Architecture

This renovation of an old auditorium in a college campus and the clients need to present an inspiring element to the multitude of young minds while also indicating a budgetary constraint led the direction of my design thought on various elements including reuse and repurposing of existing steel members of the roof truss and retaining the 14” brick masonry to act as crucial structural support.

The form and additional features were also dictated by the site location and its orientation.
Being a place of extreme hot climatic conditions, the south-west mass of the building was purposely enhanced and lifted to shield the main auditorium from the harsh afternoon sun. The east front was enhanced with a colonnaded corridor with perforated jaali feature to not only create a dramatic facade and entrance porch and walkway but to also provide privacy and screen the main hall from the roadside intrusive noise, direct light and dust.

The design of the auditorium is centred around the concept of using single tone throughout the space focusing on creating harmony, simplicity and visual unity. By using a consistent color palette, the space will feel cohesive & immersive. While selection of diverse materials will provide texture, depth and contrast. The Single tone approach aims to create an environment that is both elegant and timeless. The choice of materials, though varied, will adhere to a consistent hue, allowing them to complement one another while enhancing the visual and tactile experience of the space. The design will highlight the interplay of light, shadow, and texture, creating an atmosphere that feels dynamic yet cohesive.
