Community and Institutional Architectural Design
We design educational and public spaces that blend with the local landscape, fostering learning and community engagement.
This is the proposed site plan for a new school campus near Ahmednagar. Our master plan strategically places the new primary school, a public library, and outdoor recreational areas to create a cohesive and integrated educational environment that respects the existing landscape.
These architectural renderings show our vision for the school's exterior. The design uses a combination of earthy terracotta jali screens for ventilation and playful pops of color, creating a building that is both contextually appropriate and stimulating for young students.
Our design emphasizes the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. This rendering shows open corridors, shaded courtyards, and large circular openings that frame views of the landscape, encouraging learning and play to happen everywhere on campus.
The proposed design includes a public library with an integrated outdoor amphitheater, creating a valuable community hub. The interior rendering shows a bright, airy, double-height library space designed to be a welcoming and inspiring place for study and reading.
About Community & Institutional Projects
When planning this school campus near Ahmednagar, our focus was on maintaining porosity between the buildings and the landscape. We used terracotta jali screens and strategically placed courtyards to facilitate passive cooling and provide shaded, naturally lit spaces for students, balancing utility with a playful architectural aesthetic.
Our approach to community architecture centers on the idea that public spaces should be extensions of the landscape. By integrating a new primary school and library alongside existing structures, we aimed to create a cohesive campus that feels grounded in its rural setting.
The design utilizes passive sustainability to manage temperature, a critical factor for institutional buildings in this region. Terracotta jali screens offer ventilation while reducing heat gain, and the integration of open corridors and circular openings frames the landscape, encouraging students to engage with the outdoors as much as the indoors.
The library includes an integrated outdoor amphitheater, transforming it into a versatile community hub that serves both the school and the wider public. We believe that architecture for institutions should be functional and sustainable without sacrificing the character or the storytelling that makes a space truly usable.
