艾哈迈达巴德大学工程技术学院的建筑设计体现了学术四合院的类型–一个中央庭院花园,两边是学生和教师的房间。这个回廊永恒而又现代,固定了一个学生和学者的社区–其中许多人是他们家庭中第一个上大学的。

The architectural design for the Institute of Engineering and Technology at Ahmedabad University exemplifies the typology of an academic quadrangle – a central courtyard garden, flanked by student and faculty rooms. Timeless yet contemporary, this cloister anchors a community of students and scholars – many of whom are the first in their families to attend college.

该结构通过一系列的柱子来补充空间的顺序,创造出灵活的大跨度空间,适合不断发展的学术项目。建筑物的流通–以悬臂楼梯和屏风长廊的形式–与庭院交织在一起,在景观和建筑之间创造了一种动态关系。

The structure compliments the sequence of space with an array of columns, creating flexible large-span spaces, suitable for an evolving academic program. The building circulation – in the form of cantilevered stairs and screened galleries – weaves alongside the courtyard, creating a dynamic relationship between landscape and architecture.

画廊和走廊的设计是为了促进无缝移动,同时用一排砂岩长椅为花园的景色提供休息。该建筑以敏感的方式处理激烈的气候条件–夏季温度飙升至45摄氏度–采用红色砂岩屏风来过滤阳光,同时加强房间里的光影游戏。

The galleries and corridors are designed to facilitate seamless movement, while offering repose with a line of sandstone benches oriented towards views of the garden. The architecture engages an intense climatic condition – summer temperatures soar to 45 degrees Celcius – with sensitivity, employing red sandstone screens to filter the sun while enhancing the play of light and shadow in the rooms.

景观设计唤起了建筑内的微气候:一个下沉式花园 “kund “位于食堂和礼堂之间,为学生创造了一个非正式的聚会空间;礼堂的屋顶被设计成一个遮阳的露台 “maidaan”–一个铺设好的花园–提供了艾哈迈达巴德大学广场的视野。红色砂岩屏风在中央庭院内编织成一个动感的雕塑,白天过滤光线,黄昏时发出柔和的光芒。

The landscape design evokes micro-climates within the building: a sunken garden “kund” is situated between the canteen and the auditorium, creating an informal gathering space for students; the roof of the auditorium is designed as a shaded terrace “maidaan” – a paved garden – offering views of the Ahmedabad University plaza. Red sandstone screens weave a kinetic sculpture within the central courtyard, filtering light by day and emitting a soft glow at dusk.

艾哈迈达巴德在教育和建筑方面培育了一个罕见的、卓越的遗产。艾哈迈达巴德大学的工程和技术学院庆祝这一愿景的更新。

Ahmedabad nurtures a rare and remarkable legacy of excellence in education and in architecture. The Institute of Engineering and Technology at Ahmedabad University celebrates a renewal of this vision.
