The Project is located in Hyderabad, in the tech district with multiple offices, headquarters and residential buildings. The fifteen-floor educational institute is a response to spread out educational institutes located in the outskirts of the city, completely disconnected with the surroundings, thus living in their own bubble, not connected to the practicing industry outside, creating a huge imbalance. Secondly the conventional high-rise buildings which all look the same even though they house different functions. The association of high-rise typology could be summed up as- glass buildings with makeup, wester style, structure hidden, rectangular mass, with unknown function.
​
Vision Statment :
Experiences
& Behaviors :
Tackling the closed mindedness of people (context specific) High rise convention, educational bubble
For public- The design should take them by surprise
For public users- They should be able to interact and engage with the building
For users of the institute- cross disciplinary interaction should be promoted.
Architecture :
The architectural response to promote the experience: Unconventional form responding to the rectilinear massing.
Structure integrated within the built and shown as it is.
Public spaces open for everyone, thus creating interactions between users and the built.
Program wise segregation of spaces, to promote cross disciplinary interaction amongst different institutes.
Pedestrian pathway cutting through site, to allow people to pass through the building and glance through it.
Perspective section showing the nature of spaces in the built.
