This is a portfolio by Samip Shahi, an architecture undergraduate student, presenting selected work from 2022 to 2026. It is aimed at potential employers, studios, or academic reviewers who want to see the range of his design and visual art output.
The document opens with a personal introduction and a resume section. It lists his education, including a Bachelor of Architecture at Pulchowk Campus in Lalitpur, and earlier schooling in Rupandehi, Nepal. It also covers his languages, photography and cinematography interests, and freelance realism work in graphite.
A software and experience section follows, detailing his proficiency in tools like Autodesk AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, Rhino, D5, Enscape, and the Adobe Creative Suite. It also mentions his roles as Joint Secretary and Graphics & Media Head at ASA, along with awards in model making and live art competitions.
The main body of the portfolio is organized into five projects: The Silent Vessel, Zeno, Square Interlace, Serene Studio, and Miscellaneous. The first project, The Silent Vessel, is a fermentation pavilion from a 6th semester design studio, exploring concepts of Neo-Functionalism and high-tech architecture inspired by Richard Rogers.
The Silent Vessel section explains the design concept of expressing structure and services openly, with a radial layout and an exposed central void. It includes an exploded axonometric view and discusses the idea of compression and release within the building's massing.
