- 23. SUZLON ONE EARTH, PUNE • Between the eternal & the transformational • An exemplary model of tradition and modernity designed with adaptability and balance. • Balance between mind & spirit- creating a central gathering space, or Brahmasthan, with the sky as its ceiling! I conceived it as a “secret internal garden” that gifts an exclusive and unique feel to the campus. • Suzlon is about sustainability ; it is about renewable energy. • Plot area: 10.76 acres • Built up area: 47,338 sq.mt • Basement area: 29,050sq.mt • Road area: 11,127 sq.mt • Landscaped area: 16,413 sq.mt • Date of completion: March 2010
- 24. SUZLON ONE EARTH, PUNE • BALANCE WITH TRADITION Suzlon One Earth derives its inspiration from large Indian historical campuses like Fatehpur Sikri and the Meenakshi Sundareshvara Temple complex in Madurai. Both employ an interpositioning of open and closed spaces that balances one another. Both have strong horizontal elements that tie the complexes together and accent features that emphasize quadrants and sacred places, like the gopuram at Meenakshi.

- 38. The Administration Building cleverly exploits northern light through its wavy glass atrium wall, while generating electricity through the grand photovoltaic south- facing façade that produces 30 KW of electricity.

- 40. DIFFERENT VIEWS OF THE ACADEMIC BLOCK
- 42. VIEW OF THE WORKSHOP BUILDING The three hundred feet long photovoltaic solar wall in the Maritime Workshop produces 60 KW of electricity. Clear glass on the north façade brings in natural light, giving the testing equipment and machinery all- round, energy free illumination and ventilation.
- 43. HOSTEL BLOCK
- 44. Aluminum louvers in the long Hostel Building allow natural ventilation and day light, while blocking India’s fierce sun, thereby acting as a passive air conditioning system. Solar panels provide the entire heated water requirement, using hot water tanks held above the hostel roofs from water tanks above the circular stairs. These seemingly frivolous shapes are integrated within a functional system of water management.

CASTRO CAFE • Architects: Romi Khosla Design Studios • Location: New Delhi, India • Chief architects: Martand Khosla, Romi Khosla • Design team: Praveen Rajput, Maulik Bansal • Project area: 890 sq.m • DESIGN CONCEPT This canteen was proposed as a ‘Semi open air Café’. This allowed to have an ambient temperature for most of the year along with good ventilation, and a variety of degrees of shade from the climate. The design is truly unique and contemporary and we feel, will herald a new age of Architecture for the University.

- 67. The idea was to try and blur the boundaries between inside and outside, where these undefined boundaries act as a negotiator between the user and the climate of Delhi.
- 68. The building block has a kitchen block to the east, which is a fully enclosed space to cook and serve in. As One walks along the length of the building westwards, initially the eating enclosure is defined by two walls and a roof, further still the sense of interior is defined by one wall and the roof, further still the space is articulated by only one wall, and yet further still, there is only the floor, and then that too stops continuing. SEATING DETAIL
- 69. All the elements of the building are defined distinctly and independent from each other. The walls don’t touch the floor and the roof does not touch the walls. This was the first steel building built at the university campus.

- 74. The fenestration has been designed to have twin functions. On the north faces of the building, where the clinics have been located, the structural curtain wall glazing provides enormous daylight for dental treatment. NORTH FACE SOUTH FACE On the south side, the glazing has been confined to narrow slits which run horizontally and protect the south of the building in the clinic areas from heat gain. These staggered fenestrations also break the scale and the thin strips of windows help in exaggerating the horizontality of the structure.
- 75. The materials used for the structure of the building are reinforced concrete frames, structural steel staircases and corridors, brick walls. Stone is used for cladding wall surfaces, structural glass for the north light window facades, aluminium sheeting for cladding the brisk walls. In order to further reduce energy consumption, the treatment clinics have been provided with full 80% north side glazing that allows ample daylight to flood the clinics. This helps the treatment during power cuts and naturally light spaces ensure a higher level of cleanliness.
