The project is located in a remote area of Uttar Pradesh namely Raibareilly.
The brief for the project was to create a sports complex with a number of indoor and outdoor stadiums as a part of the existing school complex. This complex is envisioned to cater to the students along with being used for games at national level. The client wanted that the sports complex acts as an identity market for the city and the organisation. The organisation is a programme whereby it pays for the students selected from rural areas for their boarding, studies, clothing, food and any other aspect related to their growth. This aspect of the project makes it a very special brief for it is a project that looks at grooming the future of India in the field of sports.
The project is based on interfacing the user and his built environment into a coherent whole. The programme has been translated into trajectories of movement. These flow lines generated the formal idea which is underlined by interweaving of the various activities. This results in creating a design with an inherent quality of interaction.
The programme analysis resulted in the distribution of the various functions on site. Conceptually these programmatic zones were treated as pebbles dropped in water. It is the inference of the water field, thus creating ripples giving a guideline for the formal design language of the project.
