Ever-changing Forms – (allowing for flexibility in spaces to allow all users to make there own personal spaces). Appreciation of all will achieve goals and understanding (learning from others, valuing all- Celebrating Chennai as a cosmopolitan city).

Education as a priority and core of society. Using form to create interest (visual stimulation of the mind through shape, texture, and materials). Variety of people for an enriched environment (melting pot and emphasis on education).

People are the core of the community. Variety of uses for a cohesive community (the different land uses and functions of the community allow for people to get everything within and travel outside less often). Power from sun and wind, nourishment from rain and life from earth.
