Located amidst luscious tea gardens, the campus is designed to house a Training Hall, Office Studio & Residential units. The building with a pitched roof design is designed to respond outside to extend the training activities into the landscape and the space in between the buildings to absorb different activities during different times of the day varying in scale and privacy.

This approach also confirms a campus built in a rural setup with many non-programmed activities anticipated by the PP team in the future.

Formal articulation, nuanced color application, variations in the pitched roof form and tectonics, and refined craftsmanship actively enhance the spatial complexity beyond the plan.
