DESIGN BRIEF
DESIGN TOPIC-SCHOOL OF PERFORMING AND FINE ARTS

NEED FOR THE CENTER OF PERFORMING AND FINE ARTS

THE ART AND CULTURE OF A CITY REPRESENTS THE IDENTITY AND PERSONALITY GIVING IT AN IMAGE. THIS
AREA BEING VERY RICH IN TERMS OF ITS CULTURE , ART FORMS, DANCE , TRADITIONAL MUSICS AND ITS
UNIQUE ARCHITECTURE MUST HAVE A PLATFORM TO SHOW CASE ITS TALENTS AS WELL AS TO PASS ON
TRADITIONAL ART FORMS TO THE FUTURE GENERATIONS.

ALTHOUGH MODERNISATION IS CREEPING IT AND CITIES ARE TURNING IN URBAN SPRAWL,ONE NEEDS TO
UNDERSTAND THEIR RESPOSIBILITY TOWARDS A CITIES TRADITIONS AND ART FORMS.THIS PROJECT
COULD HELP THE PEOPLE TO NOT ONLY PURSUE THEIR HOBBIES AS THEIR CAREER BUT ALSO WILL GET A
DEGREE OUT OF IT.

TOPICS CHOSEN FOR THE DESIGN

PERFORMING ARTS – DRAMA AND THEATRE

INFORMATION REGARDING THE COURSE- DURATION – 2 YEAR DEGREE INTAKE – 40 STUDENTS PER BATCH

WHY DRAMA AND THEATRE? ACCORDING TO REPORTS SUBMITTED BY SIR JHONSON D COLIN, DRAMA IS NOT
JUST A WORD IT’S A FEELING OF EXCITEMENT. DRAMA HELPS IN DEVELOPING COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND
EMPATHY SKILLS. DRAMA. IT IS NOT JUST RELATED TO ACTING BUT ALSO VARIOUS THEMES RELATED TO HISTORY,
DANCE ETC. IN TODAYS WORLD THE SCOPE AND THE NEED OF DRAMA IS POSITIVELY INCREASING DAY BY DAY.

THE REASON FOR CHOOSING THIS TOPIC W.R.T. THIS AREA IS THAT, THERE ARE VERY LESS NUMBERS OF DRAMA
SCHOOL IN AND AROUND THS AREA.

LEARN, SPEND TIME ALSO TO RELEASE STRESS.

TOPICS CHOSEN FOR THE DESIGN

INFORMATION REGARDING THE COURSE- DURATION – 2 YEAR DEGREE INTAKE – 40 STUDENTS PER BATCH

WHY PHOTOGRAPHY? WITH THE BOOM OF THIS DIGITAL ERA ALONG WITH SOCIAL MEDIA AS AN ADD ON
PHOTOGRAPHY IS NOW THE MOST POPULAR HOBBY AMONST EVERYONE . THROUGH THIS INSTITUTION MANY
STUDENTS CAN OPT THIS HOBBY AS THEIR COURSE.

THE REASON FOR CHOOSING THIS TOPIC W.R.T. THIS AREA IS THAT, THERE ARE NO PHOTOGRAPHY SCHOOL IN AND

IDEAS TO EXECUTE IN MY DESIGN

1. TO HAVE A LOT OF OPEN SPACES SINCE BOTH THEATRE AND PHOTOGRAPHY REQUIRES OUTDOOR
SPACES TO SHOOT AND TO PRACTICE.

2. TO HAVE A LOT OF MULTIPURPOSE SPACES IN FORM OF ROOMS THAT CAN BE USED FOR
PRACTICING, FOR HOLDING WORKSHOPS, TO HAVE EVENING CLASSES, ETC

3. TO HAVE A LOT OF INTERACTIVE COUTYARDS WITH A LOT OF GREEN SPACES

4. BUILDING SHOULD BE USER FRIENDLY AND SHALL RESPOND TO THE CLIMATIC CONDITIONS OF THIS
AREA.

5. SHALL BE INCLUSIVE AND WELL THOUGHT OF.

6. SHALL HAVE PROPER SEGREGATION IN TERMS OF VISUAL CONNECTION, ENTRANCES AND

MOVEMENT BETWEEN PUBLIC, SEMI PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ZONES.
