IT PARK, Vadodara, Gujrat

Sarvajanik College Of Engineering and Technology(SCET), Faculty Of Architecture, , Surat, Gujarat

Project idea

Couple of decades ago, when IT sector took a boom, the department of planning and development was initiating the proposal for development of an IT hub for Gujarat and the desired location came to be Vadodara as it is located at a similarly equal distance from Surat and Ahmedabad two major cities of Gujarat. The location also includes major important landmarks such as L&T, Airport and universities, along with a good road network coming from NH-08 The DMIC corridor.

Project description

It is located in eastern part of Vadodara connected to three major road network of the city. Nearly 35% of site has developed infrastructure and 20% is covered by roads rest is vast patches of unused land.As you can grasp in the masterplan that the concept for zoning has quite an attention to the IT offices (Blue hatch) at the center surrounded by administration buildings (red hatch) for quick functioning. Rest all is provided as mixed use as a public exploration and recreational zone fuses with the residential to have an active lifestyle. The road ring (brown road) acts as a major ring road connecting to the substations in order to fulfil the last mile connectivity. Referring the sections, one will understand about the roads that are further divided for NMT for better interaction, traffic division and active lifestyle.As you can grasp in the masterplan that the concept for zoning has quite an attention to the IT offices (Blue hatch) at the centre surrounded by administration buildings (red hatch) for quick functioning.

Technical information

Referring the sections, one will understand about the roads that are further divided for NMT for better interaction, traffic division and active lifestyle.
There were certain pockets that are specifically given along the road networks to provide green cover balancing the visual dimension of the site. The green cover covers 40% of the area.
Thereby one will wonder what holds the wavy landscape! It's a spine developed cutting through the central zones of IT hub to provide a continuous spine of green cover and creating a productive architecture that cut the boring aspect of an industrious looking IT hub thereby creating a visual as well as healthy appeal for the humans around.
