THE PROJECT IS A PART OF THE AES WELLNESS CENTRE AND IS THE RECEPTION CENTRE. THE PROJECT STEMS FROM CERTAIN PARTS OF THE EXISTING STRUCTURE, LIKE THE  STABLE AND BULKY MASONRY CONSTRUCTION, WITH A CENTRAL HALL THAT HAS AN ELEGANT AND LIGHTWEIGHT MANGALORE ROOF ON IT, SUPPORTED BY KING POST TRUSSES. THE HEAVINESS OF THE MASONRY WALLS AND THE LIGHTNESS WITH WHICH THE MANGALORE ROOF SITS ATOP THE HEAVY WALLS IS TAKEN AS THE MAJOR ARCHITECTURAL IDEA AND IS EXPLORED TO ITS LIMIT.
