ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF SPATIAL PLANNING WITH
INTERESTING PATHWAYS.
CEPT UNIVERSITY WAS STARTED IN 1962 UNDER THE
AHMEDABAD EDUCATION SOCIETY AND WAS ACTIVELY SUPPORTED
BY KASTHURBHAI LALBHAI A LEADING INDUSTRALIST AND
PHILANTHROPIST.
THE SCHOOL BROKE AWAY FROM THE CONVENTIONAL TEACHING
COURSES .
THE CONCEPT CHANGED FROM ARCHITECTURE AS THE TECHNICAL
DISCIPLINE TO ARCHITECTURE AS A DESIGN DISCIPLINE.
ABOUT THE COLLEGE :-

ARCHITECTS PHILOSOPHY
I. ELIMINATION OF CLASSROOM FEELING
II. ARCHITECTURE WITHOUT BARRIERS
III. INTEGRATION OF OPEN SPACES
IV. EASE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS..

FEATURES
THE BUILDING IS SET BACK 100FT FROM THE MAIN ROAD AND IS COVERED BY TREES TO CREATE THE
COOL ATMOSPHERE INSIDE THE CAMPUS AND IS HARDLY VISIBLE FROM THE MAIN ROAD…
CREATION OF A PROPER WORKING ENVIRONENT FACILITATING FACULTY AND STUDENTS TO HAVE
FREE SCOPE TO LEARN AND TEACH ANYWHERE…….
EXPOSED LOCAL MATERIALS FOR LOW COST,EASY EXPANSION AND MAINTAINCE…..
THE DESIGN IS INTENDED TO BE CLOSE TO NATURE AND EXPERIMENT THE DESIGNING SKILLS,PLAY
WITH,LEVELS ETC..,THE SITE WAS UNDULATED AND GAVE OPPURTUNITY TO PLAY WITH LEVELS……
THERE ARE INCLINE SKYLIGHTS ON TOP OF THE STUDIOS,PERPETUALLY LETTING IN NATURAL LIGHT
INTO THE SPACES…..
THE STUDIO SPACES HAVE BAY SPACES FACING THE EXTERIOR,CREATING SEMI-PRIVATE SPACES
WHICH ARE YET TOTALLY OPEN TO THE EXTERIOR SPACES WHERE THE INDIVIDUAL CAN BE ALONE
WITH NATURE EVEN IN THE ENVIRONMENT OF A STUDIO…..

POSITIONING OF THE BUILDINGS :-
THE BUILDINGS ARE PLACED ORTHOGONALLY WITH RESPECT TO THE SIDES OF THE
SITE AND HENCE ALONG THE CARDINAL POINTS.
KEEN OBSERVATION IN PLAN REVEALS THAT BUILDINGS ARE ORIENTED IN SUCH A
PASSION THAT TO AVOID THE HARSH SUN LIGHT.
IT ONLY ALLOWS THE LIGHT BUT NOT THE HOT SUN TO THE INTERIORS DURING MID
DAY WHEN THE SUN IS HIGH.
AS WE SEE, THE BUILDINGS ARE PLACED ACCORDING TO THE SUN DIRECTION, THE
SOUTH FACED OF THE BUILDINGS HAS LONG PROJECTIONS AND ON THE NORTH FACADE
OF THE BUILDING HAS SMALL PROJECTIONS……

ROLE OF ENVIRONMENT
THE BUILDINGS ARE PLACED AWAY FROM THE MAIN ROAD WITH TREES AT THE
MIDST OF ROAD AND BUILDING SITE. THEY ARE ACTING AS BARRIERS THAT
REDUCE THE NOSIE POLLUTION FROM THE ROAD. THESE TREES COVERS THE
VIEW OF THE BUILDING FROM OUTSIDE

ARCHITECTURE BLOCK
SIMPLE OPEN INTERACTIVE
SIMPLE:THEY ACHIEVED AESTHETIC S WITHOUT
USING HEAVY ORNAMENTAL ELEMENTS.
OPEN:LOT OF LARGE OPEN SPACES ARE
PROVIDED FOR BETTER CIRCULATION AND GOOD
INTERACTION .
INTERACTION: THEY BOUGHT THE
INTERACTION BETWEEN THE SPACES THAT ARE
CREATED .

THERE ARE MANY INTERCONNECTING PATHWAYS WITH BRICK PAVING AND TERRACOTTA
TILING……
THERE ARE ALSO SMALL PLANTS WITHIN THE BUILDING AND PLOTTED PLANTS AT
PLACES…
THE STEPS IN FACT BECOME EXTERNAL ACTIVITY HUBS WITH STUDENTS USING THE LEVELS
FOR READING,ORGANSING INFORMAL DISCUSSIONS,PERFORMANCES OR EVEN FOR
SIMPLY LAZING AROUND
