“Education makes a man a right thinker and an innovator. In order to accomplish this, it teaches him knowledge from outside the classroom, teaches him to reason and reminds him of past history, so that he may be able to judge the present more accurately. Through education, he finds himself in a room with lots of windows that lead out into the world." describes Ar. Gaurav Gupta. The facade is designed by taking into consideration the heat-prone areas as the usage of a double-skinned facade resists heat from entering the premises of the building. The windows are designed by considering some of the insights of Bernoulli’s principle. According to this, the increase in pressure of winds decreases its temperature and that is why we have taken. recessed windows by which winds enter the building should be cooler as compared to the outside of the building. The Tectonic Facade and simple color scheme are used which enhances the aesthetic beauty of the building.
