Kanchrapara, West Bengal
Bimal Saree Center
Pleated facade, inspired by the folds of a saree
The Bimal Saree Centre, designed by Kham Consultants, is set to redefine Kanchrapara’s retail landscape with a contemporary yet culturally rooted architectural expression. Inspired by the pleats of a sari, its façade features rhythmic vertical fins that create a dynamic interplay of light and shadow while optimizing natural ventilation and shading.
By day, the design evokes the delicate folds of a draped saree; by night, illuminated fins transform the structure into a glowing landmark. The spacious interiors, enhanced by expansive glass panels, ensure seamless connectivity between the retail space and the bustling streetscape.
Beyond aesthetics, the Bimal Saree Centre is envisioned as a vibrant retail hub celebrating India’s textile heritage while embracing modern efficiency. With its bold design and cultural symbolism, it aims to become an iconic destination, merging tradition with contemporary urban sensibilities.
