Auditorium-cum-convocation hall, India (circa 1980s-1990s)
circa 1980s-1990s
Project
This project series documents an auditorium-cum-convocation hall in India, likely sometime in the 1980s or 1990s. The exact locations of this project is unknown. This hall looks strikingly similar in design to Prakash's Tagore Theatre (see project series AP206.S1.1960.PR01 in this fonds) and J&K Theatre (see project series AP206.S1.1969.PR01 in this fonds). All three buildings were comprised of two square-shaped volumes, turned on their axis to overlap at their corners, with the stage located directly at the overlap. However, unlike the others, this auditorium's exterior had a zig-zagging ramp that spanned the entire north elevation. It is not clear whether this project was ever realized.
The project is recorded through floor plans, elevations and a section, probably dating from sometime in the 1980s-1990s.
Materials in this project series were kept in their original order.
