Riverside design:
Ahmedabad Arts and Culture Center alongside Sabarmati river, INDIA Master’s degree diploma projectAarhus School of Architecture, studio Contex, 2014 The main architectural idea was to create a “new terrain” with ramp and stair integration into the naturally sloping landscape. The architectural assignment involved the design of the riverside public space, arts education and culture center. As a result of the research and site visit, I made a proposal for a group of public buildings with shared spaces unifying the complex. Eventually this project became an investigation in finding the potential and problems laying in the establishment of the public space in Indian context. In parallel to the design proposal for educational facility accommodation, this academic project researched the possibility of re-designing pedestrian walkway laying along Sabarmati river and bordering the problematic site. The emphasis of primary design task was on the challenge to unite building volumes and creating a coherent sequence of urban public spaces in relation to water. Eventually, the open question is how to create a public building which would suites local community and wider city public needs. The project is designed at the Oslo school of Architecture where I study at the moment. However the pavilion is built in South America, Chile, near Valparaiso in the open city- experimental architecture park. A lucky coincidence was that we were asked to design a small housing unit for a single person to sleep in, however we ended up with a pavilion for bird watching. Coincidence or not, but that is what was needed for that particular spot. Since the site is in a close proximity to the river which attracts many different species of birds, the pavilion shelters you and becomes a nest for social gathering. Anyhow we paid tribute to public and hopefully the pavilion serves this great purpose and is enjoyable for many people who come to experience it.
