Publications

T.E.S.S. 02 

T.E.S.S. 02 (The Eclectic Students Section) was the second edition of the annual magazine of my UG architecture school, I.D.E.A.S. (Institute of Design Education and Architectural Studies), Nagpur, India, published in 2015. 

I was a core part of the three-member Editorial & Design Team (see 3rd image in image deck).  

Having served as the Publication Head of the Students Council in 2014, I had the amazing opportunity to work with two of my very talented peers - and each of us brought in our distinct skills which blended together beautifully to bring this magazine to fruition. 

The magazine featured articles and design projects from the faculty and students across all five years of B.Arch. and covered events carried out at the institute.

Architectural Competition Brief - 'Limited Design Competition for MNLU-N (Maharashtra National Law University, Nagpur).'

During my stint at PSA Design Studio, 2016-17, Nagpur, I provided major assistance in drafting the 180-pages Competition Brief for a national level ‘limited/closed’ architectural competition, held as per Council of Architecture (CoA), India guidelines, to solicit design proposals for the 60-acre campus of a National Law University in Nagpur. I worked in close co-ordination with Ar. Paramjit S Ahuja in the entire competition process.

Ten of India’s best firms participated, and renowned senior architects of the country judged the entries. (More details here and on my LinkedIn page.) The campus is presently functional.
