Ground Floor Plan
The overall layout shows how the academic, administrative and residential functions have been separated very smoothly through a public central plaza and a central field. The northernmost block houses the academic functions whereas the central administrative and ancillary functions are housed in the middle block. The hostels are housed on the southern most part of the site.

Form Generation
•At first, one block for the entire institutional functions and another for residential functions were considered.
•Next the institutional block was divided into academic and administrative functions and residential functions were divided among male and female dorms.
•Next the institutional blocks were staggered towards the lake side to create desirable spaces.
•Finally through proper articulation, both the institutional blocks were connected by a plaza and proper buffer was given between institutional and residential functions through a playground and between the male and female dormitories as well.
