19.  The common lawn shared by La and BM_BT dept is a good interactive space and the trees and
landscaping provides good microclimate for both the building. But during high peak of the day its not
been used, so proper landscaping with shades can be provided over there.
 The lawn in front of library with the tea stall(very good interactive space) , it even has rose garden and
some deciduous trees.
 The gardens between main building and the mechanical department creates a buffer between both the
blocks yet it keeps a visual connectivity.
 The trees around NCC ground provides aesthetics and shade to the main building but not for reducing
noise and smoke.
 The green spaces helps to decrease the surrounding temperature.
 The courtyard in all the dept can be properly maintained and landscaped to make it much more
interactive
 Seating can be placed in the common spaces
 Rows of trees can be there at the side of the road to provide shade and also a linear vista

the middle can be utilized as interactive space.
• North side is the classroom which is very good
• Recessed windows are there with thick wall, which is good as thermal mass. Thus provide
cool interior
• Because of the plantation in front of the dept, it keeps the inside cool
