Cantilevered Upper Volume: A Research Institute Off the Ground

Design a research institute in the manner of Balkrishna Doshi's Institute of Indology — the precious manuscript collection carried in an upper concrete volume that cantilevers out over a recessed, shaded ground floor, lifting the archive clear of damp and heat and leaving the ground open. Compose a heavy overhanging upper storey in board-marked concrete supported on a narrower base, a deeply shaded open ground level with a sunken court, a projecting stair tower, dry lawn and a large tree, harsh sun with a black band of shade beneath the cantilever, low three-quarter view, 28mm lens, architectural photography, ultra photorealistic, 8K
