Vision
The vision for the proposed design of Nausena Bhawan is to conceive an Administrative Building which is futuristic in its functional performance capacity as well as possesses a significant architectural language which is reminiscent of traditional Lutyens’ design and at the same time is path-breaking in the legacy of administrative building designs in India.
The Architecture of Nausena Bhawan aims to bring the 3 ’D’s viz. Discipline, Dynamism and Dominance under one roof which will not only be visible in its physical form but also the kind of workability, atmosphere and social image it is going to harness.
