and the context in which they exist.

• Human beings are creatures of nature, perceiving their environment through the senses. Recognizing
human values and the human response to space, nature, and light

• We use technology, innovative systems and materials as tools to achieve their design philosophy.
Buildings should serve people, not the other way around.

provided the world with significant and memorable projects.

coffee shop and travel desk are located here.

Class of 2009) are the favourite haunts of the students on campus.
 DESIGN DESCRIPTION

• The Master Plan and design of the Indian School of Business addresses four criteria:
 the environment,
 the Indian character,
 interactivity, and
 information technology.

• The project was fast-tracked to meet the school’s ambitious opening schedule.

• The campus is located in a semi-arid tropical setting,

• For example, the runoff from the limited rainfall is captured for treatment and reuse.
 CONCEPT
The architects also drew on
symbolic and practical
functions of traditional
Indian architecture .The
campus is inspired by the
traditional nine-grid system
found in the many mantras
of Hindu
temples.
The 64- and 81-square Vastupurusha mandalas

THE NINE GRID FORMATION

REPRENTING THE MANTRAS OF
THE HINDU TEMPLES

PITHA MANDALA
 Sunscreens and arcades are used extensively in the design, and many
buildings are elevated to enhance airflow, while water is used for its
cooling effects.

Traditional Mughal architecture are given a modern interpretation.

The campus is linked with India’s culture, the architecture speaks to the
future

THEY ALSO HAVE BOREWELL

The sustainable campus of ISB also has its own

• FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM

THIS INCLUDES
• FIRE HYDRANTS : A CIRCULAR LINE OF VERY HIGH PRESSURE FIRE HYDRANTS RUN AROUND THE BUILDINGS.
• ANOTHER SET OF HYDRANTS RUN ON EACH FLOOR AT EVERY 10M DISTANCE.

• SMOKE DETECTORS ARE INSTALLED IN EVERY HABITABLE AND NON HABITABLE SPACES.

• SPRINKLERS ARE HOWEVER INSTALLED ONLY IN PLACES WHERE THE FIRE LOAD IS MORE.
HVAC:
The use of thick walls cladded with light pink stone reduces the
load on the air conditioning system of ISB.
But however it has a centralized AC for the academic block
which is controlled by engineering department and can also be
individually controlled in each room.
The corridors on the second floor are also air conditioned but
mildly.
While on the first floor the openings on either side are not glazed
and plants towards the courtyard keeps the heat away while
breezy flows in from the opposite side.

The student villages have split ACs.

WATER HARVESTING SYSTEM

ISB also has a water harvesting system which is evident in every
nook of design as shown in the picture. The sloping glazed
chajjas direct rainwater into the drains echoeing the rectangular
system . The water then flows to the lake where it replenishes
the groundwater and also used for various other purposes.
