INTRODUCTION

The CEPT campus is located over6 acres of land in Navrangpura area of the city of Ahmedabad.

ARCHITECT- Ar. B V DOSHI

It took endless cups of tea, cigarette butts and countless discussions under shady trees before architects B V Doshi, Christopher Benninger and economist Y K Alagh conceptualized the school of planning at CEPT university.

The CEPT has four schools functioning under it, viz :

School of Planning

School of Architecture

School of Building Science & Technology

School of Interior Design

MATERIALS

THE USE OF MATERIALS IN THE BUILDING ARE INTERESTING.

THE WALLS OF THE BUILDING ARE CONSTRUCTED OF EXPOSED BRICK AND RCC.

THE EXPOSED BRICK WORK GIVES AN EERIE LOOK TO THE STRUCTURE.

THEY ALSO INCREASE THE THERMAL PERFORMANCE OF THE BUILDING.

FEATURES

SKYLIGHTS:

One can see an interesting use of skylights in the structure.

Maximum skylights are provided on the north faade of the building

There are open to sky(OTS) corridors provided in the campus.

Provision of flexible spaces which can be used in multifunctional manner.

Strong connectivity between spaces making it an open space with no doors

The building covers almost the entire site leaving very less green area.

The plan follows the site boundary with a setback of 6m maintaining its character.

Academic clusters have been grouped together to form units comprising class rooms, labs, common lobby, and service spaces.

The planning revolves around the two courts- the sunken cover with a stepped kund and the amphitheatre

ABOUT THE BUILDING

stepped kund

Amphitheatre.

Building is aligned with its long sides along NW and SE axis, facilitating good exposure to the sun and breeze, at times causing glare.

Different blocks of building complex are placed according to the site lines. All the peripheral building lines are parallel to the site lines.

ORIENTATION

The site is basically divided in to three basic zones.

Academic block are similar in plan and in function.

Administrative block along with canteen and library is in right hand side.

The Hostel block is placed at the back of the site.

PEARL ACADEMY,JAIPUR

The Jaipur campus has an excellent infrastructure to facilitate design learning and education.

the foundation stone of this campus on 29th January 2007, during her tenure as the Governor of Rajasthan. The Jaipur Campus boasts state-of-the-art Jewellery & Gemology Labs. It is fully equipped with learning equipment and spaces required by an international design college and boasts of alumni who are amongst the whos who of design professionals today.

The Jaipur Campus hosted the 14th International Conference of the International Foundation for Fashion Technology Institutes in 2012. Spread over 3.28 acres, the state-of-the-art Jaipur Campus provides its students with advanced teaching facilities, making it the ideal place to learn the nuances of fashion and design. The campus also won the Best Learning Building award at the World Architecture Festival Awards, 2009.

COURSES

The study programme of the cources offer :

School of fashion styling and textiles

School of design

School of communication,media and Films

School of creative business

The building is protected from the environment by a double skin which is derived from a traditional building element called the Jaali which is prevalent in Rajasthani architecture. The double skin acts as a thermal buffer between the building and the surroundings. The density of the perforated outer skin has been derived using computational shadow analysis based on orientation of the faades. The outer skin sits 4 feet away from the building and reduces the direct heat gain through fenestrations. Drip channels running along the inner face of the Jaali allow for passive downdraft evaporative cooling, thus reducing the incident wind temperature.

CLIMATE INFULENCED DESIGN

plan

courtyards

The scheme relies on self shading sliver courts to control the temperatures of internal spaces and open stepped wells while allowing for sufficient day lighting inside studios and class rooms. The entire building is raised above the ground and a scooped out under belly forms a natural thermal sink which is cooled by water bodies through evaporative cooling. This under belly which is thermally banked on all sides serves as a large student recreation and exhibition zone and forms the anchor for the entire project. During the night when the desert temperature drops this floor slowly dissipates the heat to the surroundings keeping the area thermally comfortable. This time lag suits the staggered functioning of the institute.

landscape

Material used

The materials used for construction are a mix of local stone, steel, glass, and concrete chosen keeping in mind the climatic needs of the region while retaining the progressive design intent. Energy efficiency is a prime concern and the institute is 100% self sufficient in terms of captive power and water supply and promotes rain water harvesting and waste water re-cycling through the use of a sewage treatment plant

About the college

. Besides having become a very successful model for cost effective passive architecture in desert regions the design and facilities of the campus complement the ideology of the Pearl Academy of Fashion a cutting edge design institute with a sustainable approach. The Pearl Academy of Fashion is an exemplar of an inclusive architecture which intends to accommodate all the heritage values while positioning it within the contemporary cultural and architectural paradigm.
