Mumbai, India
sP+a, the Mumbai practice headed by Sameep Padora, has enlarged a small children’s library for Sharda School in Kopargaon, a town in the largely rural Indian state of Maharashtra. Its complex undulating roof is inspired in the brick tile vault techni
Drawing inspiration from the idea of a grove of trees, the paivlion is built with slender wooden footings holding up an inclined roof, which creates a microclimate of shade.
Carried out on a very tight budget and with the help of the participation of the local population, the project takes the structure of traditional Hindu temples as reference.
