A Meditative Sanctuary In The City
Architecture + Design
|October 2019
Project: Karmapa International Buddhist Institute, New Delhi
-
There is an undeniable dichotomy within the urban fabric of New Delhi, where its rich heritage coexists with the chaotic, unplanned development of the city. In such a context, the Karmapa International Buddhist Institute stands an oasis of calm and serenity within the frenzy of the city. Built in 1990 for His Holiness, the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa, this institute of higher learning in Buddhist treatises, is nestled in a thick cover of greenery in the Qutab Institutional Area of south Delhi. The site is an inspiration for its students, who are offered magnificent views of the expansive green cover around. The design is a seamless integration of this natural aspect with the built form.
