T he Screen Project
T he Pavillion Project
THE screen project was a part of studio competition focused
on developing the concept for design and fabrication
of a surface screening the bicyle stand underneath the
Stuckeman building. The surface was developed using
mesh geometry, with opening size varying with respect to
the distance from the bike stand. Opening geometry was
initially developed in 3DS Max, however detail geometry
was to be developed using Grasshopper.

CONCEPT THE main concept was to create visual interest along
the movement pattern of the visitors. Interest was
created through variation of volumes, double triple
Elevation

visual continuity through the galleries.
Entry Level
The gallery spaces were divides into two experiences:
3 2 a linear space for exhibiting basic sciences and allied
disciplines, while an independant rectangular units
for exhibiting advanced sciences.
3 The movement spine was then created to respond
to this gallery sequence and the cexisting terrain.
1 Gallery spaces were designed as ‘bulk’ volumes
interspersed with ‘light & transparent ’ break areas.

4 The masses were spread out over landscape so as
to enclose an outdoor exhibition area, covered with
tensile roof for shade. Artificial cooling was totally
avoided through an innovative shading design
pattern, ample scope for cross ventilation and
provision for forced ventilation. The shading screen

The scope of the thesis was to develop the program and masterplan for the

THE program was to design a Domestic Airport Terminal on proposed site in Navi Mumbai, with four gates and
connection with the existing Rail network. The design evolved as a direct response to the passenger movement
pattern, with departures on upeer level and arrivals on ground.
