DRIK PICTURE LIBRARY AND GALLERY

DRIK PICTURE LIBRARY & GALLERY
. . . . An ArTchitecture

I took a brush full of color from the light of the sun and put it on the canvas of shadow and created an aquarelle in the “DRIK Gallery” project, place for the photographers. The project is housing exhibition gallery, picture library, design studio, photography studio, dark rooms with related facilities, computer & multimedia, books library,
restaurants etc.

“Light” is indispensable in photography. “Light” is also the key element in this project. The essence of this project is understood from the water color effect created in the courtyard by the play of light, shades and shadows of the sun & thus creates an arTchitecture.
