Sufi Yoga hall in Pune, Koregaon Park

This client, himself a Sufi-Yoga-Master, wanted a hall which was formerly used for storage of a restaurant converted to his Yogahall. As he derives from the Sufi lineage, he wanted this hall designed in Sufi style. As domes are one of the favourite shapes in Sufism it should be included as a main image of the hall.

From his former restaurant he brought oriental accessories (hanging lamps and oil lamps) which he collected from all over India to be implemented in the design.

The left side of the hall shows the dome shapes in form of paintings with different yoga postures

Two big dome niches in the back wall and smaller diamond shaped and square sized niches at both sides have been built in the walls. Together with the metallic copper-colour it demarks this area as the focal point of the hall. From here the yoga-master will demonstrate for his classes.

The right side of the hall repeats the domes shapes, but here in a downward position in order to balance the two sides of the hall.
