Prof. Shilpa Ingawale, Assistant Professor. APCOA, Pune. Kazuyo Sejima (1956): An Architect is a professional who transforms building designs into reality, ensuring functionality, safety, and creative vision. Collaborating with engineers, they develop concepts for structures that meet project goals and operational standards, bringing architectural projects to life. Looking from third eye this profession looks like, heavy extrovert site coordination work with client, many consultants, till labour and contractor. One may find this for male oriented, as in the 21st century it remains a male-dominated field. But it seems, Architecture as a profession has attracted women since the late 19th century only. (Ref: Britannica) We find various interesting projects like museums, universities, skyscrapers, City development etc in every corner of the world designed by creative Women Architects. Just for reference we can find quick list of 8 famous Women Architects all around the World, who built—even whole cities—in every corner of the world with special recognition.  The Japanese architect and principal with her partner Ryue Nishizawa of the Tokyo-based firm SANAA rose to fame with her dramatic designs, many for contemporary art museums: 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, Ishikawa, Japan (2004); Glass Museum, Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo, Ohio (2006); New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York City (2007); and the Louvre Lens, an annex to the Paris museum in northern France (2012), to name a few. Sejima, with her partner, has won numerous awards, including the Pritzker Prize in 2010. Ar. Judith Edelman:-(1923-2014) New York City Pioneer of Women in Architecture She designed many notable multi-family affordable housing projects, among other works. She was feminist, social activist, and an architect. A force to be reckoned with, was called “Dragon Lady” by her peers led the first AIA task force on women in 1974 at the American Institute of Architects (AIA) pointing out that only 1.2 percent of architects were women. She made a career of restoring historic buildings and designing affordable housing. In 1990 she and her husband, Harold, received the AIA New York Chapter’s Andrew J. Thomas Pioneer in Housing Award. She became the first woman to be elected to the Board of Directors of New York’s AIA chapter and was a founding member of the Alliance of Women in Architecture in 1972. Edelman was also the inspiration for the 1974 children’s book What Can She Be? An Architect, by Gloria and Esther Goldreich. Jane Drew:-Chandigarh, India This British modernist architect left her mark in her own country as well as in Africa, the Middle East, India, and Sri Lanka. Her most famous project was the development of Chandigarh, the new capital city of Punjab, India, in 1951. She worked alongside Le Corbusier, her husband and partner Maxwell Fry, and Pierre Jeanneret to create a modern city from scratch. She and Fry focused on designing affordable, practical housing. Among her many other accomplishments, she was also instrumental to the establishment of the Institute of Contemporary Art in London, securing its land and designing its interior. Denise Scott Brown :- Architect, planner, urbanist, theorist, writer and educator have had a global influence on architects for nearly fifty years, transforming thinking about architecture and cities. , Scott Brown has an impressive list of accomplishments as an architec  t, theorist, and educator. Often overshadowed by her husband (also her partner), Robert Venturi, Scott Brown made headlines when she was excluded from the Pritzker Prize awarded to Venturi in 1991. Through their writings and building designs, she and her husband were pioneers in the move away from modernist glass-and-steel structures, favoring instead the use of ornament and historical and vernacular references. Her architectural design and planning can be seen on university campuses throughout the United States and her preservation planning in historic districts in Philadelphia; Galveston, Texas; and Miami Beach, Florida. Jeanne Gang:- A true “starchitect,” Gang has steadily risen to the top of her field since her firm opened in 1997. She became a household name with her addition of the Aqua Tower (2010) to the Chicago skyline. She and Studio Gang have won numerous awards and were the subject of a solo exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago in 2012-13. Some of her notable works include the SOS Lavezzorio Community Center (2008), the Nature Boardwalk at the Lincoln Park Zoo (2010), and the WMS Boathouse at Clark Park (2013), all in Chicago. Hayden was the first woman to be accepted to and graduate from (1890) MIT’s prestigious architecture program. Despite her credentials, she had a hard time finding work once she graduated. Her big break came when her design was chosen for the Women’s Building of the World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. Unfortunately, she retired from the male-dominated architecture field after enduring unfair treatment throughout the construction of the building and when she saw her remarkable accomplishment torn down after the fair. Imagine what she might have achieved were she living a century later Zaha Hadid :- The most famous architect on the list, Hadid was the first woman to win the Pritzker Prize (2004). Besides that honor, her big personality and bold designs have proven she could hold her own in the still male-dominated field. Her buildings are distinct, incorporating asymmetry, fluidity, and unexpected twists and turns. Some of her award-winning works include the National Center for Contemporary Arts in Rome (2010), Evelyn Grace Academy, London (2011), and the Heydar Aliyev Center, Baku, Azerbaijan (2012). Lina Bo Bardi:- A modernist architect, Bo Bardi did most of her work in her adopted home of Brazil. She was a prolific designer of buildings, jewelry, and furniture. Her 1950s bowl chair remains her best known design. She dedicated her life’s work to creating a truly Brazilian vernacular architecture. The needs and habits of her buildings’ inhabitants were primary to her design ethic. She lived and designed buildings in impoverished regions of Brazil and put her efforts toward the preservation of historic districts there. Her Museum of Art of São Paulo (1968) and Social Service for Commerce Building-Pompéia, São Paulo (built in stages, 1977-86) are icons

An overview of job requirements in food industry and allied industries Ms. Ritu Watturkar and Ms. Rachana Koli India’s food processing sector covers fruit and vegetables; spices; meat and poultry; milk and milk products, beverages, fisheries, plantation, grain processing and other consumer product groups such as confectionery, chocolates and cocoa products, soya-based products, mineral water, high protein foods etc. The Indian food processing industry accounts for 32 per cent of India’s total food market. Estimated to be worth US$ 121 billion, it is one of the largest industries in India, and is ranked fifth in terms of production, consumption and exports. The Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) has formulated an Action Plan that includes trebling the size of the food processing industry, raising the level of processing of perishables and minimising wastage, increasing value addition by encouraging Research and development, provide policy support to enhance farmers income and enhancing India’s share in global food trade. Food processing enhances shelf life and adds value even if agricultural produce is merely cleaned, sorted, and packaged. Further processing into high value-added products garners greater revenue for the producer. Food Processing is also employment intensive, around 9 million jobs are expected to be generated by 2024. The growth of the Food Processing Industry is likely to be driven by growth in consumption pattern of food (which is in turn driven by rising incomes, changing lifestyles, and a growing middle class), gradual acceptance of processed food and rising share in the export markets. The hubs of growth in this will be Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh. Anantrao Pawar College of Architecture, Pune offers course in Food Science at the undergraduate level.

There is no match for technical acumen in food processing; therefore, candidates possessing excellent domain knowledge and skills always have higher employability.

Does interior spaces affect our health? This is a simple question with a simple answer, yes it does affect our moods, our emotions, and even our very behaviour, but this is not the correct question to ask the correct question is, “How many Interior designers take it in to consideration while designing the spaces?” When we talk about interior space, it is the aesthetic appeal that most of us think about, which refers to its exterior look and feel. But there’s more to it than what seems to be on the surface and it is not just the functionality, but the psychology that matters too. Functionality is just one of the many multiple factors that are often stressed about, but psychology is one such factor that greatly impacts the inhabitants. Thus in interior designing, space psychology plays a great role in defining the look of the place. Psychology of space is a subject that helps deep diving into the understanding, importance, and usage of space which is integral and helps students to forge a bond with the environment and the residents of the home. Let’s understand further to know more about space psychology in interior designing. In conclusion, it has been established that interior spaces can affect our mental and physical well-being. Designing any interior space has lots of aspects to consider, but it is our responsibility as Interior designer to not only focus on the form and the function of our designs, but also how our designs will impact our clients, and how could we use interior spaces to improve the quality of life of the people. An interior designer do not just design the space but he/she design a relationship between the users and that spaces. for a long time, as designer designed with no idea regarding the impact of their designs on our well-being, a responsibility that designers are acknowledging nowadays and working towards achieving it. If you are interested in learning more about the social and psychological aspects of creating interior spaces then explore our on-campus degree in Interior Design.

The Sun Temple in Konark exhibits the traditional Odisha style of architecture, also known as Kalinga architecture. Nestled on the east coast of the Bay of Bengal, the Sun Temple in Konark is one of the most spectacular sights that await you in Odisha. In the 13th century temple got designed as a colossal ornamented stone chariot led by seven stone horses and dedicated to the Sun God Surya. The Sun Temple is an incredible masterpiece of architecture. That attracts tourists, historians, and archaeologists from all over the world. The temple was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is Also known as Surya Devalaya, Black Pagoda. Today, the Sun Temple of Konark stands as the finest example of the architectural brilliance of a bygone era. India is a country with diverse cultures, traditions, and architectural styles. Like no other country in the world, since nearly 4000 years ago, India has developed an incredibly rich heritage that captivates several religious and artistic influences.The roots of Indian architecture are embedded, in its history and culture. There exist several styles and traditions in Indian architecture, and the best known for their intricacies are the contrasting styles of Hindu temple architecture and Indo-Islamic architecture. The history in the Architecture of India is so deeply rooted in the culture and regions that it reflects the stories of that era very meticulously in the carvings of the structures. Indian Architecture, with an extensive context in earlier styles, teleports you to an epoch of ancient mysteries and masterpieces all over the country. Konark sun temple is an example of one of those masterpieces. It is the inspiration for modern architects who can take most of it.  

Introduction: Traditional Indian interior design style is exotic, sophisticated, and full of royal and tempting looks. Traditional interior design is a popular style of décor based on 18th- and 19th-century European styles. The architecture of India is rooted in its history, culture, and religion. In ancient India, the contrasting Hindu temple architecture and Indo-Islamic architecture are the best-known historical styles. The architects themselves used to design the interiors of the home. It has referred from Vishwakarma an architect, who is a god in Indian mythology. The history of interior design in India has begun from yesteryears and goes on till today.  India has a rich history and diversity of traditional arts and crafts that continue to shape our country is distinct socio-cultural fabric. India has a vast repository of artisanal skills that have been nurtured from generation to generation. When incorporated within architecture and interior design, they provide an important link to the past and a strong sense of identity. Over the years, experts have been exploring regional narratives, local skills, and materials, experimenting and re-interpreting traditional mores for new, personalized expressions as a result of engagement with skilled artisans. Indian traditional Architecture has always been inquisitive due to its magnanimity and arty creations. Did you know that among the 830 World Heritage Sites listed by UNESCO, 26 belong to Indian soil?India has seen many architectural styles which developed the course of history. Some of inspired modern interior design The idea of Modern interior designing was influenced by the Bauhaus and Le Corbusier and then brought to India. And the subsequent Art Deco movement influenced by regional and exotic motifs also counted as modern. Even neoclassical architecture was still pronounced modern into the 1950s and even the 1960s.In recent times, we have heard the terms India Modern or Indian Modernism used to describe a defined style of home decor. We reached out to leading interior designers and architects to learn about what the design ethos means to them and easy ways to incorporate it into our homes. Though we can’t bring back the palaces of the Mughals or the Rajputs and the intricacies of temple art, Indian Modernism is a way to bridge that divide by introducing small elements and patterns, charm, and grace into the new wave of design. Architectural education has an integral role in modern interiors, which includes a traditional touch. The design of interior spaces is a significant part of the architectural profession. Yet, to what extent does architectural education keep pace with changing demands in rendering topics. This study explores interior design-related courses taught in APCOA architectural programs. To qualify for an entry-level position with an architecture or design firm, interior architects need a B. Arch degree. Interior design does not just stand with a look and beauty. It can also showcase even a studio apartment as a residence that has enough space with the help of proper design and comforting lighting, while a poor interior design makes a larger house that lacks space. Interior designers are experts in creating more spaces, improving space efficiency, improving the functional usage of space, improving the lighting effect, improving the colour effects, improving the textures, patterns, scale, size, etc. They are also experts in selecting fittings & equipment. Hence interior design is much important than it seems. For that architecture, education is a must. When you look at interior design styles throughout history, contemporary interior design is the one style that is evolving. The design style will most likely continue to change over the twenty-first century. Modern refers to anything of the present moment. Traditional to Modern and Transitional, the style of Interior Architecture Design has defined and redefined the way of living and lifestyle. There are three primary ways to recreate Indian Modernism at home. India is well known for its rich and varied culture, heritage, and history, it can see in architectural marvels such as Sun Temple, Taj Mahal and many more. In the present times, the Indian interior design style remains diverse and understandable even after getting influenced by the different dynasties across the country. Indian style interior design is one of the most exotic styles to work. So there is tremendous scope for architecture students with Modern interior designing. APCOA Pune provides the best course in Architecture of interior design, more details you can visit https://apcoapune.org/

Introduction Sustainable architecture is an architecture that seeks to minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy, development space, and the ecosystem at large. Sustainable architecture uses a conscious approach to energy and ecological conservation in the design of the built environment. The idea of sustainability, or ecological design, is to ensure that our use of presently available resources does not end up having detrimental effects on our collective well-being or making it impossible to obtain resources for other applications in the long run. Importance of sustainable architecture: Design elements used by architects: When designing public buildings with sustainability in mind, architects use the following top five sustainable architecture strategies: 1. Passive Sustainable Design:Passive strategies such as considering sun orientation and climate when sitting and being thoughtful about window placement and operation are used to manage day lighting and natural ventilation and go a long way in reducing energy requirements for the building. In certain climates, thermal mass techniques can be used to harness solar energy. In such cases, thick walls absorb heat from the sun during the day and release it into the building at night.2. Active Sustainable Design:Architects consult with mechanical and electrical engineers to implement high-efficiency electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other systems, which are designed to have small environmental footprints.3. Renewable Energy Systems:Renewable energy systems, including those that harness solar and wind energy, are also great options for some buildings. These systems are often used in conjunction with passive design strategies.4. Green Building Materials and Finishes:By making it a priority to purchase steel, lumber, concrete, and finishing materials, such as carpet and furnishings, from companies that use environmentally responsible manufacturing techniques or recycled materials, architects up the ante on sustainability.5. Native Landscaping:Landscaping choices can make an impact on civic building water consumption. By using trees, plants, and grasses that are native to the area, architects can greatly reduce irrigation needs. Landscaping can also be used as part of a passive energy strategy. By planting trees that shade the roof and windows during the hottest time of the day, solar heat gain inside the building can be reduced. What is the need for sustainable architecture? Architecture is an essential arena for sustainable innovation Beyond the standard low-carbon technologies and the smart urban cooling systems, sustainable architecture in cities has also started to weave natural green spaces into its designs. With cities constantly growing, and the prediction that 70% of the global population will be urban by 2050, the need for greenery is greater than ever. Regular access to nature is proven to have quantifiable benefits for mental and physical health, and to improve quality of life. How do you become a sustainable architecture?If you’re planning a career in green architecture, you will first need a professional degree in architecture, either at the bachelor’s or master’s degree level. What education do you need to be a sustainable architecture?Sustainable architecture is the focus on architectural development that minimizes damage or impact on the environment. Professionals in this field typically have a bachelor’s degree in architecture, although a master’s degree may be required for advancement. Conclusion:More and more sustainable architecture strategies are being implemented, in public building designs. Cost is always a top consideration for civic building planners, keep in mind that spending more up-front on sustainable strategies can not only provide savings over time but also positively impact air quality, well-being and lead to a regenerative future. Modern architects are the future of sustainability through or architecture education system we can get the best architects, who will go to provide a sustainable life for everyone. APCOA Pune provides the best course in Architecture, more details you can visit https://apcoapune.org/

Introduction When scheming any space or room, we artistically work to remind a particular emotion and concept. It is a similar practice a painter follows. He begins with inspiration or ideas he would like to express. He creates this into a beautiful concept and then shades that striking piece we see in the museum. That’s how Interior design also works.  Interior designers use the same rulebooks as art. It is important to remember that there’s no correct or incorrect option. Space needs to be purposeful. It must function at its end. But basically, what makes one room “lovely” and another “unpleasant” is just a judgment. A room space will appear great to some and perhaps only “average” to others. It is more of a personal choice. Envision putting 1000 pieces of the puzzle – individual tile is white with no picture to position or refer. Your job is to solve the puzzle through an idea from someone else’s sense. Where would you twitch? Would you begin from the edge to frame the room? Or possibly from the middle to work your manner out? Would you attempt to find some design in the information and pieces you were assumed? When renovating or modifying a new place, the daunting issue for any developer/owner is where to begin. Some companies create an interior design component table to help benefit their clients through the renovation. The table, practiced in conjunction with customer interviews, offers a higher level of satisfaction and comfort. Many Commercial Interior Designers function with Architects to give the expertise and knowledge that complement and perfect the overall creation. They also work with viable customers when there’s no necessity for a Designer. We are in a time where ancient structures are major real-estate for office spaces, loft hotels and apartments. With buildings already in the area, designers provide a great vision into potentials for unique places. Upcycling is now one of the protruding trends in the ecosphere of interior architecting. When you view a plan, you need to know what kind of area it will be, the style the developer/owner imagines and how the room needs to work as a complete. How can we eliminate a dysfunctional area and build it for the innovative age workplace appealing to younger people? How can we integrate private spaces varied within an open workplace, break areas and collaboration space? Here are various fundamentals of design that you need to explore and frame together to form both functionally and aesthetically. If we are scheming an office area, we concentrate on adjacencies, future headcount, workflow and ethos. You need to concentrate on the complete flow and layout of the infrastructure, soft spaces, trends, wellness, and marking for loft hotels or apartments. Companies that struggle to draw and retain new, possibly, younger people need to move the spotlight to trends, culture, employee engagement, branding, wellness and movable working milieus. Solving a puzzle or building a pleasing and functional space for the inhabitants is colored on the cool carpet and walls. Interior Design is a discipline, and the feature table helps benefit us to a fruitful development. You should take that simple white puzzle and carry the client’s vision and dream to life. Though that is also the magnificence of interior designing—it gives each individual the capability to be exceptional. Because each space can be wholly different, you are recognized as who you are and aware of how you need. Every design is as exclusive as your distinct personality. Science in Interior Designing That is believed, it is correct that there are very scientific features of interior architecting. Certain features are based on math, for example. These can become extraordinarily practical. Room dimensions, color balance and geometry, can be very precise. If you are not capable of these basic notions, it can be tough to attain the feel and look you want in a place. There are instructions in interior design, but they can never be monitored for their good. They are just the track we take to reach the goal. They are tools you use to build the result we are considering for. Taking an example as geometry. You do not want all in your place to be accepted, right angles as it has the drive to look too harsh and edgy. Another instance is space and scale planning—combining stuff into a specific space. It is imperative to contemplate the measurement of draperies and furnishings to confirm the area’s complete design looks comparative. These are opening features you have to study when scheming an area—the “science” of interior architecture. Another pattern is lighting. Occasionally, the color specs in an area are overly “casual.” Simply altering the bulbs to incandescent bulbs (GE Reveal lights) will make changes in the manner you notice the color heat feature of the décor and furnishings in the space. The Refining Feel of Art These are primary elements. They are real. They are logical. You have to distinguish them well to reach the result you are seeking. Though, outside of all, outlining space is an individual approach—it is art. And that is significant for everyone to recall. The design is magnificent. Magnificence is art. Art is belief. And your opinion should be distinct. And that is a delightful thing—as that lets you show your exceptional individuality and personality.
