Orientation And Organqisation Of Spaces

theapartments arelocated south west of downtown Mumbai in an upscale suburban setting

In Mumbai, buildings are ideally orientated east-west to catch the prevailing sea- breezes, and views out to the Arabian Sea on one side and the harbour on the other: the same directions as the hot afternoon sun and heavy monsoon rains

Development

The shaping of towers: The building is a square tower. Charles correa created gaps in that tower. The two floors high loggias are created to keep out the sun and take in the cool sea breeze.

Program And Typology

The opening up of the apartments in the tower happens with a central core for vertical transport

CHARLES CORREA DESIGNED A CONCEPT WHICH REFERS IN THE UNITE D HABITATION OF LE CORB. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BOTH BUILDINGS IS THE OPENING UP. LE CORB USED HORIZONTAL CORRIDORS, CORREA CREATE A TOWER WITH ONLY 2 APARTMENTS ON EACH FLOR. HE USED A CENTRAL VERTICAL CORE FOR THE OPENING UP.

Material And Colour

• With its concrete construction and large areas of white panels, it bears a strong resemblance to modern apartment buildings in the west.

• However, the garden terraces of Kanchenjunga apartments are actually a modern interpretation of a feature of the traditional Indian bungalow: the veranda.

• In a bungalow, the veranda wraps the main living area

• The color expert says that the quality of sunlight, climate and culture influence color choices: hence one would observe a preference for blue and its shades in the west while in India and other Asian countries one finds a pre dominance of reds and yellows

White panels and concrete construction Bears a strong resemblance to a modern building while the terrace garden give a look of that of a traditional bungalow Overlooking the city from garden terrace
