A cultural landmark celebrating Kerala art traditions through bold architectural form.

The Trivandrum Art Museum stands as a cultural beacon in the heart of Kerala’s capital. Spanning 12,000 sq.m across three interconnected volumes, the museum houses permanent and rotating exhibitions of contemporary South Asian art.

The design draws inspiration from the geometric patterns found in traditional Kerala mural paintings, translating them into a striking facade of perforated concrete screens that filter tropical sunlight into ethereal interior galleries.
