Philosophy

 In the operational realities, if an attempt is made to highlight the ideological postures


leading to the directions of value as accepted in all design-decisions resulting into
tangible architectural ambient, the efforts are also directed towards creating a
preference in the public mind for consumption of good design in their day to day
living.
 The immediate surroundings is  source of construction materials; snow, stone, straw,
reed, wood or mud is the indigenous materials for constructing an enclosure.
 The relationship between human being and the building being established, what
develops and grows around becomes a measure for man and his society.
 There is a place for everything and everything has its place.
 Spatial configuration in his design is an attempt to invoke a spirit that will establish a
symbiotic bond between the present and the past.
 FORM : Realization of shelter form and its content are in response to a given place,
climate, and time.
 AESTHETICS: It is the aesthetics of openness contrasted with enclosures that
highlights the different features from the rest of the façade.

Conclusion :

Uttam C. Jain is one of the great contemporary architect of India . After studying his projects
we understand his philosophy that “ The relationship between human being and the building
being established, what develops and grows around becomes a measure for man and his
society” . His project shows lots of good architectural solutions and their implications in
Indian climate and behaviors. The use of arches , vaults , domes , squinched , pillars , cutouts
in facades , courtyards , pergolas etc are the major elements of his design. His designs are
mere a excellent response the site and surroundings. The Jodhpur university is one of his
great works indeed . He has come up with a excellent solutions of the climate and space
behavior. The stepped roofs , the sitting patterns , the use of stones , the use of cutouts for
ventilation are his major features in it . Use of local materials with a good mixtures of modern
technology make his building a completely excellent response . In the operational realities, if
an attempt is made to highlight the ideological postures leading to the directions of value as
accepted in all design-decisions resulting into tangible architectural ambient, the efforts are
also directed towards creating a preference in the public mind for consumption of good
design in their day to day living. A doctor buries his mistake and an architect builds his
mistake. There are individuals who fail to understand what good architecture is all about. But
U.C.Jain feels that, architecture begins after you put up four walls and a roof and that is what
he call the non-manifest part. Architecture is like music. You can feel it but not see it. You
have to comprehend and appreciate architecture. Architecture provides us with our basic
biological needs but actually its realms go much further than that. His sense of creativity
stems from what he add from his mind. There are the 3 ‘P’s of architecture, namely, the
personality of the architect, the product and the place. These have to be in synergy.
