BSc in Interior Design, Bangalore
Tisha K. Jain is a BSc Interior Design & Decoration student at JD School of Design, Bangalore, and won the JD Design Award in the category of Best Design Solution, for her project titled Container Conundrum: The Green Studio Mystery. She has employed several innovative concepts for reuse, from windows-turned-walls to smart solar control systems, showing enormous commitment towards sustainable construction and interior design practices. Her work epitomizes a daredevil and experimental furniture design approach, breaking all traditional methods and ushering in the new look of contemporariness.
In her award-winning project titled “Container Conundrum: In the Story “The Green Studio Mystery,” Tisha gets busy thinking about a new direction in the creation of future fiction through the innovative idea to redesign the studio environment. Gladly, she takes the opportunities that shipping containers offer and gives the idea—the solution for the density of urban spaces and for sustainability as well. The project aims at providing a studio environment that is adequate to the growing trend of creatives, influencers, and other content providers. By strategically designing the layout of each space, the necessary form of ventilation, vertical space for storage, and common area are all successfully incorporated into the small size of shipping containers.
The design solutions she prefers underline attempts to minimise expenses: heat-proof paints and various content creation setups help to organise the space efficiently. Tisha’s concern with sustainability includes the integration of such elements as roof gardens and existing vegetation to balance it with hi-tech architecture. This project reshapes the traditional layouts for the studios, and at the same time, it becomes an organised and innovative approach to designing and sustainable thinking for the future.
Tisha’s idea derives its inspiration from the Mumbai chawls and their execution, which seems quite appropriate with the current paradigm transition in the urban neighbourhoods’ design density, especially within the Indian context. Tisha introduces a feasible and innovative concept that includes shipping containers to provide furniture for today’s effective and alternating lifestyles, addressing major problems such as flexibility and too much production of waste. Tisha has chosen Container Conundrum: Explaining the Choice of the Green Studio Mystery as the winning project for the JD Design Award for Best Design Solution because of its focus on studio design.
Tisha is one of those people who has a passion for innovation and high attention to detail, as seen in her mood board, where she has provided ideas for multiple uses for furniture and vibrant colors to enliven the studio. In this design project, Tisha ventures to reconsider the notion of the future of many studio layouts, where it is not a mere functional space but a motivating and empowering environment for future leaders and visionaries.
