Reviews on architectural Aesthetics of NIFT Kannur

 

Comparing with the peers all around India, NIFT Kannur having a very unique kind of architecture claiming total freedom from the Ahemdababd School of Architecture which is much inspired from the oldest Bauhaus school of design, where the aesthetic composition is made out of multilevel and interlocked structures based on geometrical shapes.

The architecture of NIFT Kannur engages space, structure and color to create a symbolic whole. It has supreme quality within its context, where it’s sharing an axial relationship with constructivism movement which was closely related to another modern art movement named suprematism, which sought "to liberate art from the ballast of the representational world." Constructivist art is characterized by a total abstraction and an acceptance of everything modern. It is often very geometric, it is usually experimental, and is rarely emotional.

The best of part of the architecture is the influence of Vaastu sastra which combines all the five elements of nature and balances them with the person and the material. It takes advantage of the benefits bestowed by the five elements of nature to create a congenial academic and working environment thereby facilitating spiritual well-being and paving the way for enhanced Growth, prosperity and peace.

The front Entrance is built in a way that creates the ambience felt by getting the best impression with the fascinating visual of the main building and this is also very unique entity when comparing with the entrances of other NIFT centres. The entire built in space, pathways and even exits seems to be very ergonomically molded promoting highest possible synchronization with human-material interaction.

Kudos to the architect Mr. Riyas Muhammed of Indio Architects whose magical fingers on converting a generation’s dream into a reality.

Pythal Mala- The Uunexplored Trekking/Camping Spot in Kannur -Kerala , The Gods Own Country

Pythal Mala requires trekkers to undertake a arduous 6 kms trek to reach the zenith of the hill. The peak which is situated 4500 feet above the sea level, could give one the view which will remain in memory for a lifetime. The spectacular flora and fauna enroute through which the traveller will have to wade to reach the zenith will make the trek adventurous to the core.

The place located in Kannur district, can be visited during the cool months of January to April. One will also get a feel of the moist mountain wind before the onset of the monsoons in June.

Abundant in flora and fauna, this place is now being developed as a hill resort. One has to trek 6 kms to reach the top of the hills. There is a proposal to set up a zoo at the top of the hill.

The enchanting hill station offers a challenging trek to those inclined to stretch their legs. Trekkers are rewarded by a profusion of exotic flora and fauna and an exhilirating view from the top.


The 300 acre wide sprawling area is a safe home to numerous birds, hundreds of butterflies, rare plants and trees. Even during this sweltering summer at Paithal Mala one can relish a real cool climate. En route to the top of the hill one can see the remains of the run down palace of the tribal king called Vaithalkon.
