Merlin oikyo experience centre (uthonbari) - Vol.87(6), June - Mumbai The Indian Institute of Architects 2022 - 66-73p.
With the ever-increasing urban population in and around
Kolkata, the pressure of mass housing in the suburban areas
around the metropolitan is also increasing. The project Oikyo
(unity in Bengali) developed by the Merlin Group is one
such condo-ville with an array of G + 4 buildings for Bengali
middle-class households. Situated amidst the quaint town of
Baruipur, the Oikyo Experience Centre looks to bring back the
Colonial aura. The theme of the project was old Kolkata.
It was envisioned that the club would remain at the heart
of the complex serving as a place of interaction, as well as
hold social and cultural programs which are so essential in
a Bengali lifestyle. The client required it to be an experience
centre that would eventually be converted into a club for the
housing society.
