site and climateThis panel orients the institute as per its larger geographical location and consecutively as per the site. Since it is situated in the tropical region special attention was paid to the sun path as well as direction of the monsoon rains. The external louvered skin as well as the opening between the blocks were designed to make the structure breathe and at the same time to protect it from harsh climatic conditions. The roof encompassing the building was also lifted 14' above the final floor to allow hot air to escape from the top.
