GPM Architects and Planners’ Post

The fabric that gets woven when historic cities like Pune get overlayed with new urban layouts fascinates me. It also throws up interesting wayfinding challenges. Dhanukar Colony is one such neighborhood in Pune. The first time I went there, I got lost, my auto kept going in circles till we found the house I was looking for. Low internet connection meant we had already missed the left that we were supposed to take 10 seconds ago. Solving such navigational challenges in Wayfinding & Signage usually starts with assigning a Wayfinding model to the space, again based on it’s layout — Kevin Lynch’s theory of urban legibility. Let’s find out what could work for this quaint neighborhood in Pune. #wayfinding #wayfindingmodels #navigation

Here’s presenting a case-study-worthy mixed-use development by DSP Design that seamlessly integrates disparate functionalities across a bisected site amassing 1.75 million sq. ft – VR Metropolitan, Delhi. Leveraging the existing Delhi metro tunnel as a structural datum, the masterplan includes a landscaped garden deck, enhancing social connectivity. Departing from conventional structures, buildings are designed as interconnected blocks, reflecting Delhi's historic urban fabric. The masterplan intelligently divides the site into Plots A & B, while these plots are further separated by strategically placed ‘streets,’ referencing the traditional narrow alleyways that define the city's character. Transcending the boundaries of conventional development, while paying homage to the essence of Delhi - its dynamism & interconnectedness, VR Metropolitan represents an ecosystem where commercial vitality thrives alongside a flourishing community.

In the context of the building industry, “green” typically refers to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. It involves designing and constructing buildings in a way that minimizes their impact on the environment, promotes energy efficiency, and uses renewable resources. This can include using eco-friendly materials, implementing energy-efficient systems, and incorporating green spaces or landscaping into building designs. “Landscape” in this context refers to the outdoor areas surrounding a building, which can be designed and maintained to enhance the overall aesthetic appeal, functionality, and sustainability of the built environment.
