Project Description

Indrashil University Campus with necessary infrastructure for academic, research as well as residential facilities is envisaged at Dholera, 110 km from Ahmedabad. The university is envisioned as a holistic learning environment which is futuristic, while also keeping the traditional practices of education intact. The built environment brings in the traditional concept of courtyards and skylights as a climatic responsive design.

The residential zones comprise of student hostel and staff residence, and are located in the centre of the university with academic and research zones on either sides. The field in the mid will contribute in storm water management and may also work as water basin if required. The core idea of the design was to use the water from site run-off and integrate it with the landscape through bio-swales and water bodies. The academic section is kept as a distinct node at one end of the campus.
