To me, The Tote evokes visions of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Elvish architecture found in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy. Ethereal and magical with a strong tie to nature, The Tote in Mumbai is absolutely gorgeous.
Designed by Serie Architects, The Tote is a banquet hall, restaurant and bar. This structure works in perfect harmony with its surroundings. Visit DesignBoom.com for more images and information.
