7LF / FESTIVAL ATLAS

The world beneath the world

The magic is cinematic.
The information is practical.

The flying campus is the entrance. Everything a visitor needs—events, programme, venues and official results—remains fast, searchable and readable below it.

A

Intaglio

Ideas

Cases, conversations and competitions for people who enjoy difficult questions.

B

Carpe Diem

Culture

Music, movement, theatre, words and the thrilling possibility of a full auditorium.

C

Games & sport

Play

Floodlit courts, lake-side runs and contests where the campus itself becomes the arena.

Places become stages

What appears
on the map.

Event markers will occupy their real venues as the 2026 programme is confirmed. This first atlas uses last year's event families without inventing artists or winners.

Asset accuracy / v0.5

What is measured.
What is imagined.

01

Ground truth

Campus boundary, 46 closed building ways, eight building multipolygon relations, 49 paths and four mapped water polygons come from current OpenStreetMap geometry, projected into local metres around 22.4447493, 88.2996716. The relation import includes LVH, Tata Hall, Tagore, Ramanujan, the Annexe, Old Academic Block and Executive Hostel. A separate, labelled satellite correction continues the eastern lake beneath the LVH bridge where OSM currently stops short.

02

Visual validation

Placement, lake continuity, the Auditorium footprint and forecourt, LVH's island landing, the bridge centre-line, the named central-lake Jetty pin and shore axis, CDPO / Innovation Park and MDC's stepped southern footprint were checked against Google Maps satellite imagery on 24 July 2026. IIM Calcutta's official ground panoramas and geotagged reference photography supply the elevations for MCHV, LVH, MDC, CDPO and the steel crossing.

03

Architecture

The Audi keeps its mapped footprint and photographed terracotta-and-glass façade. LVH now uses relation 3816622 as one connected eight-sided plan with both courtyard holes, four residential levels, canted concrete fins, cylindrical cores and an open island forecourt before the bridge landing. CDPO / Innovation Park keeps its full 20-point mapped trace, four white levels, window stacks and slatted court canopy. MCHV keeps mapped way 287417972 beneath the main seminarium; its two southern cones, Y-path, reservoir and utility block are positioned from the same satellite frame. MDC keeps way 287772826 and the photographed central spine. The LVH Tetrahedron follows mapped path 1131099791 and its published 43-metre, no-centre-support three-chord structure. The Jetty keeps the current white rails and ring-free deck described by campus evidence, while its floating platform, narrow gangway and black pontoons follow the historical aerial reference.

Art direction

Unpublished dimensions, individual trees, surface colours, festival lights and the floating camera path remain artistic approximations. They are never labelled as surveyed assets.
