Proposed as an ‘International’ alternative to the principal scheme to satisfy the clients’ request, the master plan for the Dayanand Sagar Academy of Technology was based on the imperative of combining work, study and personal living.

Situated in a remote location outside of Bangalore, the gate and administrative buildings maintain an appropriate scale with the surrounding nature and nearby temples. As the topography slopes, the required built area is revealed. The institutional complex emerges from the landscape and defines a formalized park for students incorporated into the west end of the campus.
