Aditya singh(REDESIGN PAREKH HOUSE PROJECT) 3RD SEM. B.ARCH(I.D)

PAREKH HOUSE.............. THE ARCHITECTURAL SECTION WE EVOLVED FOR THE HOUSING IN THE CABINETRY TOWNSHIP AT KOTA CREATES A PYRAMIDAL INTERIOR SPACE CLOSING OFF THE SKY. THUS MINIMIZING HEAT INPUT. SINCE IT IS MAINLY TO BE USED DURING THE HOT SUMMER AFTERNOON. WE CALLED IT THE SUMMER SECTION. CONVERSELY, A REVERSE PYRAMID, OPEN UP TO THE SKY WAS THE WINTER SECTION, USABLE IN THE COLD SEASON. AND ON SUMMER EVENING. THE SITE FOR THE PAREKH HOUSE IN AHMADABAD FACE NORTH- WHICH MEANS THERE WOULD BE CONSIDERABLE HEAT INTAKE FROM THE EAST AND WEST FACED WHICH LIE ALONG THE LONGER AXIS. IN ORDER TO DEAL WITH THIS, WE DEVELOPED A PLAN WHICH CONSIST OF 3 BAYS – SO THAT THE SUMMER SECTION IN THE CENTER IS PROTECTED BY THE WINTER SECTION ON ONE SIDE AND THE SERVICE BAY (FOR CIRCULATION, KITCHEN AND TOILET) ON THE OTHER. THE HOUSE IS CONSTRUCTED OF BRICK BEARING-WALLS SUPPORTING FORM. FINISHED CONCRETE SLAB, WITH THE ELEVATIONS SA DIAGRAMMATIC EXPRESSIONS OF THE CLIMATIC CONCEPTS WHICH GENERATED THIS DESIGN.
