New Shillong

A city-scale framework supported by proposals for housing, mobility, work and recreation. The portfolio follows the work from the road and landscape structure into individual buildings and residential typologies.

The urban framework

Land use and movement studies establish the structure for new development.

The boulevard

A continuous landscape connects stepped public spaces, planting and movement along the boulevard.

Affordable housing

The proposal groups compact homes within a planted residential setting.

Residential typologies

Simplex and duplex studies develop the relationship between individual homes, circulation and shared space.

Premium housing

A separate housing study organises larger residences around courts and the hillside landscape.

Prime Hub

The incubation hub combines a low horizontal building with a vertical marker, set into the sloping site.

Prime Hub planning

Workspaces and shared facilities surround internal open space.

Prime Hub extension

The extension study adds a pair of taller volumes connected by a shared lower building.

The bus terminal

A broad shelter and a vertical landmark give the transport interchange a civic presence.

Terminal organisation

Stacked programmes and the site section separate movement and support functions within the sloping terrain.

The sports tower

A compact vertical arrangement brings recreation into a small footprint.
