The architectural image of the design was influenced by the traditional architecture of the Charminar monument.
The architectural language comprises of free forms and fluid lines, metaphorically reminding of the Musi river dividing the city of Hyderabad and of the Lotus flower forms.
The city of Hyderabad has its own individual character, which is evident in the beautiful, ancient palaces and the equally modern, and state-of-the-art offices and buildings.
The early architecture style of the city is known as the Qutb Shahi style so named after its initial rulers whose reign approximately coincided with that of the great Mughals that built Humayun’s Tomb, Fatehpur Sikri and finally the Taj Mahal. The architectural ancestors of the Qutb Shahis were the Bahmanis who built the Gol Gumbad at Bijapur and several exquisite tombs at Bidar
