1.2 BACKGROUND.
Situated on the coastline of Valsad, Daman(a union territory)is divided into two
areas, Moti Daman, Split by the Damanganaga River .After the Portuguese
successfully infiltrated Goa, they searched for a coastal territory in Gujarat to
conduct trade. They landed in Daman, and 1531, the Guajrat Sultan agreed to hand
the territory over to the Europeun power in exchange for a share in their customs
revenue. The port thrived in trade and was more important than Diu for the
Portuguese. Daman became part of the Indian Union in 1961.
The town is worth a day trip if you are interested in seeing the ligering
influences of Portuguese colonialism, especially in moti daman. The beaches
hoewer, are far from paradise and often packed with drunken local tourists who flock
to this popular drinking destination. Of the two former Portuguese territories touching
Gujarat, Diu is no doubt the more attractive destination.
The imposing Moti Daman Fort was built from 1559-93 over an area once
occupied ny a small Muslim citadel. It spreads over three hectares in a polygonal
layout. Just outside the fort is Church of our Lady of the Remedies, built at the
beginning of the 17th c. Although outwardly simple, the interior is stunning with
golden cherubs, rose petals and excellent woodwork. The Badrapore District retains
a Portuguese influence in its winding lanes ans small house

1.3 INTRODUCTION.
.1 WHAT IS RESORT
Resort is a place to spent holiday for relaxation and recreation so that, one
can give dynamism to their leisure time. Oxford¶ s dictionary defines resort as place
that is frequented for holidays or recreation or for a particular purpose. One can go
and swim in resort, can have lunch, can go just to pass time, plan an overnight stay
and lit campfire, artist can complete their portrait ,novelist can finish novel, a poet
can create his poem and tourist can have charming stay there .A resort can function
as a conference centre, as a meeting centre, as a banquette, as a restaurant, as a
health club and various other functions. A resort could be day serving and night
serving, and it provides the cuisine service. According to the new definition, µA
resort is a full-service lodging facility that provides access to or offers a range of
amenities and recreation facilities to emphasize a leisure experience .Resorts serve
as the primary provider of the guests¶ experience, often provide services
for business and meetings, and are characteristically located in vacation-oriented
settings¶
.If we go through the history of resort, it dates back to Roman era where. Therme
serves multifunctional recreation activity and most popular among this is Baiae.
There may be numerous form of resort like,
a) Sports Resort
b) Adventure Resort
c) Nature Resort
d) Eco Resort
e) Agro- Resort
Health Resort However, the purpose is same, that they all serve people and
among them majority is foreign tourist. Resort being discussed here is self-
contained one, and another form of resort could be resort town where facilities are
dispersed with in a small town or area. So, if we go through the structural formation
of resort then there are two types of resort;1.
Self contained of integrated resort A modern form of resort where one can
have all the resort facilities within a boundary .All the functions are incorporated but
the scope of resort may vary as we have discussed above, like a resort focusing on
sports may not concern in health facilities, like wise wildlife safari resort may not
pays attention to mountaineering. But, it is true that resort is self contained units,
where it is possible to have as much facilities as a dweller needs. There are very
few amount of self-contained resort in Nepal, thus, this project will focus on
designing full self-contained resort.2.
Resort town :It is often understood as a traditional form of resort but this type
carries essence of resort where functions and facilities are scattered in a small town,
which focuses on tourism as its primary occupation. For example, Ghale Gaun,
Ghandruk etc are resort town. A resort town may be self developed like Helambu in
Sindhupalchowk, Namchein Solukhumbu or may be planned which is not found in
Page 4
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
nepal. Resort can be classified into several categories and have guidelines to rate
them, but according to service provided by them, it could be day resort with
recreational facilities like, spa, sports ,sauna, health and cuisine facilities with
several restaurant, bars, and various other amenities.
1.4STRUCTURE OF A RESORT
SEASIDE RESORTS
Seaside resorts are developed along the sea cost. These are generally
located at placed where sea is shallow and amenable to sea sports. Normally sea
resorts boast private beaches and with facilities like sunbathing and an impromptu
food and beverages countryside counters. Such resorts will have visitors throughout
the year.
SKI RESORTS
In North America and Europe, ski resorts are situated in villages and towns
which are closer to skiing areas. These resorts provide all equipment required for
skiing on rent. Skiing lessons are also taught for beginners and new comers.
HILL RESORTS
Page 5
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
If the resort is situated in hilly tourist places, they can be termed as hill
resorts. Facilities for adventure sports like paragliding, parachuting, are provided by
most of the resorts. Hill resorts are away from cities and people usually visit these
resorts for recreation and therapeutic purposes. Health spas are attached to some
of the resorts. In such places spa treatments of all sorts are provided for the benefit
of the customers. Health spas offer packages to attract visitors all through the year.
SPA RESORTS
In spa resorts the main focus will be on the spa facilities at the resort. Different
health packages are offered for the benefit of the customers. Physical fitness
programs related to yoga, aerobics and gymnasium are provided at the spa resorts.
For relaxation, several massage therapies are also included in the package. Spa
resorts offer relaxation and rejuvenation at the same place. More and more people
WEEKEND GETAWAYS
In urban areas, people look forward for spending time with their families during
weekends and vacations. Such resorts are situated closer to cities at around a
couple of hours drive from the city. These resorts provide recreational facilities like
different types of water sports, horse riding, outdoor games like tennis, cricket and
foot ball and also facilities for indoor games like badminton, chess and other games.

People mostly visited tithal sai mandir on thursday. may it is the only sai
temple which is on sea side. this sai temple is on south side from tithal beach.
People often have a walk from sai madir to beach. there is crowd on sunday. in
summer times crowd take a little bath to get cool in tithal .which is the part of an
Arabian ocean. this temple is developed very well there is also the hotel in the same
temple property .where you can have food. there are also many vendors so u can
have some food on beach .In evening time people mostly came for hang out ,for
walk for refreshment.
By air: Various domestic flights connecting metros and other major cities are
operational from the Surat Airport.
By road: Surat lies 234 km from Ahmedabad, 131km from Vadodara, and 297 km
from Mumbai. Bus stations, both ST and private, are on the eastern edge of the city.
By rail: Train stations are also on the eastern edge of the city.

CHAPTER 2.

[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
This is a thesis proposal on designing the Tourist Resort, for the partial
fulfillment of Bachelors Degree of Architecture. This covers design problems related
to resort and tourist space, from program formulation, site selection, case studies,
literature reviews, research, and design. The project will try to incorporate all the
necessary facilities and amenities.
With a change of time, the meaning of resort has changed and now it has
been a commercial form of making money. Resort, proposed here, is also a
commercial tourist resort, which provides hospitality to both internal as well as
external tourism as it cannot depend wholly on foreigners, as there is seasonal
variance in incoming tourists. The resort will be located in urban fringe, not very far
from the core city so as it could serve urban people well and be their holiday
destination. The good resort is that which plunge people, gives feelings of intimacy,
and never urge them to move away from its boundary.
Thus, spaces has to be planned so that it comply with the demand of both
national and international visitors and standards to meet their demands. It is hard
task to incorporate both forms in a same resort as there is disambiguation in social
and economic pattern but that can be solved by classifying the group of users.
Page 10
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
If we see the present scenario, we cannot find all these activities in single
resort, thus, it is important to know the management of all these activities and also
we cannot take this sort of resort more far form urban fringe as target group is urban
dwellers too. The resort will attempt to integrate the socio-cultural aspect of
Nepalese society with contemporary spatial demand of resort and create harmony
between them, together harmonizing it with site, and surrounding to fit it in
context .One most important thing is that the resort will be focusing more on its
services which are provided through proper design of spaces and at the same time,
it will be concerning on the sustainability in architecture, of which the world
is thirsty. The tremendous rise of energy demand has created uncertain future
seeking a new form of design concept based on passive solar technologies and
sustainability in built form. Building sector contributes 30%-40%. of total global
energy consumption, which is increasing in rapid pace which need to be reduced
and it is our duty to create efficient design, though we are designing a virtual project.
Thus, there is a multiple task to be performed aside design of resort, which are
research on related topics, case studies, literature review on space, planning etc.
Hence, it is a challenging topic to work in spatial planning to incorporate the
formulated programs, Landscape planning, and along with sustainability in design.

2.2 SYNOPSIS
2.2.1AIM/ OBJECTIVES
The main objective of this proposal is to design Tourist Resort for the partial
fulfillment of Bachelor Degree of Architecture. Specifically the objectives are to,-
The ultimate objective is to attain unique resort design with all the knowledge
and skills that is learned throughout four years of learning. The final design
should be free from all the design problems and should be outstanding from all
the prevalent resort in Valsad.
Page 12
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
The scopes of the projects are, The resort with recreational facilities posses¶
wide range of scope. If we analyze the present trend of internal resort tourism and
need of leisure place, then it is acceptable to have multifunctional resort, which not
only focus on overnight stay but also concern in day services too .For internal
visitors, there is no trend of going hotels in weekend, due to their location on core
urban area. They intend to go some distance far from city so that they can enjoy the
environment and freshness there. Hence, resort tourism can provide best solution to
internal tourism.
For external tourism, it will function as a luxurious resort which provides all the
facilities within its boundary so as to make their stay pleasing and exotic. It will help
to promote resort tourism in gujrat and encourage foreigner to come here once just
to stay in this very resort .Ultimately ,it will enhance tourism sector of country .Resort
can also be a place for convection and conference, and that depends on the quality
of space they provide so that the convection, conference or seminar becomes more
interesting and fascinating. The proposed resort will attempt to provide seminar
space to meet international standard. The resort will be a place to gain knowledge
regarding the green design, as it will apply integrated energy system. The limitations
of the projects are, It will not focus more on social survey, research as this is an
academic project, and this does not fall under the primary constraint. The project is
concerned in built form so; there will be limited research and study on feasibility of
project and detailed site suitability will not be analyzed. The project will not focus on
structural analysis of built structures of resorts, although structural consultation will
be made and it will not be sufficient .The project will not covers all the details related
to green design incorporated, though research will be made and required level of
detailing will be done to meet the architectural requirement. Detailed environment
Page 13
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
assessment will nit be done due to limitation of knowledge in this field and it is not
our primary focus, as the project is virtual. However, some impact will be analyzed.
Page 14
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
2 . 3 METHODOLOGY
The project will be oriented to meet the requirements for the completion of
Bachelors Degree in Architecture. Though it is an academic requirement, it will be
based on ground reality. The following methodologies will be adopted in two phases
to come up with the final design Research phase-
This is preparatory phase for thesis project in which data, facts, spatial needs
and requirements are studied focusing on the approved topic. We will study the
present functioning and organization of spaces through case studies. All the findings
gathered in this phase will be applied in our design phase.
Design phase-
Site selection and analysis.
Program formulation and zoning
Conceptual design
Design development
Page 15
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
1. Create a built environment that has a human scale, rather than a monolithic or
monumental scale and provides visual excitement and orientation for pedestrians.
High rise buildings in particular should provide pedestrian scale and detail at the
ground floor;
2. Establish height and massing transitions that maintain visual and spatial
relationships with adjacent buildings;
4. Provide common usable open space and outdoor amenities that are of mutual
benefit to surrounding property owners, businesses, residents and visitors;
5. Foster sustainable development that meets the needs of the present without
compromising the needs of future generations;
6. Utilize the highest quality of materials and design in all buildings and spaces to
create memorable and successful places;
8. Reduce the amount and impact of on-site surface parking along streets and
walkways;
9. Improve the transition from the Resort Area to residential neighborhoods; and
10. Create a “character of place” that will provide memorable experiences typical of
great resort cities.
Page 16
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
The appearance of buildings within the Oceanfront Resort District and the
relationship of the buildings to the public and private spaces around them are critical
to the overall success of the District..
The goal is to develop new buildings that respect the past successes of the Resort
Area, but also allow for individual buildings and businesses to present their unique
image.
Facades of buildings that face the street and Boardwalk should incorporate human
scale detailing through the use of reveals, belt courses, cornices, expression of
structural or architectural bays, recessed windows or doors, material or material
module changes, color and/or texture differences, or strongly expressed mullions.
Buildings should be divided into “modules” that provide visual interest and serve to
create a traditional “Main Street.
Page 17
[NATURE BASED TOURISM,TITHAL,GUJARAT.]
Canopies, awnings and similar features along the facades of buildings are
encouraged. Such features may be constructed of rigid or flexible material designed
to complement the streetscape of the area. No such feature should interfere with the
growth or maintenance of street trees or the lighting of the sidewalk. A minimum
overhead clearance of at least eight feet, six inches (8’-6”) from the sidewalk should
be maintained.
Horizontal (flat) roof forms should be screened by extensions of the building wall
planes (parapet).
Buildings with frontage at the intersection of two streets should provide a building
entrance at the corner to enhance activity at the intersection. In lieu of providing
such an entrance, enhancement of the building at the intersection is encouraged
through additional building mass, distinctive architectural elements, different building
materials, changes in building planes, or changes in building shape .
While some diversity in exterior building materials and color is a part of the tradition
of resort areas, the range in the Oceanfront Resort District should be limited in order
to promote a sense of visual continuity for the area.
