The Substation
The gateway to IFBE
Abutting Calicut Street, the old substation has been faithfully and innovatively restored and now forms a visual gateway to the central courtyard and The Cathedral beyond.
The gable roof not only allows diffused light to filter into this space but also reveals views of the landmark chimney.


The Substation, the gateway to IFBE, is perfect for smaller displays or to introduce a larger exhibition being held inside.

Design Details

The Approach
Independent access from Calicut Street via elegant French wooden doors

The Thread
The space visually connects Calicut to Cochin street and
looks ahead to a majestic banyan tree in the courtyard.

The Entrance
Giant cooling coils, once used to manufacture ice, are preserved under the glass, giving the
space a museum-like quality.

The Substation
The first of IFBE’s diverse exhibition spaces, the Substation is defined by its lineal space, red brick walls and charming Mangalore-tiled gable roof.
