Dome Architecture Design Transforms This Auditorium | SD SHARMA & ASSOCIATES

The dome architecture planning of the auditorium complex in Coimbatore is purely based on location and function. It was the client who clearly stated that the building must not obstruct any vision either from outside the campus or from inside. Any other form other than a dome would have been catastrophic.

Editor’s Note: “Designed by SD Sharma & Associates, the dome architecture of the auditorium complex in Coimbatore is a functional masterpiece guided by location-specific requirements. With 1,200 seats, the auditorium features a domical structure with an unobstructed view and aesthetics. The alignment of the School of Architecture and Museum offers seamless flow between them through design, light, and material.” ~ Anusha Sridhar
