convention centre

Idea projektu

Idea: A single continuous surface folds from the ground, up into a wall, and continues as the roof.
Inspiration: Origami or paper folding.
Symbolism: Unity, simplicity, and seamlessness.
Benefits: Minimizes material transitions; offers strong sculptural identity.
Structure: Steel or CLT panels could maintain continuity.

Popis projektu

To design a state-of-the-art convention center in Chennai using innovative steel construction
techniques that exemplify sustainability, functionality, and architectural excellence, while serving
as a dynamic space for diverse events.
To integrate steel into the project's design at multiple levels, from primary structure to building
envelope and tectonic details.

OBJECTIVE:
 To explore the design and form of building typologies that are the result of pressure on urban
lands with a thrust on issues like urban land economics, technology and ecology.
 To create an awareness with regard to the design of green buildings and sustainable
architecture.
 To inculcate the importance of services integration and construction in spatial planning in the
context of design of High-rise buildings and service intensive buildings.
 To highlight on the importance of High rise buildings as elements of identity in urban areas and
urban design principles that govern their design.
 To explore computer aided presentation techniques involving 2D and 3D drawings, walk
through and models as required
