We had gone to Ahmadabad to show our school design to the Master architect B V Doshi.

A master never gives you a solution, he just asks you questions that lead you down the path of self discovery. He didn’t comment on our design but asked us to go visit 2 of his buildings in Ahmadabad.

  1. The well documented CEPT campus
  2. The Shreyas Society School

Good design ensures the user experiences the will and purpose of the structure. Every element of the school serves a higher purpose, to encourage learning.

After our meeting with him we redesigned the entire structure to make sure it supported our core ethos, ‘make learning fun’.
