LAHUJI SALVE AAROGYA KENDRA:
This is a training center and a hospital( consulting only) in Aurangabad iNDIA, catering to the slum dwellers. The design aims at associating a high degree of semantics, by virtue of the personality of great freedom fighter “ Lahuji”. There is a beauty in brutality – ( beton brut), which I have tried to depict the personality through the form. The user – the slum dweller is happy and comfertable this built environment. The project was shortlisted for Aga Khan Award- 10 th Cycle for the final jury. The building uses lot of graphics and has a monument character which is inspired by the several monuments in the vicinity.
