Montessori School Design Architect in Mumbai, Maharashtra
Play is the highest form of learning
|
A child is thoroughly fascinated by his surroundings. Right from birth, a child tries to comprehend and absorb every little detail of the world around him. How exactly does he or she try to do this? If you leave an infant or a toddler on his own in a safe space and observe from a distance, you will notice that he engages all his senses and performs all types of plausible physical movements to understand, explore, and move around the space. For young children, sensorial exploration is a primary means of communication with their environment.

How to Setup a Montessori Home Environment
|
A home is a very personal space for anyone. It can be designed and create to rejuvenate one in multiple ways, but for children it is the first place where they start learning from the time they are born. So as educational architect, I feel if we can design Montessori Environment at home from the very beginning of a child’s life then we can see tremendous cognitive and physiological growth of a child. This conducive environment can help a child from every early on to explore, engage and belong. The Montessori philosophy beautifully captures this idea and emphasizes the design of spaces which allow for natural development.

15 TED Talks about Education
|
Sir Ken Robinson has delivered absolutely sharp, distinct, and thought-provoking views on how the conventional teaching methods often crush the creativity spark of children. In his signature witty humour, he talks about the courage and creativity every child is born with and how a child is never afraid to try, experiment and take a chance.

How Bioclimatic Design strategies can help in safeguarding our own future
|
The United Nations has expected the world’s urban population to reach 68% by 2050[1], a fact that corroborates exponential developmental growth around the globe. As the construction sector expands rapidly, the level of carbon dioxide emissions and global temperature also rises simultaneously, leaving us exposed to the threats of climatic change and catastrophic natural disasters. Globally, the construction of buildings demands 34% energy resources and contributes to 37% of carbon dioxide emissions – quite an eye-opening statistic[2]. We, at Atelier ARBO, believe in creating spaces that react positively with the environment and therefore would like to share our views on ‘Bioclimatic Architecture.’

Creating a Sustainable Future: How Green Roofing Systems can be a Wise Choice
|
The prospect of jobs, stability, and a better lifestyle attract hordes of people to cities, making urbanization inevitable on a global scale. Vast open lands and forests keep transforming into concrete jungles to house the growing population. The alarming concern, amidst all this, is the decreasing green cover and a very serious threat to the sanctity of the environment. Occupying 31% of the world’s land surface, forests and grasslands help in abating global warming and climate change, but deforestation, done for construction and development reasons, has led to a significant reduction in the green cover.

How to Design Home Libraries: A fresh Perspective
|
Home libraries, cozy reading corners, and elegant bookshelves add a feeling of warmth and tranquility to a house. Every home has the potential to allocate and display a well-designed, organized book library that is easily accessible and aesthetically pleasing. The daunting process of planning a home library often discourages homeowners from creating a unique reading arena, with a readymade bookshelf becoming the ultimate solution. Although a readymade bookshelf solves the functionality quotient, it lacks the aesthetic feel and aura of a personal and elegant home library space.
