Introduction: -
ABOUT BUILDING: -
Plot plan not following any particular axis.
This complex reaches out over the ground and expands into a kind of
pinwheel with three hooked arms.
A short two-storey bridge supported by four pillars and crossing and
intervening street connect it with the school of design.
The student building connects directly with the school of design
through one storey wing.
L is much more than H because of that the elevation shows the linear
nature.
CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM
Mushroom shaped ceiling on the lower level.
Skeleton of reinforced concrete.
Roofs covered with asphalt tile.
Steel sections are designed to take tensile and compressive stress.
BUILDING FEATURES

Smooth façade.
Cubic shapes.
Colors – grey, white, beige or black.

ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER: -
The complex is arrangement of cube and juxtaposed against another
cube differing in size, material and location.
The view shows each is blended into a unified composition. It is
necessary to go around it to see it from above as well as below.
The air view shows how the different units blend together. The eye
cannot sum up such a complex at one glance.
