Sultan Garhi Cultural & Recreational Centre

Culture can be defined as people’s way of life representing a nation’s goals, practices and shared beliefs. Culture-related activities such as music, art, dance, drama, etc. are powerful tools for urban redevelopment and revitalisation. Thus, culture should be preserved, and given an ideal platform to flourish and spread. The world as we know it is gradually moving towards the digital realm. While the digital future is inevitable (and vital for growth), there is a need to balance it with the creative realm of arts — which has always been an important means of expression for humans. Adjoining the site is the Sultan Garhi tomb, the first Islamic mausoleum in India. Yet, a very few people know about its existence. Thus, the project also aims at bringing out its importance through various design moves responding to the structure.
