This
facility, manufacturing gaskets, is located on flat land
on the outskirts of Pune. A
single level structure houses the raw material
incoming, testing, despatch as well as scrap collection
at the rear, while training and administrative areas are
located in the front.
|
 |
| In
order to deviate from a stereotype design, a courtyard
was introduced, around which the administrative
functions are arranged. |
 |
This combined with the curvilinear
form breaks the formality of any industrial
facility and creates visual interest. The presence
of a garden in the centre of the built area provides
unexpected peace and serenity
to the otherwise stressed environment.
