NARI GANDHI TROPHY 2011 Inspired by Yesterday Aspired for tomorrow PREMISE India simultaneously lives in three time zones. Moorings from the otherwise(prenominal) and aspirations for tomorrow coexist today to create the present. In India therefore history is non a fossilised past but rather a continuum of the tradition. muniment lives on as tradition. A land of long history and hidden traditions, its architectural landscape has innumerable edifices that live with transcended time to remain unaltered level off after centuries and millennia.They guard sustained the rigour of place and volume oer time. This has been so repayable to consistent process of adaptation over changed time and circumstance. Continuum of core traditional ethos along with adaptation of the new dimensions of the changed times. Their natural selection over time is in itself the proof of its acceptance and detachness over changed time and circumstance. These examples atomic number 18 the worthy resour ces to learn from them about their Spatiality (quality of timelessness), Sustainability (resource management) as well as gang (Sociocultural appropriateness).Why is it that architecture of yester year continues to inspire awe, even at times after functional obsolescence (i. e. step wells)? What are the spatial qualities that render them awe inspiring and experientially engaging across time? What makes them environmentally sustainable to remain energy efficient for climate comforts? What have been their constructional strategies to optimise on strong resources? What are the founding attributes that render them socio-culturally appropriate?Can we non learn from such time tested architecture and apply their principles of timeless aesthetics, environmental sustainability, constructional efficiency or functional plurality to the contemporary architecture. To interpret and apply the essence of traditional wisdom with their due adaptations for times to come. TASK ? Select a contempora ry architectural normal project from past three decades (after 1980A. D. which adequately demonstrates that it is inspired from the architecture of the past and aspires for the needs of the future. The design moldiness aptly demonstrate what aspects of architectural design from traditional/ ancient/ classical Indian architecture are identified, understood, interpret and how have they been applied/translated in the contemporary architecture with necessary transdata formattingions. home(a) Association of Students of computer architecture 54th Annual NASA Convention Nari Gandhi booty 2011 NARI GANDHI TROPHY 2011 ?The analysis must identify and highlight at least two of the 4 dimensions (Spatiality, Sustainability, Socio-cultural appropriability and Structural efficiency) that have inspired from architecture of the past and have been re interpreted in the present design. Architecture is a sum broad(a) of design decisions about Sitting and location form and massing, scale and lik eness space organisation and movement Choice of space making elements material and construction techniques as well as surface finishes and embellishments.Please analyse the chosen architectural project in sufficient depth to include references to approximately of above mentioned design decisions. The selected architectural project must be a campus (at least two or more buildings on a plot) and not a single building, in order to offer design potential concerning organisational attributes between reinforced masses and inter relationship between the built and the un built. ? ?

Presentation must be submitted.One of these is for the N. I. D. C. archives and the other for the use of the college in A. V. Presentation. The 2nd CD will be returned to the respective college. 1st CD must contain bring up of the college. Two alike copies of a Report (hard bound) not exceeding 20 A4 pages that give an entire overview of the project should accompany the submission. The report should feature the NASA logo appropriately on the cover page and on each page of the report. twain copies should contain the college code and name of the project on the cover.However, only one copy should have the name of the College featured. AUDIO VISUAL PRESENTATION Jury members shall rate the colleges for A. V. presentation. Time given for the short listed entries shall not exceed l0 minutes. No college shall shop its identity in any manner either in sheets, reports or the presentation. 2 copies of the CD containing the soft copy (editable and non editable) of the entire report, sheets and the A. V. Presentation must be submitted. One of these is for the N. I. D. C. archives and the other for the use of the college in A.V. Presentation.
