The triaxial field is event centre designed on the Sabarmati river Front as a part of the river front event centre. the project is a reimagination of Steven Holl’s design. The Primary idea of the project was to create a event centre that can accommodate multiple scales of event simultaneously. the building anchors itself on towards south towards the stage and west towards the Tagore Holl tieing it the Holl’s initial ideas. The building is a tri-axis Space frame which carries forward the geometry of the primary design, further this structure is treated to cater to the changing climate of Ahmedabad as well as cover various aspects of design principles and architectural expression. Building opens itself towards the east overlooking the river. The lawn around the building merges with the courtyards acting as the extension spaces. All the functions are pushed in the basement giving a seamless ground level to conduct event.
