My approach here was to incorporate various functions in my design. The use of monumental concrete arches defines the values of fundamental and strong gained by the institute over the 50 years of its existence. The structures could also be used otherwise to sustain through event graphics and decorations and function as a platform for the same. I added a map and a info-desk right where they are needed. The plaza serves as a congregation space during events.
