The New Kolkata Development Authority is responsible for organizing and monitoring the development of New Town along the East side of the city. The development, is a symbol of the future character of the city with modern design language and facilities. Hence, their new office building also needed to showcase the spirit of new generation of the culture.
The objective of the design was to provide a modern facility for the client, while considering the importance of public access into the building. The proposed design not only accommodates for the public, but promotes it to become a public forum, open to the citizens for various purposes, thus making a direct connection to the development to the people.
The facade scheme reflects the porous, yet firm nature of the authority through a pattern which is derived from traditional art work of Bengal.
