Located in the area of Vijayanagar, in the Indian city of Toranagallu, the Hampi Art Labs complex evokes the forms of the neaby Tungabhadra River and the surrounding hills. Using stone, clay, brick, and cement, the project’s spaces flow between curving volumes to accommodate workshops, studios, and artists’ accommodations, in addition to an exhibition gallery, an amphitheater, and a café. With accessible planted roofs, Hampi Art Labs seeks to foster creative thought, collaboration, and experimentation.
