    MUMBAI CITY MUSEUM NORTH WING DESIGN COMPETITION EXHIBITION Shortlisted Teams’ Summaries Steven Holl Architects Winner ADDITION AS SUBTRACTION: Mumbai City Museum’s new North Wing addition is envisioned as a sculpted subtraction from a simple geometry formed by the site boundaries. The sculpted cuts into the white concrete structure bring diffused natural light into the upper galleries. Deeper subtractive cuts bring in exactly twenty-five lumens of natural light to each gallery. The basically orthogonal galleries are given a sense of flow and spatial overlap from the light cuts. The central cut forms a shaded monsoon water basin which runs into a central pool. In addition to evaporative cooling, the pool provides sixty per cent of the museum’s electricity through photovoltaic cells located below the water’s surface. The white concrete structure has an extension of local rough-cut Indian Agra red stone. The circulation through the galleries is one of spatial energy, while the orthogonal layout of the walls foregrounds the spectacular Mumbai City Museum collections. MUMBAI CITY MUSEUM NORTH WING DESIGN COMPETITION EXHIBITION Shortlisted Teams’ Summaries AL_A Honourable mention Using the power of absence to create connections between the old and the new, a sunken courtyard or aangan, taking inspiration from the deep and meaningful significance of the Indian stepwell, is embedded between the existing Museum building and the new North Wing. The courtyard is a metaphor for the cycle of the seasons, capturing the dramatic contrasts of the climate in the fabric of the museum. It is a metaphor for the cycle of time, where people can rethink their place in the world in a space for contemplation and a place for art and culture.

M.L.B. Girls P.G. College, Bhopal, INDIA ABSTRACT “The secular Indian architecture includes town planning, palaces, general houses and forts of various categories. There was a constant growth in forms of this architecture from the period of harappan culture up to the Vijaynagar epoch. The towns were protected by walls (prakara) and the moats parikha. Each town provided places of general public utility, such as temples, stupas, schools, hospitals, markets, gardens and ponds”.1 Keywords: Hydrolic Engeering, Ornamental Architecture, Bawdi, Indian architecture.

INTRODUCTION Bawdi are usually known as Stepwell, Stairwells, Baori, Baoli or Vav. It is the manmade pond with significant ornamental architectural structure for water conservation of ancient India. These wells are commonly found at western region of India for irrigation and storage of water mainly to cope with seasonal fluctuations.2 Water Exploitation and management have been of great concern for a developing and developed urban civilization that the Harappans created. The most ancient example of water management is found from proto-historic period, primarily from harappan sites. The hydraulic structures from Mohenjo-Daro (undivided India) are eloquent examples which attain the phenomenon excellence.

  • Water Scarcity in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India Jal Bhagirathi Foundation Kathleen Roberts, Michael Reiner, and Kimberly Gray
    Water Scarcity in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India Jal Bhagirathi Foundation Kathleen Roberts, Michael Reiner, and Kimberly Gray NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Research in Jaipur in Summer 2013 | Document completed in Fall 2013 Executive Summary Jaipur, the capital and largest city of the state of Rajasthan, India, is currently experiencing severe water scarcity that threatens drinking water sources. While Jaipur receives only an average of 600 millimeters of precipitation per year, mostly in the monsoon months of June-September, we believe that management issues exacerbate Jaipur’s water scarcity issues. Problems such as poor water quality, a lack of adequate infrastructure (for example in sewage systems, water piping, drainage systems, and water metering), rapid population and area growth, and a lack of unified government are just a few of the issues that play important roles in the complex interactions surrounding Jaipur’s current water scarcity condition. Two engineering students from Northwestern University, Kathleen Roberts and Michael Reiner, traveled to Jaipur in the summer of 2013 to study the water and sanitation system. The conditions of Jaipur’s water resources were investigated by touring various critical sites, conducting literature searches regarding water resources in Jaipur at sites such as Rajasthan University and the Institute for Development Studies, and meeting with professionals in the field of water issues in Jaipur. We were assisted in this assessment by our colleagues at the Jal Bhagirathi Foundation, an organization based in Jaipur and Jodhpur, which “strives to provide an enabling environment in which communities can access adequate drinking water with a vision of water security leading to sustainable development through responsive governance and inclusive growth.” This document looks at the history of Jaipur, specifically focusing on the links between its history, growth, and its water supply system.

Wilson), EBSCOHOST, Google Scholar, WorldCat etc. Steps to Water: Stepwells in India Sharad Chandra Independent Researcher Steps to water or the stepwells in India are pretty amazing structures not found anywhere else in the world. They are one of the most unique and very little known parts of the Indian architecture, especially the beautifully carved walls of these subterranean water sources. Stepwells are basically deep dug trenches or rock-cut wells or ponds of water reached by a winding set of stairs or steps and are variously known as ‘bawdi’, ‘baoli’, ‘vav’, ‘vavdi’, ‘vai’, ‘kalyani’, or ‘pushkarni’. The Sanskrit Silpa-Shastras and ancient inscriptions refer to them as ‘Vapi’ or ‘Vapika’. The western India has a hot and semi- arid climate and capricious rainfall. Therefore, it always had to collect the water of the monsoon rains and keep it accessible for the remaining dry months of the year. That is how the stepwells came into being. For centuries they remained an integral part of the western Indian communities as sites for drinking, washing, and bathing, as well as for colorful festivals and sacred rituals. They also served as cool sanctuaries for caravans, pilgrims, and common travellers during the heat of the day or for an overnight stay. But these magnificent structures were much more than utilitarian reservoirs.
