About Tab 복합용도 건물
탭(Tab)은 인도 서벵골주 두르가푸르에 위치한 복합용도 건물이다. 탭은 5성급 호텔, 오피스, 리테일 시설, 공용 주차장을 하나의 구조물에 통합했다. 출입구를 분리해 각 이용자 그룹의 동선이 겹치지 않도록 했다. 설계는 비슈누푸르의 사원들과 샨티니케탄 캠퍼스에서 영감을 얻었다. 파사드의 일부는 테라코타로 마감했으며, 시집 『기탄잘리』의 시구를 내후성 강판에 새겨 동측 하부 입면에 배치했다. 건물은 전면기초(래프트 기초) 위에 세워진 철근콘크리트 프레임이 지지한다. 고성능 유리를 사용해 일사 취득을 억제했다.

Behind the Design

- Unique Properties
- The Tab is inspired by traditional art and architecture of its culturally rich surroundings namely temples of Bishnupur and Shantiniketan. It has obtained Igbc Platinum Rating (core & shell category). It is located in the city centre of Durgapur, an industrial and mining town in east India . It is developed in Public Private Partnership model with the government of West Bengal .
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The building has double basements and close neighboring buildings with shallow foundations. The use of sheet piles was avoided due to time and budgetary constraints. This led to phase wise execution of the basement. The length of the building (84m) required an expansion joint considering the weather conditions. The box rim fabricated with MS and fibre cement board was added towards the end of the project, and became the most challenging task due to scaffolding requirement.

- Production Technology
- We have used conventional RCC frame structure with raft foundation due to the unique soil condition. Part of the structure is MS and attached with the RCC structure. A second skin of fibre cement board is used on the shorter facades. Coreten steel is used on the lower facade of the hotel to add an element of timelessness for the verses of the poems. A high performance glass is used to optimize daylight and cut down on solar gain.
- Design Challenge
- A balance between the diversified requirements, like a five star hotel, office premises, retail outlets and public parking were to be achieved. An attempt is made to go beyond this and enhance the streetscape in its vicinity.
Re accommodating overhead city power transmission lines going along the length of plot on both sides underground. The width to depth ratio was 1:3.5. The stringent building bye laws along with a maximum permissible height of 50 meters with high Far at 4.5. After accommodating transmission lines underground there was practically no place for water tank, Stp , earthing pits. Even the back up generators , transformers , gas bank etc had to be adjusted in an innovative way. - Research
- The research started by conducting a study tour of the Bishnupur temples, campus of Shantiniketan and the tribal area of Purulia. Bishnupur inspired the artwork, form of the building & use of Terracotta. Artists from Shantiniketan were used to create the stainless steel sculpture, bronze statue & some other artworks in glass. Shantiniketan also inspired the use of verses of Nobel prize winning poem ‘ Gitanjali’ on the lower facade.
- Inspiration
- The Architect’s vision was to draw inspiration from the historical and culturally rich region and transcend it into architectural expressions of modernism. This in a way is symbolic of the development and progress this industrial city is making. The architectural solution was to create the Box , representing a modernist and progressive
approach suitable for the purpose & "fill it with art and terracotta works." The use of Terracotta on the facade and the Gitanjali verses on the lower part of the eastern face result from this concept. - Project Duration
- The project started in September 2014 in Durgapur, West Bengal and completed in September 2018
- Operation Flow
- There were multiple end users namely - occupants of 5 star hotel, office goers at lower floors, retailers & their customers on ground floor & visitors to the city centre who use the public parking in the basement. All these occupants were segregated with the help of various entry / exit points. Besides this, there is also a service entry hidden from the general visitor. Each of them have been carefully planned to give a unique user experience keeping the functionality in mind.
