The brain and powerhouse of a respected institution that is the alma mater of the ex-president of India. This had to be redone in a demure but stately manner reminiscent of the past visionaries.

Sustainability Features

  • Refurbished old sofas and chairs.

  • Repurposed existing wooden shelves and cabinets.

  • Textured paint to add interest to walls.

  • Adding a lot of built-in storage of repurposed wood for all the paperwork to avoid purchase of new cabinets.
