    Castle in clouds
    (University of Management and Technology Lahore, 2017) Majeed, Ammara
    In this era of chaos, unemployment, inflation what should be the role of an architecture student? It is never too hard to bring light, color and play in the buildings we design but that is not the only thing we need to do. What we all need to do is to create something that brings attachment, bondage and emotions with the architecture. It should not just give employment but should be a new charming activity that would motivate, relax, encourage the youth to think beyond reality and come up with new creative ideas. Pakistan needs to create architectural attractions. The only thing we lack is the forum for recreational activities. It not only creates revenues but also gets fame if it is of an international standard. We living in Pakistan soul totally promote our culture. But we also need to bring new ideas regarding architecture to start working in a new direction on which the whole world is moving. Every country has theme parks for which they are famous. The culture of theme parks should also be promoted in Pakistan because we do not have a single proper theme park. The theme park industry around the world is growing day by day. So we need to step up and move in the league of finding fun in architecture as designers. This thesis explores the possibility of designing a Disneyland park, where people can relax and enjoy the themes, which is being evolved from mythical stories of Disney movies. Moving through an environment is a visual, spatial, sequential experience. Architectural determinism is a theory which claims that built environment is a theory which claims that the built environment is the chief determinant if social behavior. It says that design can control behavior, that architecture can limit and channel behavior in a predictable manner, supported by Adolf Behne when he asserted“you can kill a man with a building just as easily as with an axe

    Centre for juvenile delinquents
    (University of Management and Technology Lahore, 2017) Haider Ali
    Criminal behavior in juveniles is hard to describe using a definition. Since no agreed definition can be found. But the anti-social acts and behavior of youngsters is often regarded as juvenile delinquency. Adulthood starts from 18 years of age and above, a person who commits a crime and is of or under 18 years of age is termed as a juvenile delinquent. Over centuries, the role of a prison has been that of a dark dungeon, implementing cruel punishments. This has not only made the crime graph go higher but has also destroyed countless lives. This report focuses on rehabilitation through architecture, employing environmental psychology and corrections through humane treatment of the prisoners while not compromising on security. Further, presents an insight in the conditions that prevail, and the number of juvenile prisons in Punjab, Pakistan. The data provides a detailed insight to the facilities provided, design patterns, security and counselling in the juvenile prisons. It further provides a proposed design for a juvenile prison to be built in Lahore, Pakistan. Juvenile schools or prisons lack in number in our country as compared to the crime ratio and they are important as the common incarceration of adults and juveniles together can lead to a greater chance of negative influence on the minors. Punjab has the highest percentage of juvenile offenders in the country and still there is not a single court dedicated exclusively to juvenile cases. Furthermore, there are only 2 juvenile prisons in Punjab which are long-standing and are least suitable for such facilities.

    “Proposed construction of trade centre for tdap at Faisalabad, Pakistan”
    (University of Management and Technology Lahore, 2017) Hasnain Ali, Syed
    Design of a high-rise office building or trade centre, like any engineering design, is a complex multidisciplinary process with the objective to discover, detail and construct a system to fulfill a given set of performance requirements. The office building is one of the great icons of the twentieth century. Office towers dominate the skylines of cities in every continent. As the most visible index of economic activity, of social, technological, and financial progress, they have come to symbolize much of what this century has been about. To accomplish this impact, the buildings must benefit from an integrated design approach that focuses on meeting a list of objectives. Through integrated design, a new generation of high-performance office buildings is beginning to emerge that offers owners and users increased worker satisfaction and productivity, improved health, greater flexibility, and enhanced energy and environmental performance. Typically, these projects apply life-cycle analysis to optimize initial investments in architectural design, systems selection, and building construction.
