These type of growth also changed the shape, structure and function of the built or unbuilt area of an urban city. Moreover, the population increases cause our farmer to run out of land. The amount of arable Land per person decreased from about an acre in 2000 to roughly half an acre in 2015 and is projected to decline to about a third of an acre by 2050. Now a days the problems we are competing with only be handle to deal with it by technology. By changing the identity of space it could give you feedback in different terms like specific contextual needs and its reaction towards the environment. The strategy for this purpose increased in the framework of productivity with the source of food and reduced the horizontal footprints. The vertical growth of green spaces allows to become the essential component of different system like, energy, water and waste, and positive symbol to give the sustainable life.Item An Interstitial Space(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2016) Syed Muhammad Noor Ud Duha; FA11-BAR-026; Ar. Amna Naveed; LHR TP 4511An Interstitial Space” explores the significance of transitional and in-between spaces within the built environment, often overlooked yet essential in shaping human experience. These spaces—such as corridors, thresholds, courtyards, and voids—serve as connectors between primary functions, enabling movement, interaction, and moments of pause. The study examines how interstitial spaces can be reimagined as active, meaningful zones that foster social engagement, sensory experiences, and spatial continuity. By integrating light, materiality, and scale, the project highlights the potential of these spaces to enhance functionality, create identity, and enrich the overall architectural narrative.Item sychological Cognition(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2016) Syed Asmar Ul Hassan,; FA11-BAR-044; Ar. Meekal Chughtai,; lhr tp 4524Psychological Cognition refers to the mental processes involved in acquiring, processing, storing, and using information. It encompasses functions such as perception, attention, memory, language, problem-solving, and decision-making. This study explores how individuals interpret and respond to their environment through cognitive mechanisms, influenced by both internal factors (such as emotions and prior knowledge) and external stimuli. Understanding cognition is essential for analyzing human behavior, improving learning processes, and addressing mental health challenges. The research also highlights applications of cognitive principles in education, design, and everyday decision-making.Item Sialkoot Business Hub(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2016) Qasim Mahmood Mirza,; FA11-BAR-027; Ar.

Rooted in historical, colonial, and cultural influences, colorism continues to shape perceptions of beauty and worth. This research highlights the psychological, social, and economic impacts of such discrimination and emphasizes the need for awareness, media responsibility, and inclusive narratives to challenge and dismantle color-based prejudice.Item WOMEN’S OPPORTUNITY & TECHNICAL TRAINING CENTER(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) Iman Iqbal; FA16-BAR-032; Shazia Hanif; LHR TP 7081This thesis begins by highlighting the problems of gender exclusion from public space. Public space here is defined as the medium of all social constructions and economic generation. The thesis takes a gender specific perspective with the intension to deconstruct the problems women face as a collective within our society. I started by observing the conditions that public space within Pakistan nurtures; how it harbors hostile environments for women. With that in mind it is imperative to shed light to how these spaces construct, reconstruct and internalize discriminatory roles. It adopts the principle that the access citizens have to space is directly related to immediate social structure.(Favro & Weisman, 1994) Unequal participation and exclusion of women as legitimate stakeholders within our environment limits the prosperity of women within our country. The situation continues to perpetuate adding to the demotivating forces normalizing inequitable practices. Our spaces overlook the concerns of women entering into the public sphere. The divisions of gender actively segregates our population, our cities, it constructs suburban dwellings that look at women as transfixed, child bearing entities alienating them to a dormant unpaid labor lifecycle. (Hayden, 1985) . The context of this thesis is the industrial landscape of Sundar Estate. Research was conducted to understand the extent of gender inequality within the estate, extrapolating the contributing factors and linking the disparity to the role of the lack of gender sensitive infrastructure in setting circumstances that not only allow but set conditions for spatial territories to conduct continuous infringement of rights within the industrial landscape. Acknowledging that urban spatial practice to this day proves itself to be non- gender neutral and due to this they have failed to cater to the needs of women and gender-centric marginalized individuals alike, a gender gap on planning exists. (Sassen, 2015) The thesis then suggests (i) how design strategies and principles can facilitate women accessing public space counteracting the opposing patriarchal forces. The thesis hopes to directly contribute to (ii) recognizing the role of design in actively generating gender-inclusive spaces. The goal is to (iii) enhancing and reintroducing the role and participation of women as occupiers, citizens, worthy inhabitants, exercising their full rights to the city. (iv) It hopes to establish design strategies that can bridge the social gap and reconstruct social norms that has been a major player in the marginalization, obstruction of performance and lack of presence of women in our the socioeconomic sphere.
