  • Bandhan School of Business Weaves A Romance Between Site And Architect | Abin Design Studio

    Microinitiatives are turned into enduring assets by an unconventional take on traditional practices in the Bandhan School of Business. It weaves a romance of the connection between the site and the architect. As a result, it represents that between the sky and the water, there is “material,” which is Earth.

    Site Context

    The architecture borrows from the contextual landscape of this earth. It showcases the context it sits in, rather than standing out from it. It rather creates a frame to emphasize the natural views.

    School Of Business

    The campus design is motivated by Tagore’s Bishwa Bharati University, with individual blocks interspersed among existing trees, instead of a continuous structure.

    Historic Reference

    Taking cues from historic buildings and imbibing their indigenous methods towards sustainability in a modern way is the soul of our design philosophy. The style respects the heritage, culture and tradition of the physical and social local community and the craftsmen lend their skills to create a versatile space.

    School Of Business

    The form is conceived as masses and voids carved out of the mounds. The structure showcases local burnt-brick construction with façade patterns integrated into the brickwork itself.

    Beyond Physicality

    We believe that architecture becomes meaningful when it expands its sphere of influence beyond its physical entity. It transforms not only the surroundings but also the lives of its users, becoming an emblem of generosity.

    School Of Business

    We want to encourage dialogues with local authorities to actively contribute to the shaping of the community’s environment and everyday life.

    School Of Business

    Involvement of Local Industry

    Empowering and encouraging the local industry in this way allows for a transparent and inclusive process, where the scale of human hands is felt throughout and the building acquires a human ‘skin’. Promoting craft anchors a project in place and context.

    We wanted to encourage the rethinking of the forms and processes at stake in the construction of community infrastructures.

    The Human Context

    Transforming a space via the human context, namely, a co-beneficial system consisting of the inclusion of stakeholders, not only achieves flexibility in functionality and interaction but also establishes a tectonic relationship with the physical context.

    There are many intangible elements that we must understand and acknowledge: ephemeral activations and gatherings, dynamic and changing realities, and the mixing of formal and informal processes.

    School Of Business

    ADS demonstrates how practices can successfully embed social concern, remain fluid, generously reciprocate and enrich small projects with steadfast commitment, resolute persuasiveness, and sharp negotiating and technical skills.

    Sustainable Practices

    Varying heights of green roofs shape the campus by creating assorted levels and hierarchies in its physical form. This emulates a meandering walk through the forest but also ensures natural cross-ventilation.

    School Of Business

    Vast faces created with clean lines and sleek forms provide a canvas to showcase a myriad of rustic textures and locally crafted techniques of treating building facades with “handmade” finishes.

    School Of Business

    As a core ideology, we incorporate contextual solutions to make each of our projects as sustainable as possible.
