B.Arch Architecture Design Juries 2026 ✨ A look back at the B.Arch Design and Thesis Juries for the Even Semester of 2026. The studio reviews brought together external practitioners and experts to evaluate, discuss, and guide our students’ work. From foundational studio projects to final-year graduation thesis presentations, the reviews highlighted a diverse range of design thinking, research, and practical approaches. Through detailed physical models, architectural drawings, and presentations, the students focused on context-sensitive design, empathy, and hands-on problem-solving. We appreciate our external jurors—including Madhu Pandit (BARGAD DESIGN, New Delhi), Savita Punde (Design Cell, Gurugram), Naresh Sivakoti (ECOSCULP), Bhavana Kasaraneni (Merakitects), Harin Charakam (Imbyzmo Consulting), and visiting experts—for their detailed critiques, mentorship, and industry perspectives.

Abstraction as Inquiry: Reimagining Proportion in Architectural Learning

This book documents an exploratory exercise undertaken by 2nd semester B.Arch students at the GITAM School of Architecture, Visakhapatnam. Emerging from the course Theory of Architecture, the exercise rethinks how we engage with proportion and scale in the Indian context, not as fixed rules, but as relationships between space, structure, culture, and meaning.

Through observation, analysis, and abstraction, students translated historic architectural works into abstract visual compositions that capture their underlying essence rather than their literal form. What makes this particularly meaningful is the shift in pedagogy it represents—from learning architecture as information to experiencing it as inquiry and interpretation.

At GITAM School of Architecture (GSA), Vizag, this connection between education and practice is at the core of everything.

Recognised as one of India’s leading architecture schools, GITAM School of Architecture is committed to shaping the future of architecture. Its student-centric learning culture focuses on integrating education with practice, ensuring graduates are well-equipped for the profession.

At GSA, learning extends beyond the studio. The campus supports a balanced and productive student life with well-planned facilities—student dining spaces, sports infrastructure and gym for holistic development, and well-equipped student residences that make everyday living comfortable.

Knowledge Resource Center supports research and learning, while the café encourages collaboration. The 2-credit Venture Development Course builds interdisciplinary thinking.

All of this creates an environment where students don’t just study architecture—they experience it, practice it, and grow with it.

This is why GSA is not just a place to study architecture, but the right place to live it.

First-year students begin their design journey by understanding the communities and their contexts. For this regional study, students travelled to the villages of Uppada, Etikoppaka, Budithi, and Dasannapeta, where they spent time with artisans and witnessed craft-making processes.

Watching the artists at work, listening to their stories, and observing the spaces where they live and create helped students experience how livelihood, tradition, and space are deeply intertwined. These encounters were curated to show them that design is not just a form-making exercise, but a compassionate practice—one that grows from empathy, respect, and a genuine understanding of the people for whom spaces are created.

Why study architecture in Vizag?
In Vizag, every corner feels like a lesson. The hills and coastline show how nature shapes design. Heritage homes hold stories of the past. Festivals fill the streets with color, culture, and movement. The Navy, the Industry teach us how cities grow with purpose. And in the open parks, beaches, and public spaces, you see how people truly connect with a place. Here, architecture isn’t just something you study — it’s something you observe, question, experience and live every day. Because in Vizag, the city itself becomes your studio.

So come to this city of destiny—give wings to your dreams, and let your journey as a designer truly begin.
