I am a fourth-year undergraduate architecture student at School of Planning and Architecture Vijayawada.I find myself endlessly fascinated by both modern structures and historical landmarks, drawing inspiration from the diverse spaces that surround us. My extroverted nature thrives on collaboration, believing it enhances the creative process. I am always excited to learn new things and expand my skills, exploring the interplay between form and concept. Beyond the studio, I indulge my passion for architectural history through travel, gaining firsthand insight into design evolution. In essence, architecture has become not only my academic pursuit but also a lifelong lens through which I view and appreciate the world.

Contemparary |Urban Design

Nestled along the Krishna River, our architectural ensemble comprises four distinctive elements: the Memorial Complex and Andhra Pradesh Tourism Center grace the riverside, while the Commercial and Cultural Blocks stand proudly at the site’s entrance. Fluid forms seamlessly integrate with the natural landscape, while a diagonal path gracefully guides visitors to dynamic riverfront spaces, offering a harmonious fusion of serenity and vibrancy. Transition spaces serve as delightful surprises, guiding visitors along a journey of discovery, while a central dome crowns the ensemble, symbolizing collective interaction and community engagement.

CONCEPT

“Flowing Unity: A Symphony of River, Form, and Community” the dynamic fluidity of architectural form, and the creation of vibrant public interaction spaces. Inspired by the organic curves of the Krishna River, the design embraces a harmonious relationship between built environment and natural surroundings. Inspired by the river’s gentle curves, interlocking building blocks create voids and courtyards, fostering connectivity and openness. Balconies and jali facades provide shading and ventilation, while green spaces promote sustainability. Along
