Charles Correa is a famous India architect. He was famous for using concrete and rejected the cold steel/ glass concept of urban modernism. He often used open courtyards with no ceilings and used a traditional cultural style of architecture.  Jawahar Kala Kendra is a muli purpose arts center located in Jaipur India.  This architectural design is very pleasing to the eye and the open ceiling concept is very freeing to look at. I think I would find this courtyard to be quite relaxing to sit in.
