Samvaad - Personae through Landscape

The project aims to weave a dialogue within the campus considering the two buildings as two distinct personas according to their form, context, and art they hold within. The landscape itself is crafted to act as a narrative medium that expresses the ongoing dialogue between these architectural personas. It is in the selection and placement of plants, the choice and texture of materials, and the design of spaces that this interaction is choreographed. These spaces are crafted not only for functionality and aesthetics but also to enhance the perceptual and emotional engagement with the architectural forms. By manipulating spatial sequences, views, and transitions, the landscape can control the narrative pace and intensity. In essence, this project transcends traditional landscape design by embracing a deeper, more narrative-driven approach that considers architecture not just as physical space but as a participant in an ongoing story.
