THE CEITC AUTHORITY DECIDE TO RE-ALOCATE SOME PROGRAMMES TO A NEW BUILDING WHICH WILL BE USED FOR SOME OPD FACITIES, CLASS ROOMS AND SOME OTHER AMINITIES LIKE KITHCEN , LAUNDRY AND SOME WORKSHOPS. ACCORDING TO THE MIX USAGE , AUTHORITY PROVIDED A PROGRAMME DIAGRAM.
CLIENT : CHITTAGONG EYE INFIRMARY AND TRAINING CENTER (CEITC) AUTHORITY
SITE : FOYS LAKE, CHITTAGONG
SITE AREA : 10,000 sft
STATUS : PROPOSED (2017-)
Design Process
FOR THE INITIAL MEETING WE PREPARED THREE OPTIONS ACCORDING TO SOME BASIC ISSUES LIKE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS AND SPACE ALLOCATION.
Option 1
IN THIS SIX STOREY BUILDING OPTION WE TEND TO KEEP ALL THE NESSECARY FUNCTIONS AS DESCRIBED BY CONSIDERING THE AIR AND LIGHT CIRCULATION ALMOST AT ALL THE
SPACES. SOME FUNCTIONS ARE RELOCATED FOR PROPER USE OF SPACE.
HERE WE PROVIDE A FIRE STAIR WHICH CONNECTED ALL THE FLOORS.
SUFFICIENT VOID SPACES ARE KEPT FOR NECESSARY CIRCULATION. EACH FLOOR CONTAINS GREEN BUFFER ZONE. A 20’ X 20’ INTERMEDIATE VOID FROM 2ND FLOOR
WHICH CONTINUES TO THE TOP FLOOR.
Option 2
THIS SEVEN STOREY BUILDING IS PREPARED CONSIDERING THE SITE CONTEXT, NATURAL BEHAVIOR AND THE AESTHETIC BEAUTY. TO CONSIDER THE PROPER LIGHT AND AIR
VENTILATION WE NEED TO RECONSIDER THE PROVIDED PROGRAMME. SOTHAT WE COULDNOT PROVIDE ALL THE FUNCTIONS AS DESCRIBED BY THE AUTHORITY. THE FIRST
AND FOREMOST CONSIDERATION OF THE DESIGN ISTO MAKE THE STRUCTURE ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY AND MORE EFFICIENT.
HERE WE INTEND TO MAKE A GREEN BUILDING PROVIDING MORE OPEN SPACES , REDUCING CARBON FOOT PRINT AND MAKE A ICONIC STRUCTURE OF THE WHOLE
COMPLEX.
THE CONCEPT IS TO DESIGN A STRUCTURE INSIDE THE CEITC
COMPLEX IN SUCH A MANNER SO THAT IT WILL BE A ICONIC ONE
OF ITS KIND. RATHER CHOSING A RECTANGULAR BOX STRUCTURE WE
FOLLOW THE CONTOUR AND DESIGN THE BUILDING IN SUCH A MANNER SOTHAT IT
BECOMES A PART OF THE AREA.
ACCORDING TO THE SITE CONTEXT THE BUILDING ITSELF GAIN THE FACILITY OF REDUCING HEAT FROM THE DIRECT WEST AS IT HAS A BIG GREEN AREA AT THE WEST SIDE.
CONSIDERING THE SUN PATH DIAGRAM WE MINIMZE THE BUILT STRUCTURE HORIZONTALY RATHER WE EXPAND IT TO THE VERTICAL LINE. WE CREATE SOME BUFFER SPACE AT THE EACH STOREY BY DESIGNING THE GREEN ROOF WHICH WILL ALSO REDUCE THE CARBON FOOT PRINT.
THE BIG HOLLOW SPACE WILL CERTAINLY CONNECT THE BOTH SIDE AS IT IS A INDIVIDUAL LARGE BUILDING IN THE COMPLEX.
Option 3
THIS FIVE STOREY BUILDING OPTION IS PREPARED ACCORDING TO THE PROVIDED INSTRUCTIONS.
THE FIRE-STAIR IS EXCLUDED AS THE AUTHORITY DONOT WANT ONE.
THE DESIGN IS DONE CONSIDERING THE PROGRAMMES TO BE ACCOMODATED RATHER THAN CONSIDERING THE AESTHETIC BEAUTY OF THE STRUCTURE AND IGNORING THE
PROPER AIR AND LIGHT CIRCULATION.
