Built Form Space Relationships:

The mega-form consists of square modules linked by linear blocks

This complex hence has well defined spaces with defined movement linkages.

vehicular traffic from pedestrians. Vehicular traffic has been made
available at -2m and - 5.5m. Pedestrian movement is at a level of +1.5m

designed as office-cum-shopping units, with shops on lower ground
floors.

 The character of Bhikaji cama place is achieved by pattern of long thick

black lines between lightly coloured lines of columns in all building.
