The proposed building adopts a square geometry, directly


responding to the plot’s near-square shape. This intentional
alignment helps minimize negative spaces, ensuring optimal site
utilization and efficient circulation. The basic module is
composed of an enclosed space and a veranda.
Zoning: vertical segregation of spaces
Public zones – Ground floor –Wedding hall, lobby, reception,

The grid system has adopted to accommodate land use and functional
changes, constantly and effectively, with form, changes can be plugged in
to the existing infrastructure with minimal difficulties. A rectilinear
block is the most effective as it allows for maximum flexibility with the
least amount of surface availability.
