stunning architectural works:5


Frederick C Hamilton Building:



Frederick C. Hamilton was designed by architect Daniel Liebeskind, and the design actually resembles the beautiful peaks of the Rocky Mountains, and of all kinds of geometric rock formations so specific to Denver’s geology. Then, the entire building was covered by huge titanium panels, which according to the designer himself, “reflect the Colorado sunshine”.

ADVANTAGES OF NATA COACHING THROUGH INTERNET:

ADVANTAGES  OF NATA COACHING THROUGH INTERNET:

NATA(NATIONAL APTITUDE TEST IN ARCHITECTURE),IS ONE THE NATIONAL LEVEL EXAM   FOR B.ARCH CONDUCTED BY COUNCIL OF ARCHITECTURE(COA).
STUDENTS WHO OPT TO GIVE THIS EXAM MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN DRAWING  OR CREATING SOMETHING NEW,DESIGNING ETC.
MANY STUDENTS MIGHT HAVE SOME UNIQUE IDEAS,HIGH THINKING ABILITY, THOUGH THEY HAVE GOOD IDEOLOGY,THEY EVEN NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PRESENT THEIR IDEAS.
PRESENTATION IS ONE OF THE MAIN WEAPON, WHICH EVERY ONE NEEDS.

THOUGH YOU HAVE A SIMPLE IDEA,YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO PRESENT IT IN SUCH A WAY THAT OTHERS SHOULD GET IMPRESSED SEEING IT.

 ALL YOU NEED FOR THIS IS,SOME ONE TO GUIDE YOU,TO JUST POLISH YOU.
I BEING A STUDENT OF B.ARCH,KNOW VERY WELL ABOUT THE PROBLEMS WHAT STUDENTS   FACE DURING THEIR NATA EXAMINATION.

THING WHICH STUDENTS SHOULD POSSESS:
1)SELF CONFIDENCE,
2) SHOULD HAVE IDEA ABOUT BASIC THINGS(EG: HUMANS,BUILDINGS,ENVIRONMENT ETC)
3) SHOULD KNOW PRESENTABLE TECHNIQUES (LIKE SHADING,RENDERINGS).
4)SHOULD KNOW HOW TO GIVE LIFE TO THE DRAWINGS.
5)FASTNESS IN UNDERSTANDING QUESTION AND DRAWING.
THESE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS WHICH A STUDENT SHOULD POSSESS WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO GIVE NATA.

ALL THESE THINGS ARE THE MAIN OBJECTIVES OF OUR COACHING.


WELL,I WOULD LIKE TO EXPLAIN YOU ADVANTAGES OF MY COACHING:
1)FIRSTLY,YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEM OF TRANSPORTATION.
2)YOU CAN TAKE COACHING AT YOUR CONVENIENT TIMINGS.(NO NEED OF ANY WEB CAMS)
3)HERE,IN MY COACHING I NOT ONLY SEND YOU MAILS EXPLAINING IN A CONCEPTUAL MANNER , ALSO STUDENTS WILL BE ASSIGNED WITH DAILY ASSIGNMENTS.
WE GIVE THEM ASSIGNMENTS BECAUSE,DRAWING COMES ONLY WHEN YOU PRACTICE.
4)WE DONT ASK THEM TO DRAW SOMETHING DIRECTLY,WE FIRST TEACH THEM BASICS,GIVE THEM A NICE FOUNDATION,PROVIDE THEM ALL THE NEEDED THINGS THAT THEY HAVE TO KNOW BEFORE THEY WANT TO PRESENT A DRAWING.
5) PARENTS CAN COME TO THEIR CHILDREN'S DAILY PROGRESS,BY SEEING THE ASSIGNMENTS DONE BY THEM.

6) WE WOULD EVEN SEND VIDEOS ON IMPORTANT TOPICS.
7) WE CLARIFY THEIR DOUBTS,THROUGH MAILS AND EVEN THROUGH VIDEOS, SEPARATELY FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL STUDENT.
8) WE CONDUCT 3 NATA PRE-LEVEL EXAMS,BEFORE THEY GONNA GIVE THEIR NATA FINAL EXAM.
THE MAILS WHICH I SEND,MOSTLY WOULD BE OF HANDWRITTEN AND EVEN WITH RELATED IMAGES ATTACHED TO IT(PICTURES WILL MAKE THEM COME TO KNOW WHAT EXACTLY I AM TEACHING THEM,AND HOW TO DO THEM).


AND THOUGH THE COACHING IS THROUGH INTERNET WE DONT CHARGE YOU MUCH,OUR COACHING WILL BE AT AN AFFORDABLE  PRICE.


I WILL MAKE SURE THAT,I WILL NEVER DISAPPOINT STUDENTS AND PARENTS IN ANY ASPECTS.


                          THANKYOU

4. Denver Art Museum – Denver, USA:


building of this beautiful museum started as early as 1948 when designer Burnham Hoyt, (after a huge restorative process) designed the structure which was known as the Schleier Gallery.
Throughout the years, several expansions have been made to the original buildings, since the museum needed more and more space to accommodate its treasures. Two of the most famous additions are the Frederick C. Hamilton Building and the North Building.

STUNNING WORKS OF ARCHITECTURE:BUILDING 1


Beautiful buildings can certainly inspire, with people willing to travel thousands of miles to discover the masterpieces of famous architects.
Whilst some architects like to adhere to the traditional lines and trends in the field of architecture, others simply love to experiment and leave a personal trace throughout their creations.
By allowing their creativeness and passion to flow freely, architects have been able to create wonderful structures that bring in front of people edifices that inspire awe and true admiration.
The Infosys Headquarters in Pune, India is a beautiful high-tech building. The entire structure actually looks like a descending spacecraft, and this illusion is mainly created by its shape technology: an ellipsoid structure with a tilted angle at approximately 10 degrees.
The building was the first occupant of the IT Park called “Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park”. Within this park, there are currently approximately 20 software company headquarters, among others names like Mindtree, Tata Technologies, Tech Machindra and CISCO.
The Infosys building definitely stands out from all the others, and it is dubbed as being one of the most innovative and beautifully designed structures in Pune area. The giant “spaceship” style futuristic building was constructed based on the designs of architect Hafeez Contractor, a highly respected Indian architect known lately for his involvement in “green” architecture designs.
The Infosys building has 5 stories and it is made of a combination of steel, glass and aluminum.
