Along with interior refurbishment of an existing convocation hall in Kashmir University Campus at Srinagar,, the additional construction would create a fresh face for the building. A glass façade screened with wooden slates form local timber to bring in lot of natural light, , a roof that evokes the undulations of rolling hills and mountains helps it to blend in better with surroundings, while still creating a certain distinct architectural character; we proposed such design features to make the new building forward looking, contemporary in character, but yet retain connection with its context.
