Sohra Culture & Experience Centre, design study

A cultural destination organised around water, performance and a public street. Roof forms draw on the Khasi knup, bringing local references into a contemporary ensemble of galleries, gathering spaces and hospitality.

A cultural landscape

The masterplan connects the arrival sequence to performance venues, exhibition spaces and the cultural street.

Architecture shaped by rain

Layered roofs and sheltered edges frame the water and extend the public route through the site.

Performance & exhibition

The auditorium and galleries bring different scales of public gathering into the same cultural campus.

The cultural street

A continuous frontage gives the market and pedestrian spaces a shared architectural language.

After dark

Light draws out the roofs, colonnades and water edges.
