Master of Architecture - Thesis Project
Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University
Advisor: Dr. Archana Gaikwad
The Make in India initiative by the current government encourages startups to explore manufacturing, IT and consultancy services. Nashik is a tier-two city with many automobile manufacturing units and expertise in wine-making.
By developing an incubation park, the industrial community will be revitalized bringing in economic and social growth for its people.
A sustainable campus can affect long-term behavioral change in its residents. It is the intent that by providing infrastructure rich with locally sourced material that encourages and employs local artisans and craftsmen, and by designing a closed loop system, the startups inhibiting the campus would follow the lead.
Thin permeable envelope coupled with bamboo louvers to augment cross ventilation, singly loaded corridors, staggered planning, permeable hard surfaces, green roofs, solar PV park, water retention ponds, and bicycle racks are some of the green strategies that have been applied.
