Competition : Vision Beyond Sight
It was a very competitive environment when designing and working on the competition. I researched at every step of the way to ensure that I got my designs right according to the requirements. I delved deep into the psychology and anthropometry of blind students to understand their needs in detail and design a holistic space for them to grow. Translation of the design grammar and vocabulary into the architectural spaces was a crucial step of design, which was reflected in the new typology of the classroom that I designed for the interactive learning that blind children require. Designing a simple school with optimum acoustic character was the challenge. .

Our experience in the Competition has been incredible. It provided us the platform to push the boundaries of our vision and creativity. The competition made us think through the perspective of blind people and have enlightened their challenges and struggles.
