​

1. Understanding the design of built and open spaces as a resultant of socio-cultural influences of the place

2. To understand the significance of light and ventilation in an office and public building

5. To incorporate vernacular/traditional planning approach in the current era urban setting project

6. To understand and focus on the built up profile.

a) Design a sustainable working space. (Sustainable means proper natural light, ventilation)
b) Integration of multi-use space in a single building block. c) Creating different relief spaces (Informal spaces) for a public building which are not described in the area programme but have very important role in a public building.
d) Providing dedicated spaces, the built environment of the project has to reflect the
vernacular architecture of the region.

The concept is to create a simple yet very sustainable building with vernacular materials like flagstone sandstone and limestone plus making it such that very less resources are required in terms of cooling and overall performance .
