16DES1.1: ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN - I
Contact periods: 8Hours (1Lecture + 7Studios) per week
VivaMarks: 50
Progressive Marks: 50
OBJECTIVE:
To introduce the idea of Design in general and ‘Architectural Design’ in particular so as to
initiate a thought process that is conducive for independent enquiry into a problem and
finding an appropriate solution for the same.
OUTLINE:
The course work is divided in three phases; Orientation phase, pre-design phase and Design
phase.
Module 1: Orientation Phase
This phase attempts to orient a novice to the field of architecture and design through stories,
discussions, presentations, and simple design exercises. It has following parts-
a) Basic Orientation: Lecture series on: Introduction to the field of Architecture, Course
structure, avenues and possibilities as an architect; Interesting stories and anecdotes
and conceptual thoughts behind some landmark buildings (3 to 4) of faculty’s choice.
Generation of group discussion and debate is recommended.
b) Introduction to lateral thinking: Encourages looking at day to day objects and
products with new meaning. Ask students to choose any object of their choice and
assign a totally different and unrelated function to it. Encourages observation and
analysis.
c) Understanding a ‘designed’ product: Encourages observing and analyzing what makes
a good design. Ask student to choose a product. Draw and analyze it for its function.
Redesign the product after understanding the problems and possible value additions.
For example a carry bag for architecture student. Sketching pads, sheet holder etc.
Module 2: Pre (Architectural) Design Phase
This phase generates a basic platform for architectural design to begin.
a) Anthropometry and Spatial Understanding: Makes student aware of basic sense of
scale of human body and its interrelationship with day to day objects as well as
spaces. Students to measure and draw plan, elevations and view of various furniture
units namely: sofa set, dinning set, Kitchen counter, Bed, Cupboard and puja space of
their own residence with reference to their own body.
b) Introduction to basic terminology: Introduction of basic terminology and their
location in an architectural space such as concept of plinth, sill level, lintel level, slab
level, etc. and their relevance in architectural space making. To be done by the faculty
and initiate discussions.
c) Introduction to the idea and importance of ‘BUILT’, ‘UNBUILT’ and ‘IN-
BETWEEN’ spaces (solid vs void): Introducing the students to the refined ideas and
interrelationships between solids, voids and in-between or semi open spaces with the
help of examples. Students to prepare poster showcasing their understanding of above
stated ideas.
Module 3: Design Phase
This phase explores the beginnings of architectural design through mono-functional spaces
and self-contained spaces using the terminologies and understandings of Pre design phase.
a) Exercise one (Mono-functional spaces): Design of a ‘living space’ and ‘Bedroom
spaces’ exploring the possibilities of built, unbuilt and in-between spaces and
appropriately locating and emphasizing and even celebrating elements such as plinth,
lintel, sill etc. The design to consciously integrate and explore the relationship
between built and unbuilt spaces. The design to should be preceded by appropriate
case studies and literature studies.
b) Exercise two (Self-contained spaces): This exercise encourages students to observe
activities as well as spatial and functional arrangements of self-contained spaces such
as pan shop, prayer pavilion, Tulsi-vrindavankatta etc. Student to observe and
examine an existing case study and interpret it through architectural design.
All exercises and observations are expected to be submitted by the students in the form of a
portfolio at the end of the semester.

16DES2.1: ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN - II
Contact periods: 8Hours (1Lecture + 7Studios) per week
Viva Marks: 50
Progressive Marks: 50
OBJECTIVE:
To introduce the idea of ‘abstraction’ in Architectural Design, enabling students to weave
stories, inspirations, and patterns in space making and design process.
OUTLINE:
The course work is divided in three parts. ‘Initiation into Abstract thought’, ‘Abstraction and
spaces’ and ‘Design’
Module 1: Initiation into Abstract Thinking
This phase attempts to initiate the process of abstraction and inspiration and weave it with
architectural spaces.
a) ‘Observation’ and ‘Appreciation’: Students to be acquainted with the joys of
observing details of phenomenon or objects in nature. Students to be initiated to
meditate upon the happening and observe it keenly. While they observe they have to
consciously record their feelings. Further the students to take photograph of the
phenomenon or object and title it by giving appropriate reasons. Example:
Phenomenon such as- release of multi colored inks in water; Mixing oil and water;
waving of fields in wind; waves in the sea; and object characteristics such as Textured
stones, Colourful flowers, Patterned leaves, etc.
b) Idea of ‘Inspiration’ and ‘Abstraction’: Students to choose an object in nature (such as
flower, leaf, stone, wood etc.) that inspires them. This exercise explores the
possibilities of how inspirations can be weaved into design. However the constraint
the students have to work upon is that they cannot take the form of the object directly.
They have to understand the ‘sensa’ (qualities of object or event that stimulate ones
senses) of the object and recreate it in the design. They are encouraged to design
anything like a lamp, installation, culinary articles, furniture, painting or sculpture.
This design should attempt to recreate the ‘sensa’ and not the form. The success of the
design would be in the fact that the design does not in any way looks like the ‘object’
from which it is inspired, however when the designer reveals the source of inspiration,
it should be clearly felt. The exercise starts with selecting object, studying about it in
detail, ponder over what makes it what it is (study of sensa) and finally how the
design is inspired by the object.
Module 2: Abstraction and Spaces
This phase explores the possibilities of integrating abstract thoughts and ideas with
architectural spaces
a) Stories and spaces: This exercise attempts to initiate the idea of weaving stories into
spaces. Students are given a certain number of design elements (examples- walls,
columns, planes, trees, etc.) and they are expected to create a space that explores the
theme chosen in that studio. Themes may be ‘Path and Destination’, ‘Creation of in-
between’, ‘Identity’, ‘Chaos to Serene’, ‘Transformation’, ‘Center and Edge’ etc.
While the students explore the theme, they have to weave a spatial narrative in space.
For example- In theme ‘Paths and Destinations’, while student has to work on the
notions that create movement and a sense of final destination, they have to narrate the
happenings in the journey through the spaces. Students have to explain their scheme
with model, and descriptive drawings.
b) Attributes and Spaces: This exercise explores the dramatic transformation in quality
of space by changing a single attribute such as light, scale, skin, datum etc. The
attempt here is to study with the help of models (e.g. 1:50 model of 4mx4mx4m), how
different space characters can be achieved by changing only one attribute while others
remain constant. Students showcase their findings with two models. Studio may
explore contrasts such as – ‘Chaos and Peace’, ‘ Intimate and Gigantic’, ‘Introvert and
Extrovert’, ‘ Static and Dynamic’, ‘Contemplative and Celebrative’ etc. Students
understand the change in the attribute in each model to reach the desired feeling in
space.
Module 3: Design
Students have to design a dwelling unit that has to take clues from design principles of
‘Master Architects’. The dwelling unit could be an extension to the house of a master
architect or could be an independent house based on the principles of a master architect. The
class is to be divided in groups, each studying the ideologies of an architect, and then
recreating them in design. The studio focuses on understanding the ‘Sensa’ of the ideologies
of master architect and interpretation of the same.
The explorations of the studio to be produced in portfolio along with models at the end of
semester.
