BRIEF
The GEV Temple project is an unique venture aimed at rejuvenating an existing temple roof and enclosure. The primary objective here is to preserve its essence but also enhance its functionality for ever larger gatherings.
CHALLENGE
The complexity lies in the fact that this smaller temple/garbhagriha's shikhara must stand out prominently within a much larger environment. While ensuring its visibility and significance, our challenge is to provide enough space for devotees to perform their rituals comfortably.
The design must strike a balance between aesthetics and functionality. It should embrace the temple's heritage while addressing the practical needs of the worshipers.
SOLUTION
Our solution revolves around crafting a design that seamlessly blends tradition with innovation. We aim to create a roofing structure that not only protects devotees from the elements but also complements the temple's architectural heritage.
To achieve this, we're meticulously planning for rain and sunlight protection, ensuring that religious ceremonies can proceed without interruption.
A Sacred Sanctuary: This beautifully elevated structure symbolizes a divine connection between the earthly and the spiritual realms, offering a tranquil space for meditation and reflection.

Divine Tranquility: The sacred dome rises from the heart of the temple, surrounded by wide verandas that offer a peaceful sanctuary for spiritual reflection.
