Campus Design for NIFT
A dynamic campus for NIFT ( National Institute for Fashion Technology ). This type of structure belongs to the architectural movement of 'Neo Futurism '. This movement is similar to the fashion technology, as both experiments with new technology and materials for creating new forms.
View of the site
The fluidic form of the structures is inspired by the water stream at the center of the site.
The vehicular circulation is only along the periphery of the site, allowing only pedestrian movement inside the site.
Developing the form of the structures
The shape of the external shell of the auditorium is derived by understanding the volumes required and abstracting the contours around. It creates a structure that gives a sense of continuity from the ground to the structure.
External shell
The shell joins the structure seamlessly with the ground. Space frame are used for achieving the external form of the structure, because of its complex doubly curved form.
Site Section
There is a connection between inside and outside spaces, because of the panaromic views from the curve facades
