SUKH NAGAR is a paradigm shift in the design approach for the institutional care of children. It not provides an environment which understands the physical and social context in which children of our world live, but takes a step further to give then an interface where they get an opportunity to interact with their peers, community and the right to participate in the society.

The project is not limited to providing living, educational and other facilities to the children of the complex only, but invites the surrounding communities to participate and involve in the spirit of social integration, thus making an effort to bridge the gap that exists in our society between the children under the slogan of “growing up in orphanages” and the other children living with their families. Thus, the goal of SUKH NAGAR is to acknowledge the need of children to develop from an interaction between inner drives and external environmental conditions. It has aimed to design such environment of the complex which instead of imposing regulated spaces for the children; give them an opportunity to experience a gradual expansion of the context around them, from the intimate recess of the room to the infinite world outside, from silence to sound, from the controlled light of a room to the light of day, from the confines of one’s own thoughts to the sharing of the thoughts.
