Abin Design Studio has designed the Bandhan Residential School of Business in Bolpur, India.

This project encourages micro initiatives to be turned into enduring assets by an unconventional take on traditional practices at the Bandhan Residential School of Business.

"Weaving a romance of the connection between the site and the architect, it represents that between sky and water," said Abin Design Studio. "There is material, which is Earth, and the architecture borrows from the contextual landscape to showcase the context it sits in."

As opposed to standing out from it, the design creates a frame to emphasise the natural views. Its form is conceived as masses and voids carved out of the mounds.

This project has been longlisted in the education project category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
