Yet another example of renewable spaces. An old yarn manufacturing unit built in late sixties is converted into one of the most advanced and perhaps the largest pharma research center in the country. All lab areas are around the main entry connected by serene and shallow water body, Cafeteria, library and auditorium are a part of this space. Primary colours, pure geometry and glazed partitions give a contemporary space feel. The research center was inaugurated by our President Dr .Abdul .J. Kalam in Nov 2004.
