SYNOPSIS

This project focuses on a study of building design in a tropical climate in Marathwada,

Maharashtra, India. The project aims for a design of a INDIAN INSTITUTE OF
MANAGEMENT at Aurangabad, Maharashtra. That relates to the cultural, topological
and climatic context. This aim is reached through a thorough analysis of the site and
building tradition together with investigations of institutional building technologies in
general. Calculations on the energy consumption will integrated in the process from
the early design phase till the final detailing.

AIM

The existing IIM campuses in the country are at its full population. There is s significant
need for more IIMs to cater the need of professional country needs every year. And
Marathwada in Maharashtra is a region which is neglected by the governments from

tourism hub, and is surrounded by several historical monuments and the
UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Ajanta and Ellora caves. It has a very reach
cultural and heritage history to influence the architecture.

OBJECTIVES

1. The primary purpose of designing an education institution building is to bring

the justice to the region which has been pronounced as backward since
decades.
2. To create an architecture focused on the advancement of specific professions
to advance India’s industry. Main focus is to create a new school of thought
that incorporated a more modern-style of teaching that allowed students to

3. To envision a new, modern school for India’s best and brightest.
4. To create an environment where education is a collaborative, cross-disciplinary
effort occurring in and out of the classroom.

NEED TO STUDY

N education institute is comprised of multi-disciplinary buildings with multi-disciplinary

functions rite from mass audio gathering spaces to like auditorium to small
casual/formal group discussion area to administrative block to residential units like
staff quarters and hostels. So in an institutional building one gets to study and explore
the architectural possibilities for multi-disciplinary buildings their nature, functionality,
organisational structure, etc.

CHOICE OF SELECTION

The main purpose behind the selection of this topic is personal interest in designing a
campus with multidisciplinary building in one single campus bounded by one single
design language where the flow of connectivity among building, activities,
landscape & build up environment is established by means of efficient design.
