pyre with intersecting slabs of highly polished stainless-steel surfaces, the pyre embodies all elements - water (through water bodies), air (with the air it encapsulates), earth (where it rests), metal (through materiality), aether (through people) and fire (six beams of light that flash in the night landscape). Water proves as the transition from land to blocks. Each block is accessible from any of the four cardinal directions through pathways chiseling across the water bodies. Water spiritually plays the cleansing agent, and architecturally as a heat trap that helps in passive cooling of the building from all directions. The outermost outline of all water bodies put together forms a distorted outline of an icosahedron. The outdoor elements on site are the gardens of past, present, or future tense. The garden of past tense is a collection of pavilions with names of deceased chiseled into the ceiling. As light falls through, the names fall on the ground, creating a mosaic of memories. The garden of present tense in a link between the site and the rose garden that exists in the north. And finally, the garden of future tense, a negative of the garden of past tense, is a collection of courtyards with flora grown from earth generated through recomposition, completing the cycle of life. <img width="1654" height="1012" width_o="1654" height_o="1012" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/89e290d804945f8121b65e41c8369785469deac36adcabe0b661436944ff5948/10_Exit_05-.jpg" data-mid="77085275" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/89e290d804945f8121b65e41c8369785469deac36adcabe0b661436944ff5948/10_Exit_05-.jpg" /> isometric, section / cremation block - courtyard cut and deep cut <img width="1812" height="1404" width_o="1812" height_o="1404" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/94f6bce488c6c6a9861442dc4b70eda18b235089c1e34c26f96f560732d2ede7/exit-pieces-2.jpg" data-mid="77085278" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/94f6bce488c6c6a9861442dc4b70eda18b235089c1e34c26f96f560732d2ede7/exit-pieces-2.jpg" /> <img width="1820" height="796" width_o="1820" height_o="796" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b7f414a286d5a48348f0d67504dc484d1d42569c544aba2094fa2e72b345a5aa/exit-pieces.jpg" data-mid="77085277" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b7f414a286d5a48348f0d67504dc484d1d42569c544aba2094fa2e72b345a5aa/exit-pieces.jpg" /> plan /&nbsp;building layout and circulation strategy elevation, detail / material hierarchy and strategy <img width="1408" height="925" width_o="1408" height_o="925" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b07975076c8131342527247b474ee507c70c8b9d995758af1809ccf33f7540a/7.9.jpg" data-mid="77085962" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0b07975076c8131342527247b474ee507c70c8b9d995758af1809ccf33f7540a/7.9.jpg" /> <img width="1408" height="925" width_o="1408" height_o="925" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/61f6480b3310e23de79e71ba1728dd549b05d6d0191a246a05117a4b7e86221c/7.9-2.jpg" data-mid="77085963" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/61f6480b3310e23de79e71ba1728dd549b05d6d0191a246a05117a4b7e86221c/7.9-2.jpg" /> axonometric, elevation, sketches / study of elevation options <img width="5184" height="2820" width_o="5184" height_o="2820" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/09ce3def60bba5419c523ea09c47b1fc00bb4dfdc9de810be4851b34466a8f49/10_Exit_19.jpg" data-mid="77085651" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/09ce3def60bba5419c523ea09c47b1fc00bb4dfdc9de810be4851b34466a8f49/10_Exit_19.jpg" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6999bd07d2ef67f1e91947e8c696ff1c1595b9e912af9d73e7f4057cb0d84193/10_Exit_17.jpg" data-mid="77084840" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6999bd07d2ef67f1e91947e8c696ff1c1595b9e912af9d73e7f4057cb0d84193/10_Exit_17.jpg" /> <img width="5184" height="3456" width_o="5184" height_o="3456" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/40dd5868571227fff411bc533f4fd9ce8fb6b3892e5217cc8de8df646935483b/10_Exit_20.jpg" data-mid="77084842" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/40dd5868571227fff411bc533f4fd9ce8fb6b3892e5217cc8de8df646935483b/10_Exit_20.jpg" /> model /&nbsp;(top)&nbsp;south elevation of the internalisation block and the garden of past tense;

They enjoy speed and high performance. Static is stale, and more is, in fact, more. To serve to a multi-tasking population a multi-use program is developed by tossing all functions in a salad bowl and crafting combinations. The city of Delhi navigates through a complex transit system including bus and metro network, along with roads flooded with private vehicles, auto-rickshaws, cycle rickshaws, and now cabs in the new Uber-Ola era. Intra-city transit mustn’t function independently of the city’s activities and so this multi-use program finds itself plugged to a multi-modal transit point at Sector 10 Dwarka metro station and the national highway. The site is split into quadrants by three pedestrian axes all of which link critical public nodes inside and outside the site (namely, the Blue Line of the Delhi Metro at the Sector 10 station, two bus stops in the North and the Highway on the South, a low-traffic bus depot, rickshaws, and e-rickshaws and all other private and commercial vehicular networks). The program development is not as capricious or arbitrary as it sounds. Each built volume is a combination of workable ingredients. The western flank which is linked with tertiary roads is occupied by residences and supported by f&amp;b, quotidian retail, and recreational assets. The southern flank is a triangular courtyard spooled with retail, offices, entertainment, and f&amp;b, becoming the center around the park and existing commercial buildings. The east block is a podium with individual blocks of corporate offices, workshops, serviced apartments, and a hotel and also supported by retail and f&amp;b assets. The north quadrant is seen as the center for all neighboring residential communities, including the one proposed on-site, and has everyday retail, a sports complex, and a primary school. The Urban Treble’s focuses on maximizing greens and pedestrianization. Sunken courtyards, green balconies, green roofs, and green knolls are proliferated all over the site and weaved with the built. Cars are restricted to the periphery and functions are aligned to the metro, bus stop, existing informal feeder systems, and urban fabric. A bridge linking public floors on of all buildings to the south of the metro line provides an alternate pedestrian and cycle access from the metro station, and may be accessed by users from outside of the site to walk up and access the metro station, public floors or just enjoy the view. Finally, the underneath of the metro line, a commonly abandoned and often unsafe zone in the city is reactivated as a long strip that flows eastwards. Consisting of well-lit pedestrian routes, water bodies, sandpits, and playfields, it makes the area safe and potential grounds for commercial and non-commercial temporal activities, another idiosyncrasy of the city. <img width="3960" height="1100" width_o="3960" height_o="1100" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0e1ac06c311aee31f06ea86874e2299cb072d4156e0a9395c9c00103162e39fe/09_Treble_2.jpg" data-mid="77137581" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0e1ac06c311aee31f06ea86874e2299cb072d4156e0a9395c9c00103162e39fe/09_Treble_2.jpg" /> diagram / development of a mixed land-use salad <img width="2125" height="528" width_o="2125" height_o="528" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/42bf7e0704038aedb5910b20adf1e67609e9cc03c7aaf33f4383f1f2a1baee41/09_Treble_4.jpg" data-mid="77137688" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/42bf7e0704038aedb5910b20adf1e67609e9cc03c7aaf33f4383f1f2a1baee41/09_Treble_4.jpg" /> urban axes and nodes built and nodes multi-modal intersection diagram / site planning <img width="2339" height="3307" width_o="2339" height_o="3307" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1843e6ae0811bf95eb6d182658d36b099b31a02177bca55dcdf7ffd386bfce0e/09_Treble_3.jpg" data-mid="77136735" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1843e6ae0811bf95eb6d182658d36b099b31a02177bca55dcdf7ffd386bfce0e/09_Treble_3.jpg" /> plan /&nbsp;urban layout and mixed use composition <img width="1872" height="2566" width_o="1872" height_o="2566" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/73f22b20042b3b4b240672e4330c1f272b7659ba6d834a6d560c69edf19f9064/treble.jpg" data-mid="77136730" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/73f22b20042b3b4b240672e4330c1f272b7659ba6d834a6d560c69edf19f9064/treble.jpg" /> plan, section / east wing, residential + hospital <img width="1872" height="2566" width_o="1872" height_o="2566" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d7f58c42c548aed22a64f376af34db24781bfc72073698f4a4d2e45012664368/treble3.jpg" data-mid="77136732" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d7f58c42c548aed22a64f376af34db24781bfc72073698f4a4d2e45012664368/treble3.jpg" /> plan, section / west wing, offices + hotel + convention <img width="1872" height="2566" width_o="1872" height_o="2566" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5b2763abc231e3cd1e016acf16a8678c3e8446e6fa752223cf5cf48431b922d9/treble2.jpg" data-mid="77136731" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5b2763abc231e3cd1e016acf16a8678c3e8446e6fa752223cf5cf48431b922d9/treble2.jpg" /> plan, section / south wing, retail + recreation + offices ︎ https://kabir-sahni.com/Riptide Mon, 13 Jul 2020 04:29:11 +0000 Kabir Sahni https://kabir-sahni.com/Riptide Riptide Fall 2015 School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi Critic / Manish Gulati (M:OFA), Dr. Prof. Ranjana Mital, Sudipto Ghosh (S.

They are a harvest of a city’s pride, glory, and aspirations, designed to house the blood, sweat, and tears of those who battle and those who watch their idols battle. Amongst all its exuberating glory, stadiums become rather massive and redundant structures in the city. For a city like New Delhi with complex demographics and a large and dense population, utility and economy are always finds preference over extravagance. Optimum space utilization, multi-use, cost efficiency, material durability, and public use efficacy are given more weightage especially when it comes to public infrastructure. Here the ethos of stadiums injects a sense of pathos among public architecture due to its aspirational shenanigans. In addition, water sports or even just swimming has a popularity below 1% even as a leisure sport in Delhi (Global HABIT, Hakuhodo Inc., 2012). So the prime focus was to develop a manifesto that harped on the merger of public utility and sports popularisation: a democratic arena of sport and expression instead of architecture pronouncing grandeur. The latter was expressed in the form of Olympic level facilities - diving pool, racing pool, practice pool and even play pools, to introduce the sport at all ages and comfort levels. The arena and its glory remained the heart of the complex but to manifest optimum public utility, it was circumscribed and adorned with a spool of cultural, commercial, and recreational spaces - a turban of public utility and festivity. Stadia are a force to be reckoned with, but this arena was an opposing wave of grass-root humbleness and hence the title, Riptide. A union of sport and public life becomes the driving manifesto of spatial and functional organization. To tap this adrenaline, ‘Lateralus’ (by prog-metal band, Tool), became the defining muse for structural and visual expression. The line “spiral out, keep going” devised the spool of cultural, commercial, and recreational spaces around the arena and finally faded into the existing Thyagaraj Park, an expression of free-thinking public utility. The Fibonacci roots of the track formed the structural symbols and the radial trusses, and the psychedelic instrumentation formed the inlay work of primary colors like a gigantic stained-glass mural, reverberating the cosmopolitan and picturesque persona. The entire volume emulated the physical manifestation of a radial spectrograph of the city’s adrenaline. <img width="2516" height="348" width_o="2516" height_o="348" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bb9662b1514f12430e9a711f3bccd49e4cd6a4c85247f8d1e29f3c71ee5f36e6/riptide-diagram.jpg" data-mid="77212896" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bb9662b1514f12430e9a711f3bccd49e4cd6a4c85247f8d1e29f3c71ee5f36e6/riptide-diagram.jpg" /> diagram /&nbsp;Lateralus (Tool 2002) spectrograph (red - treble, blue - bass line, black - riptide spectrograph) <img width="3020" height="2733" width_o="3020" height_o="2733" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fd51cdbf504c7c09506b9678ae289d935c5e0d844fb0f9834c64e7f8b53b4f71/riptide-section.jpg" data-mid="77212865" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fd51cdbf504c7c09506b9678ae289d935c5e0d844fb0f9834c64e7f8b53b4f71/riptide-section.jpg" /> section / cut through racing pool and west wing <img width="3220" height="4281" width_o="3220" height_o="4281" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/507b97cbfd9b39ea50f60fb7c2cac28955dfdf06568a8c5895c3df22fac25edc/07_Riptide_4.jpg" data-mid="77212868" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/507b97cbfd9b39ea50f60fb7c2cac28955dfdf06568a8c5895c3df22fac25edc/07_Riptide_4.jpg" /> 01. position of olympic arena 03.&nbsp;introducing public spool 05.&nbsp;Lateralus spectrogram as radial grid 07. structural radial trusses 02.&nbsp;Olympic arena and play pool blocks 04.&nbsp;levels of the public spool 06.&nbsp;interpolation of spool to radial grid 08.&nbsp;covered with a turban isometric / structural and architectural components and assemblage <img width="3508" height="4961" width_o="3508" height_o="4961" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/03c61a65b2448c9f2b77f39bee4af871f7a02c699cce81d8537453d48515c31b/07_Riptide_1.jpg" data-mid="77212866" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/03c61a65b2448c9f2b77f39bee4af871f7a02c699cce81d8537453d48515c31b/07_Riptide_1.jpg" /> <img width="3508" height="4961" width_o="3508" height_o="4961" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/acc224bb99f5cc92a0c512a149d1c1f734d69a64f8c111e2f98075e0fb442748/07_Riptide_3.jpg" data-mid="77212867" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/acc224bb99f5cc92a0c512a149d1c1f734d69a64f8c111e2f98075e0fb442748/07_Riptide_3.jpg" /> plan / rooftop level layout plan / ground and arena level layout ︎ https://kabir-sahni.com/Atmosphere Mon, 13 Jul 2020 04:10:48 +0000 Kabir Sahni https://kabir-sahni.com/Atmosphere Atmosphere Spring 2015 School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi Critic / Dr. Amit Hajela (Neev Architects Urban Designers), Rahoul Singh (RLDA), Dr. Prof. Jaya Kumar Vasant Kunj, New Delhi, India︎ <img width="4200" height="3000" width_o="4200" height_o="3000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/de810e1ab14c872843fe09c0f548ca19d071aa7a4396842b54b1560e15388822/atmos-render.jpg" data-mid="77211540" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/de810e1ab14c872843fe09c0f548ca19d071aa7a4396842b54b1560e15388822/atmos-render.jpg" /> perspective, diagram / view from the southern corner, geometric play across levels The design begins at the redevelopment of architectural pedagogy and is translated as a ‘colloidal program’. The undergraduate wing is a rendition of the layers of the atmosphere - individual strata, forming a homogeneous cloud. Starting from within the crust, the volume rises as a square doughnut; inspired by the traditional Indian courtyard morphology to maximize light, views, and ventilation. The levels are alternating layers of essential (studios and lecture rooms) and resource spaces (libraries, labs, workshops, research rooms, and public studios). Their vertical alternation weaves the ‘colloidal program’ that makes the entire volume unite as one homogeneous unit of heterogeneous minds. The studio is redefined as a workroom for group and solo work with lecture niches for theoretic learning and group discussion. The open plan enables cross-pollination across all sections, years, and departments. The ‘colloidal programming’ creates equitable access to workspaces, thinking spaces, resources, faculty, exhibition, and recreation, emulating a scintillating Tyndall effect. The courtyard further activates as a locus for college festivals, recreation, exhibition, or just ephemeral procrastination. The geographic highlight of the site is the gorge. Sheltered by one-fourth of the doughnut, the courtyard, and peripheral yards fade into this gorge, making it active for work and play. Collectively, the building imitates the minds of the aspiring designer – a complete mash-up of learning, resources, recreation, application, and cognition. The colloid elevates the pedagogy from a studio to a think tank for students and faculty alike. <img width="1842" height="581" width_o="1842" height_o="581" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/24c3c205a3b9cbfa4ad1412378abeb6d989ee0b8769e34723752846fd2cf1f58/atmos-layers.jpg" data-mid="77211615" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/24c3c205a3b9cbfa4ad1412378abeb6d989ee0b8769e34723752846fd2cf1f58/atmos-layers.jpg" /> diagram / colloidal programming <img width="3108" height="2916" width_o="3108" height_o="2916" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b42229386f33e3a16256c735934cb643bf2f2dade09cfa9eb3d467dc12d884b2/atmos-plan-g.jpg" data-mid="77211537" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b42229386f33e3a16256c735934cb643bf2f2dade09cfa9eb3d467dc12d884b2/atmos-plan-g.jpg" /> floor plan / level one <img width="3008" height="4451" width_o="3008" height_o="4451" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d5ba75519531c559e84004c94b4e755d9ff9487a9bd8b6057b291fdca51116ce/atmos-sections.jpg" data-mid="77211541" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d5ba75519531c559e84004c94b4e755d9ff9487a9bd8b6057b291fdca51116ce/atmos-sections.jpg" /> sections / (top to bottom) E-W courtyard cut, N-S studio cut, N-S courtyard cut <img width="3508" height="2756" width_o="3508" height_o="2756" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4b64b7c50d8e4d0b725891618b22d38e4c9376505825ef67a1544d676fc2d6ea/atmos.jpg" data-mid="77211616" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4b64b7c50d8e4d0b725891618b22d38e4c9376505825ef67a1544d676fc2d6ea/atmos.jpg" /> elevation / south western elevation <img width="3106" height="2115" width_o="3106" height_o="2115" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/39a2f896f9d970cca2f849311ad24d308abdc01f39acd50873a1b91490dbfa3f/studio-layout.jpg" data-mid="77211545" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/39a2f896f9d970cca2f849311ad24d308abdc01f39acd50873a1b91490dbfa3f/studio-layout.jpg" /> plan, diagram / spatial realisation of the studio pedagogy <img width="2520" height="4200" width_o="2520" height_o="4200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/46d3f3bd0fa019870f502be03fa5b891d151b2cc8ce8fe537092ecb3785523a5/atmos-plans.jpg" data-mid="77211747" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/46d3f3bd0fa019870f502be03fa5b891d151b2cc8ce8fe537092ecb3785523a5/atmos-plans.jpg" /> <img width="2520" height="4200" width_o="2520" height_o="4200" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8dc81090b0b0e22b08702004c80cc125a62f137f70f4e433bc3b41ea42390477/atmos-plans2.jpg" data-mid="77211748" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8dc81090b0b0e22b08702004c80cc125a62f137f70f4e433bc3b41ea42390477/atmos-plans2.jpg" /> plan / (above) level two, (below) level three plan / (above) level four, (level) five) ︎
