An Annexe Anew
Inside Outside
|May 2019
Architect Bipratip Dhar, Epsilon Architecture, Kolkata, and his design team transformed the annexe of Dalhousie Institute into a warm and welcoming recreation centre.

At the Delhi Durbar of 1911, in one of the best-kept secrets of British India history, King George announced the transfer of the ‘seat of the Government of India’ from Calcutta, now Kolkata, to Delhi. The unexpected shift shocked the residents of the Kolkata that had been the capital of British India since 1772, been regarded as the second city of the British Empire after London, and had developed as a city of culture, business and administration graced with majestic buildings, gardens, and broad roads.
Over a hundred years have passed since that fateful move, yet the core of Kolkata retains the grace of an imperial city in its buildings, some with a patina of the passage of time; in its heritage museums and academic institutions; its roots anchored in culture; and its cosmopolitan populace. Among the many institutions with a historic past is the Dalhousie Institute whose annex recently underwent a complete makeover by the design team of Epsilon Architecture, headed by principal architect Bipratip Dhar. And it emerged as Indoors@DI, a warm and welcoming recreation center, a wonderful synopsis of the city straddling old-world charm and a modern style.
