4. APPROACH MAIN ACCESS ON THE NORTHEN SIDE TWO ENTRANCES ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE WHICH IS AN INTERNAL ACCESS TWO ENTRANCES ON THE WESTREN SIDE SITE THE SITE IS LOCATED IN THE KASTURIBHAI LALBHAI CAMPUS IN NAVARANGAPURA,AHMEDABAD,GUJARATH… IT LIES WITHIN A ZONE OCCUPIED BY OTHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS THIS CEPT UNIVERSITY IS LOCATED AT THE EDGE OF THE EDUCATIONAL ZONE,SO IT IS ALSO IMMEDIATELY PROXIMAL TO SOME RESIDENTIAL ZONE…. TOPOGRAPHY THE GENERAL SLOPE IS TOWARDS THE NOTH WESTERN CORNER CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

6. 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 :- CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

7. ARCHITECTS PHILOSOPHY I. ELIMINATION OF CLASSROOM FEELING II. ARCHITECTURE WITHOUT BARRIERS III. INTEGRATION OF OPEN SPACES IV. EASE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS.. CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

8. 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….. CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

9. 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…… CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

10. 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 CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

11. 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 .

20. CENTRAL COURTYARD THE CENTRAL COURT YARD IS A COMBINATION OF PAVED AND UNPAVED AREAS,SHADED BY TREES IN CERTAIN AREAS…. ALL ENTRANCES ARE LINKED TO THE COURTYARD BY PEDESTRAIN PATHWAYS…….. HENCE THE COURTYARD IS AN AREA OF HEAVY CIRCULATION OF INTERACTION……. CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

21. STUDIOS THE STUDIOS HAVE LARGE OPENINGS WHICH OPEN INTO THE GREENARY OUTSIDE…… PANELS AT THE SIDES HELP THE STUDENTS TO PUT UP THE IMPORTANT AND USEFUL SHEETS…. ALL THE STUDIOS ARE ABOVE ONE ANOTHER,ALONG WITH THE ADJACENT LECTURE ROOMS…….. THERE ARE COMMON INTERACTION ZONES BETWEEN THE STUDIOS OF DIFFERENT YEARS……….

23. VENTILATION THE PARALLEL WALLS,FORMING AN OPEN TUBE OF SPACE ARE PREDOMINANTLY ALIGNED NORTH-SOUTH,EFFECTIVELY CLOSE TO EAST AND WEST SIDES…….. NORTH SIDE IS HEIGHTENED TO ALLOW MORE LIGHT IN WHILE THE SOUTH SIDE IS KEPT LOW TO SHIELD FROM DIRECT RADIATION…… CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

24. LANDSCAPE THE CAMPUS IS FULL OF NEEM TREES,WHICH WERE PLANTED OVER THE YEARS SINCE THE INTIAL PHASE MAKES HOT AHMEDABAD CLIMATE COOLER…….. THE TREES PROVIDE A PERPETUAL CHANGING PATTERN OF LIGHT AND SHADE….. 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 CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY

25. DESIGN FEATURES ALL BUILDINGS ARE ORIENTED IN THE NORTH-SOUTH DIRECTION……. OPEN SPACES ON THE NORTH AND SOUTH SIDE RESPECTIVELY ALLOW FRESH AIR TO VENTILATE THE BUILT STRUCTURES THE OPEN SPACES AND THE SHADED ONCE MERGE WITH THE LANDSCAPE………. THE OPEN SPACES IS LINKED TO THE OFFICE AND LIBRARY AREA WORKSHOP AND CANTEEN….. THE AREAS ARE VERY LIVELY AND DYNAMIC………. CENTRE FOR ENIVIRONMENTAL PLANNING AND TECHNOLOGY
