Institutional facilities are arranged around the Banyan along the curve of a golden spiral, an evolutionary form representing possibilities of sustainable growth.
A transitional axis connects the Banyan with a Park containing an inspirational museum in Railway carriages, catapulting from the client's identity of the transformative train journey for social enterprise - Jagriti Yatra.
A large amphitheater oriented towards the Banyan tree, forms the heart of the campus. Steps gently leading to water reflecting Banyan’s aerial roots evoke memory of ghats at nearby city Varanasi. Spaces embody principles of solar passive design with light and air as essential materials of architecture.
