Light and ventilation • The campus has been designed taking into
consideration the hot and dry climate of Ahmedabad.
• The activities are so planned that they spill over into inward looking spaces .
• The courtyard are a result of this and remain building in the shadow for most part of the day.
• The external cladding is prefabricated and consist of heat resisting glass in metal frames in workshops and in rosewood frame in studios. • Winds from the riverside are captured in the studios and workshops from the terraces due to adjustable glazing.
spill over spaces
Features like water bodies with jalis are used to filter the cooled air flowing over the water and passed in interiors.
pockets of vegetation
• Pockets of vegetation blend with the structure on the exterior as well as interior which helping to lower the temperature.• Large trees protect the building from
surface glazing and courtyards from excessive heating.
Landscape• As soon as the built form is placed on site it generates
its own space in and around it. Thus the outside open spaces are as much important a design criteria as inner spaces.
lawns are used for informal gathering, cultural program, etc.
• The campus has been completely landscaped. Three platforms extend from the institute building in the lawn acting as built-in sit outs.
• There is also an ancient monument and open air amphitheater having densely planted trees around it.
Landscape courtyard
• Amphitheatre is also used for social functions , fashion shows, etc.
• Lawns are not only a feature of landscape but they act as interactive spaces.
