nurses, child care workers, social workers, computer programmers, insurance salespeople, housewives, teachers,
professors, telephone operators, counselors, librarians, mid wife, aerobic instructor, HR managers, bankers,
stockbrokers, accountants, journalists, and many, many more.

most important and critical. Major problems are faced by the Blind people are mainly in this age group. Once they
are guided properly then they can live normal life afterwards.
This critical job of educating them is done by Blind Schools.

To develop sensitive towards campus planning for tangential educational strategies while incorporating
concepts of interactivity within.
Offers a barrier free environment for children with immense possibilities of innovation.

MAJOR OBJECTIVES
Understanding the ideology of the school and translating it into the built form.
Studying site and climate responsive design methods to find context specific solutions.
Focus on aspects on the site planning.
Evolving an architectural vocabulary with respect to form, materials. Shape and scale of the project.
Undertake a spatial analysis and detail out the building design.
Integrating infrastructure with the building program.
Integrating technology with the building program.
