Indian architecture

Created in response to the "hostile" local environment, the three-storey building was wrapped in a banded Corten-steel shell to protect it.

The project features a limited palette of low-cost materials including floors made from local kota stone, white-painted surfaces and a rough grey render used for the walls.

The simple materials and finishes in varying shades of white and grey give the building a neutral, monochrome aesthetic that is enlivened by the bright pops of primary colour applied to the external walls and internal doors.

The project focused on creating quality social spaces, so the atrium is crisscrossed by bridges at each level that function as additional places for students to congregate.

The accommodation building features a simple, triangular plan with rooms arranged around a central atrium topped with skylights that allow natural light to penetrate down through this circulation space.
