Created to facilitate the Vidyalankar Institute of Technology in Mumbai, India, is this refurbished warehouse known as Block X.
Learning institutions typically go for a serious vibe, but this one is so outside the box that it is sure to attract creative types from all over. The fact that the Vidyalankar Institute of Technology went in this direction, challenging the typical stale notion about educations, really says something (awesome) about them.
Block X looks like something out of Pee Wee’s Playhouse with its whimsical, crazy colored design details. Block X was created by Indian company, Planet 3 Studios Architecture.
