Best Project of Public Building or Facility

About the project (provided by the applicant)
Our proposed landmark public building will be an architectural marvel, harmonizing traditional Indian courtyard design with modern skybridges, symbolizing both cultural heritage and futuristic vision. The courtyard will serve as the heart of the structure, promoting natural ventilation and social interaction. Skybridges will connect various sections, offering panoramic town views and encouraging movement.
Sustainability is central to our design. Utilizing passive cooling techniques, the courtyard will reduce heat gain, while green roofs and vertical gardens on skybridges will enhance insulation. Shaded walkways and louvers will optimize daylight use and minimize direct sun exposure, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate.
This building will not only be a functional public space but also a testament to innovative, eco-friendly architecture, setting a benchmark for future developments in the town.
