The general mission of UDHAVUM
KARANGAL to attend basic and emotional needs, is reflected with maximum number
of open and gathering courtyards displayed in a compassionate way.
Curved walls used on the entrance
makes it a welcoming element to invite and ease the functions of the individual
in a harmonious way.
The tall volume of spaces and the
light wells inside are designed specifically to foster visual connectivity to
all levels and to stream in natural daylight creating an interesting play of
light patterns throughout the day thus having a healing effect and a stress
relief for the infirms.
Smooth curling walls are used
with a splash of color to play wonderfully against the dramatic views making it
the foremost focal point and drawing towards the rooms beyond.
The slender exposed concrete
columns holding the bold masses creates a visual contrast to the white-painted
walls creating a sense of flow and energy aiding the open-plan feel of this
space
