In 2010, students collaborated through several group charettes to design a much-needed Visitor Centre for the School. Using traditional Ladakhi mud-brick construction techniques, the Centre incorporates a greeting space with a corner window and seating area for serving tea; a gallery space for displaying artifacts, information about the school, and student artwork; and a custom built semi-transparent cabinet that divides the two rooms while providing additional display space. The gallery benefits from four skylights, which highlight the hand-made mosaic pattern inset into the floor. Other details include a hand-carved wooden bond beam, and an angled partition wall used to bounce light from the window far into the space.
