STORY BOARD
The idea was to imagine a space showing scattered images of elements that Corbusier could think of while dreaming the making of chandigarh . The unrealism of a dream has thus been attempted to be created . In this office we imagined a phase in Corbusiers life when he would be imagining the making of chandigarh
The Corbusian Dream / Forum Advaita

The dreams are often scattered images of elements that one is trying to put together, unfulfilled compositions etc . Here we borrowed the element of Pilotis with voids having soft edges. This element was used and multiplied into many planes satisfying meaning into the context , but eventually creating a dream like situation where the planes are all over the space

These elements form the wall compositions, partitions, and the lighting design element. The partitions are created untouched from the ceiling to retain the emphasis of scattered elements of a dream. The arrival plane on the wall becomes one of the focal elements with dark grey wall color that merges with the ceiling

The opposite wall has a wall panelling that is partially inside and partially outside the glass cabin , creating a tention in the mind as if moving and nor arrived , sustaining the conflicts of a dream . Another plane partially covers the pantry and half of the middle cabin again fllows the similar conceptual approach .
A small vertical partition with a void stands perpendicular to the wall that helps create a notional foyer for waiting area

The lighting design element are 3 horizontal planes , inspired from the 3 vertical planes of the high court building but positioned horizontally .Â
