This project summarizes the Life Insurance Corporation housing development in Ahmedabad, India designed by architect Balkrishna Doshi in 1973. The development consists of 324 row houses arranged in duplex terraced units across 54 plots. There are three house typologies ranging from single bedroom to double bedroom units. The houses are designed to accommodate extended families and allow for flexibility over time. Shared courtyards and communal spaces encourage community and social interaction among residents.

The document compares two interstate bus terminals (ISBT) in India based on their design features and facilities. Both have a hot and dry climate.

Some positive aspects of the ISBTs are facilities for disabled access, fire safety measures, and a connected shopping mall. However, some negative aspects are lack of accessibility for disabled people to certain areas, poor ventilation in administrative areas, and absence of clear signage leading to confusion over entries.

It aims to provide physical, mental, and social rehabilitation through various training programs to help the children become independent. The center also seeks to be environmentally sustainable and provide spaces that meet the developmental needs of different age groups.

The document summarizes the landscaping characteristics of the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi campus. Some key points: - The campus uses sustainable landscaping concepts focusing on trees that purify air and create a healthy environment rather than just aesthetics. Softscape like lawns, hedges and trees covers 65% of the area. - Ashoka trees line the approach road and pathways. A water fountain is located at the entrance. Various trees like Sterculia Alatia provide shade across campus. - Central courtyards within buildings are used for seating. One courtyard could utilize space better by moving the cafeteria within it and adding lighting. - The landscape focuses on central circulation paths

This document contains summaries of several case studies: 1) The India International Centre in Delhi uses traditional jaali screens and cross ventilation to keep interiors cool without mechanical cooling. Water bodies and landscaping also provide evaporative cooling. 2) The India Habitat Centre in Delhi is organized around climate-tempered courtyards shaded by overhead sunscreens and vertical gardens. Buildings are connected by bridges at upper levels. 3) The Disha school in Jaipur prioritizes accessibility with ramps and corridors. A central atrium provides views of activity spaces, while a garden provides a sound barrier.
