Mimic Architecture

 The Permanent Mission of India to The UN, New York

Life Insurance Corporation, New Delhi

The contextual difference of the building designed by Charles Correa in New York and New Delhi is very stark. Even then the ideologies and the design of the building is similar, leading to the idea of Mimic Architecture. The building in New York suffices the requirements of the program but ends up being a set of ideas and spaces directly removed and placed from a building in New Delhi on to New York.
