“Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think” - Albert Einstein
The design aims at creating spaces focusing on more of self-learning than formal education. Hence, focusing on infusion of informal spaces and classrooms being just a medium of instructions. A hierarchy between open, semiopen and built in connection with public, semipublic and private spaces is followed throughout the design. The structure being connected to nature, also embibes maximum flow of light and ventilation. The institution being a place of temporary learning focuses more on selfdevelopment.

“ Time spent with nature, h e a l s yo u r b o d y, m i n d a n d s p i r i t � - Osho
The aim was to create a natural healing space in the chaos of the stressfull city life. The experience engages all the senses of the user right from the entrance and the process of purifying the soul starts from the moment the user enters into the complex. The interior setting brings him close to nature and embarks him on a journey towards positivity. The spaces imitate elements from nature and brings the user to a natural experience and purifies the soul.
