Title of the Project
Interstitial Waiting
Location
Ruikar Colony, Kolhapur
On site, getting entries on the garden wall such that it connects the adjacent street with the hospital in between. In a way the porous structure became an extension for both the hospitals and also for the colony houses getting voids in the compounds. Therefore, getting interstitial waiting. So, with dense swirling trees also incorporating the platforms they became the blueprint for swirling of the structure. In plan, the form extends till 5M from the boundary, such that it can end till the lawn area.
Design Plan
Design Elevation
Looking at the elevation considering a small piao or a café at the centre, and subliming the observed levels in the form. The idea of required shade, the porosity, voids and also the garden forms in. Because students attending online classes, people working and the existing plinth which is used as a stage for shows, colony events, fun fares and children playing on slides and swings such that the structure can be used as a pavilion in the future. The other plinth down there is a sand pit existing on site previously. Also the requirement of a washroom located at the right end. The trees and shade can accompany the structure which can be accessed with the inclined surface. The platforms which created for the accommodation of the observed groups, in turn works as a roof for people at a relatively lower level. The swings and slides can go along with the structure. Now that small niche or a corner down there for sittings is initiated as observed in the practise previously .We can see the other view and the usage of space by the people. Considering the movement of the people who come to the hospital can wait and go with their activities. Considering their nervous agility as their loved one is in the hospital, the space can provide clumsiness. Also we saw people sitting, doing work in our observations which can be provided. We get those platforms every 5M from our observation which get the hospital people their nicheness and work as roof down beneath.
Design Details
So getting the idea of making a porous boundary structure for interstitial waiting as an extinction to the hospitals and the colony houses, after the pandemic can be used for hospital waiting. Also a garden infrastructure for children to play, as a rest room for people to sit as we have an existing walking path in the garden. The piao or the eatery can attract people to the structure and also be considered for food take aways. With the colony gatherings, fun fares on the existing stage, the structure can work as a pavilion at various levels in the future.
