Retracing IIMB.

Nolli’s Map is a two-dimensional plan used to understand the accessibility and flow of public space within a city.It is a figure-ground drawing, simply put, it shows contrast in relationships between positive and negative spaces, solids and voids, shadows and light.What happens when a technique that had been applied at an urban scale, is being applied at an Institutional scale?
Does this reveal any character of the institution?In an educational institution, where can one meet, greet, fight, play, hide and what not?

Could a monochromatic drawing give a glimpse into the culture that a design can manifest? Can it reveal how design can bring the spaces to life?

Tracing, in a design process evolves from generating the ideas for a plan to analysing a building through the plan.This drawing is an attempt to give a hindsight to the thoughts of the Pritzker prize-winning architect of Indian Institute of Management Bangalore.
