Infrastructure

The campus building is separated into an academic block and a residential block. Developed and designed by Abin Design Studio [54] [55] the decorative pattern of the building is inspired by nature [56] There are single occupancy fully furnished hostel rooms for the students within the campus for both boys and girls along with mess facility available adjacent to the hostel. There is a common room for indoor games and the students also have access to the gymnasium. The entire campus is Wi-fi enabled with LAN connectivity thereby providing access to the internet to both the academic as well as the residential block. Classroom lectures are updated with the latest audio-visual equipment.

Architecture

Consisting of 11,000 square meters, this unique building is the first of its kind to be built in India with its colored façade and unmistakable identity. [57] Designed by architect Abin Chaudhuri, the concept was to insert a burst of color in the city's monotonous dense urban fabric, representing the colors of the sky. To achieve the colors in the glass facade, Vanceva PBB has been used as the sandwich material between two layers of glass. [58] The colored laminate on the façade follows no repetitive pattern and is symbolic of the unpredictable nature of the sky. It also represents the vibrancy of today's youth. An integrated plaza with a water body has been designed. The water body receives no direct sunlight and creates a comfortable micro-climate. Wherever possible shading trees have been planted on the hard landscape and soft landscape has been introduced. [59]
