    Harrow Bengaluru shines at Loop Awards 2025

    MUMBAI: When it comes to building brilliance, Harrow International School Bengaluru has truly raised the roof. The school has clinched the Citation award for Educational buildings at the Loop Design Awards 2025, outshining over 550 entries from 49 countries.

    Designed by CP Kukreja Architects, the campus marries heritage, ecology, and modern learning spaces. From airy classrooms and performance halls to sprawling sports arenas, every corner flows seamlessly into landscaped courtyards, creating an environment that inspires curiosity and community. The design draws on the 450-year legacy of Harrow School in the UK, giving the first Harrow-branded school in India a distinctive global identity.

    Sustainability is at the heart of the campus, featuring rainwater harvesting, bioswales, natural ventilation, shaded walkways, and locally sourced materials. These eco-conscious strategies earned the campus a USGBC platinum rating, positioning Harrow Bengaluru as a benchmark for sustainable educational design worldwide.

    Board of Governors chairman Aseem Chauhan said, “This award reflects our belief that learning flourishes where heritage meets modernity, where sustainability is a way of life, and where spaces themselves inspire curiosity and community.”

    The Loop Design Awards celebrate global excellence in architecture, interiors, and product design. Harrow Bengaluru’s recognition places it firmly in the international spotlight as a model for the future of educational spaces.

    Harrow International School Bengaluru continues to carry forward its 450-year legacy of British education while weaving Indian traditions and global perspectives, nurturing students ready to lead with courage, honour, and fellowship on a 60-acre campus designed to inspire.
