The proposed ITI (Industrial Training Institute) in Nashik aims to be a cutting-edge facility for vocational education and skill development. The design should incorporate modern educational standards, providing adaptable classrooms, labs, and workshops to support diverse training programs. Administrative areas, student facilities, and support services must be efficiently organized to create a functional and engaging environment. Sustainability is a key focus, with the design incorporating energy-efficient systems, sustainable materials, and eco-friendly practices. Accessibility and safety are paramount, ensuring the facility is inclusive and secure for all users. The architectural style should be contemporary, reflecting professionalism while integrating with the local context. The project must adhere to budgetary constraints and timelines while engaging with the local community to align with their needs. Overall, the ITI should foster a stimulating learning environment and contribute positively to both students and the surrounding area.

We lack any dedicated grounds or spaces for casual socializing and recreational activities with friends, apart from the classrooms.
Sometimes, during workshop lectures, we need to travel two floors to reach the classrooms.
We lack a dedicated space for engaging in and working on projects unrelated to our academics after lectures.
The workshop spaces we work in are very dull and lack natural light.

The south western facade of the academic block is protected with the help of fins which helps in cutting of the hash sun radiation into the space. The space below the extruded blocks acts as a space for the students to interact and relax during their breaks and after lectures. The platforms provided are to nourish and the artistic abilities within the students.
PLAN
Hostel is the place where few students might feel along living away from their families. The U shaped mass of the building creates a centrally situated communication area which can be visible through the passages. Sitting areas are designed along the passages where one can read a book or just sit and relax during quiet times of the day.

The corridors often act as a buzzing spot for the students in an hostel. A circular form placed along the corridors act as a space where they can just sit and rid a book or connect with their fellow peers.
To tackle the harsh sunlight from directly entering the rooms the mass of the building is extruded at every floor level by. by this every adjacent floor acts an overhanging which lets the indirect light to enter. to tackle the point load at the tip of the overhanging mass, inclined columns are introduced to provide structural stability.

In the corridors of the staff quarters, a fascinating interplay of shadows is crafted by letting light pass through slabs that are partially covered with transparent polycarbonate sheets. This approach creates a dynamic visual effect, as the shifting light patterns enliven the space. The use of these materials ensures that the corridors stay vibrant and engaging, adding a sense of movement and intrigue to the environment.

Dense informal settlements along the border with the sea have been formed resulting in generation of waste
Operating oil refineries around the site
Due to the neglection and formation of the informal settlements around, the boundaries have been filled up with garbage and a huge sludge has settled which stops the larger ships from coming inside the bunder
During high tides when the water is filled inside the bunder barges are parkes here
A huge corridor along the bouundary of the sea awaits a transformation
Site A- The Tata oil mill site consists of dense pockets of vegetation. this pockets have been marked and a ramp so that the existing ecology of the site doesn’t get disturbed. The is ramp designed such that it guides the user to cover and experience the entire site.

Repeating the process by considering the already existing pockets which are further divided into zones
Connecting the pockets with a connector gives a feel of an avenue to the users
The pockets serve as cozy resting spots for users, while the surrounding pathway is designed for jogging, cycling, or enjoying the natural surroundings. This setup balances relaxation with active engagement, catering to various preferences.

This project presents a unique opportunity to create an architectural masterpiece that not only reflects the institute’s commitment to environmental stewardship but also harmoniously integrates with the stunning natural surroundings of the Western Ghats.
Dandeli, a region celebrated for its lush landscapes, diverse wildlife, and vital river systems, is the chosen location for RIBEC. This area, part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Western Ghats, is one of the world’s most ecologically significant regions, known for its endemic species and rich biodiversity
The architectural challenge here is to create a space that embodies the principles of sustainability and ecological harmony while serving as a cutting-edge research facility. The design should seamlessly blend with the natural environment, utilizing local materials and sustainable practices to minimize environmental impact. It should also facilitate a range of functions, from advanced laboratories and research offices to educational spaces and community outreach areas.

COMPETITION
India’s landscape is adorned with a tapestry of architectural marvels that span centuries and civilizations. These monuments are not just physical structures; they are the living embodiments of India’s rich history, cultural diversity, and enduring legacy. As we contemplate the reimagining of these cherished treasures, we must tread carefully, for the delicate balance between preservation and innovation is our guiding principle.
This brief is a call to action, a summons to those who believe in the power of creativity to honor our past while shaping our future. In this formidable undertaking, participants are entrusted with a monumental challenge: to undertake India’s most cherished structures and monuments and reimagine/redesign them all while keeping their profound historical relevance intact within their existing locations. The selected Monument or structure could be a standalone entity or a part of any complex that has to have a positive social impact.
