FRONT FACADE

ACHARYA CHANDAR BOSE ROAD

Since there was nothing in the

surroundings to look out to at the lower
levels, the entire volume comprising of the
public spaces and the vertical circulation is
punctuated by small 45 cm diameter
circular openings

DROP OF POINT

 These openings allow natural light into

the public spaces at daytime and are
made of frit glass so that the exterior is
purposely not seen.

 Each opening is lit by LEDs during the

evening hours that change colour as the
RAMP
night progresses, making the building
TO BASEMENT dynamic as it glows in different hues like a
large punctuated lantern
