Centre for Environmental Planning & Technology (CEPT)To understand the curriculum, pedagogy of school and its physical environment.

Architecture is situated in physical contexts, both natural and manmade. It has to be responsive to cultural contexts of deep historical and ideological significance.It significantly affects the flows of resources and energy.Education based on premise thatArchitect is responsible agent of societal change.Cultural exposure that shapes a reflective and critical outlook based on social and environmental awareness and responsiveness.Rigorous learning of the skills and disciplines.

Objective of School :- Focus UnderstandingDesigningPlanningConstructingManaging Human Habitats Pedagogy of School :- Focus on building professional capacities and therefore they are center to Studios.To develop conceptual and analytical abilitiesCourseworkSeminars Research assignmentsSkill enhancing workshops support learning in studios.Study tours documentation programs Educating professionals requires practicing professionals and academics to work closely together.Therfore,CEPT works as collaborative of academics and practitioners. Practitioners adept at decision making bring their experience to classrooms and academics impart a more thoughtful and critical approach. Location : Ahmadabad .Architect : Ar.

Bricks School of Architecture,PuneTo understand the curriculum, pedagogy of school and its physical environment. Its expression of sustainability

To produce trained architects for developing nations to shoulder the responsibility of infrastructure. Particularly in providing low cost housing, well equipped hospitals addressing health issues, wide range of luxury and economy hotels to promote tourism in both urban and peri-urban areas amongst other infrastructure requirements.To make the students aware about the new challenges in the field of architecture with sustainability issues such as green construction, eco friendly architecture, rainwater harvesting, and the optimum use of solar energy.To inculcate the ethical, social and moral values in all our stakeholders; which is the basis of humane social order.

Objective of School :- ArchitectureEducation

Architecture till very recent times has always been an esteemed craft, and the architect as master builder held the skill of knowing the full layout of the creation, meeting its every need & aspiration, while balancing the aesthetic intent with the technological compulsions. In the last couple of centuries and particularly in the last few decades, architecture like any other field of human Endeavour has seen immense specialization and internal diversity.Architectural Education in India is a 5-year exercise involving nearly 20 mandatory subject streams (with subjects of various breadths) to be studied, exposure to nearly as many 'optional electives' some of whom enrich and some which serve as pre-specializations, and about a year of 'Practical Training', the compressed avatar of the apprenticeship. Typically the early years focus on skill building and knowledge sharing, while the later years focus on application of the knowledge with the skills, and thereon to further exposure & specialization.

prefer to club the subjects into three streams, that they call Laboratories or sudios: For each progressing year, there is a mix of subjects under each laboratory / studio. This is planned as per the stage the students have reached and knowledge acquired at each level. Content of every subject is designed so as to trigger thinking, develop technical rules & skills, and then urge students to explore the subject for their understanding throughpractical application, experimentation or creation.Curriculum

Located in the suburban region of Pune, this school of architecture is a model for the pupils to peek into the myriad world of architecture. For a student who spends nearly one-third of the day in the institution over a period of five years, the design of the institution itself is bound to make an impact on his/her mind Interaction is and has been the foremost concern of the design which is well reflected in the planning. In fact, the whole structure and layout has been used for this core purpose.The design also draws its concepts from the vernacular architecture of old Pune city, in making a contemporary interpretation of the courtyard Wada typology.The series of courtyards connecting the studios, the overlooking corridors, the play of linear and the dramatic angular, along with the honest use of materials of bricks, class and concrete, offer a visual imagery of the place which enhances the experience of the users.It draws inspiration from the South Indian temples where elements like layering of spaces, symmetry in planning and axial circulation form the essence of the of the campus plan.The college of architecture promotes modern ideas without losing faith in vernacular concepts of Indian place making. The library plays a pivotal role in the complex, as it is foreseen as hotbed of acquired knowledge and research. Physically the access here is flexible irrespective of whether or not the administration is open, while modern smart card technologies ensure their security.Megha PanchariyaM.Arch-1st semS.M.M.C.A,Nagpur


Built Environment

An informal discussion in the extended studio in courtyards, a jury panel exhibition put up in the court, bumping into a fresh piece of work displayed along the passage these are all proof that together with these elements, it merely doesnt become an exercise in nostalgia but it takes design interaction to the next level. It is like a walk through a live book where communication and chance encounters are not forced, but more casual and incidental. It is an effective way to share work and thoughts, to blur the boundaries between the juniors, seniors and the faculty.Megha PanchariyaM.Arch-1st semS.M.M.C.A,NagpurInferences

Thoughts should reflect from its built expression. we can promotes modern ideas without losing faith in vernacular concepts of Indian place making.Again we should starts to think about our traditional style with modern texture.
