In a school designed by DesignAware in Hyderabad, India, the rocky hillside surrounding an 800-year-old fortress makes many of the walls and floors. Located in a populated residential neighbourhood below the 16th century Golkonda Fort, this school is built in place of a makeshift school in a large shed site that was attended by local children for four years. Built on the lowest budget possible, this replacement school has the rocky and uneven terrain incorporated into the building. Funds were raised for four years for the building, where its scale and layout was formed by the existing terrain and neighbouring buildings with which it shares walls. At the site’s lowest parts, it occupies the size of the adjacent houses as it stands in place of the one that was overhauled to make way for an entrance to the building.
Here at SigmaCollege of Architecture, the Top Architecture College in Tamil Nadu, we broaden the horizons of our students by mentoring them to think out of the box.
