The New Architecture & Design campus for MAHE was built on a dense contoured land of 3.9 acres with a vision to create interwoven and fluid spaces. The campus is planned for 1200 students from the field of Architecture, Design, and Fashion. Located in the coastal town of Manipal in Karnataka, mother ship of Manipal Academy of Higher Education Institutes.

The design originated from the strong topographical site- context. The site had a major slope of 18m towards the South-East side at a mere distance of 100m, facing the valley. Working with a 10mx10m grid, the building blocks were stepped down to have undisturbed views of the valley while also respecting the existing contours.
