                    Topic Title: City Hub: Commercial Complex with Office Spaces

                    Supervisor: Prof. Pavithra

                    Synopsis

                     This thesis project proposes a novel mixed-use building concept that integrates a vibrant shopping
                     mall  with  contemporary office spaces.  This  innovative  design  aims  to  dismantle  the  barriers  of
                     traditional, isolated work environments and foster a healthy work-life balance for occupants.
                     The design prioritizes user experience, offering office workers convenient access to retail, dining,
                     and entertainment options within the complex. This reduces commute times, promotes work-life
                     balance, and cultivates a sense of community. Sustainable practices will be incorporated throughout,
                     including natural daylighting, rainwater harvesting, and energy-efficient materials.
                     For the neighborhood, the project acts as a catalyst for recreation. It boosts economic activity, creates
                     new  job  opportunities,  and  provides  much-needed  retail  and  recreational  amenities.  The  design
                     incorporates public green spaces and pedestrian walkways, enhancing the overall livability of the
                     area. This mixed-use development in Manapakkam strives to be a model for sustainable, user-centric
                     urban design in Chennai's developing IT corridor.
