 FAÇADE TREATMENT
• One of the striking features of the building is the façade, which convey the contradictory sense of
immobility as well as flexibility. The building acquires its overall finish in its outer façade in grey
colored grit with grooves breaking the surface. The exteriors are uniformly finished in grit, the interiors
come in as a surprise, with composition of white, grey, and greens of the court. A grey mass puncture the
undulating surfaces and the skyline formed by steps and terraces give a unique character to the building.

WINDOWS
• An interesting part is the use of jharokhas of traditional architecture to new materials and expression.
Their asymmetrical placement bears an incomplete look.

TORN PAPER AESTHETICS

• As a gesture to the evolution from the concept of ruins, the architect has used the elements of tearing a
stone wall slowly generating starkly colored bands and finishing in grit.
