The project is third significant addition to the Vidyalankar Educational Campus at Mumbai. For the design of this 300 seat auditorium in Central Mumbai, we decided to study sound, the very element that the space has to engage with. On the premise that the space is merely a container and that sound deserves primacy in hierarchy of considerations, we simulated wave patterns within the given structural volume to understand its effect as it travelled through. Our professed goal was to ensure that the spatial form and materiality working in tandem should help achieve even sound quality in the space while keeping reverberation factor low.
