Saima Salahuddin Ar. Muhammad Attique -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------i) Project Aim The aim of this project is to learn to design a highly specialized, functional and technical building type. In this way prepare you to deal with technical projects before you get into final year. ii) Project Brief You are going to design a Health Centre, which is a health care facility, but much smaller in size and scale, available services and facilities, than a hospital.

You may add other facilities, spaces or services that you think should be part of the health centre.

Week 1: Research, Case Studies and Hospital Visits

Part 1: Research For this project you will do detailed research on health centres, clinics and hospitals. You will collect all technical details from T.S.S. etc. You should try and find best practices from around the world and incorporate them in your design if you feel they will work with our local culture, etc. Look for new technology, inventions, ideas that would make health centres more resourceful, helpful and efficient. Part 2: Case Studies You will do at-least 3-4 case studies (International and National) and also visit 3-4 health facilities. You must look at both positive and negative aspects of these projects. During research viewpoints should be taken from all users: the staff, the patents, the visitors, etc.

Week 2: Research Presentation and Design Initiation Week 3: Design Development Week 4: Design Finalization Week 5: Design Submission/ Presentation and Report

Only students with 75% or above attendance will be allowed to give Final jury. You are required to do your design work in studio and have discussion with at least 2 tutors in every class. Discussions will only be done on paper work and not on laptop or computers. No late submissions will be accepted and will be marked absent Time Project Introduction Evaluation 1- Research Evaluation 2 Design Development MID JURY Evaluation 3 FINAL SUBMISSION Surprise 10:00 A.M. 10:00 A.M. 10:00 A.M 10:00 A.M 10:00 A.M.

The sheet size should be a minimum of A1 or 20 x 30 and all sheets must be identical in colour, size, format etc. All sheets should either be in Landscape or in Portrait format, not mixed. Proper formatting of sheets must be done to ensure clear and good presentation. Seal, border, lettering, North sign etc must be clearly marked. Presentation will be given substantial weightage.

Site analysis sheets MUST be properly worked out and thought out and should be correct. Irrelevant maps, redundant analyses, drawings and diagrams not contributing towards the project in any way etc shall have a NEGATIVE effect on your overall grades. Giving wrong information in a final jury sheet is worse than not doing it at all.

The teachers have the discretion to make any changes to the deliverables, deadlines, marking criteria, etc. during the project as they see fit. However, the students will be informed in-advance before the changes are made. GOOD LUCK!
