State Trading Corporation building (also known as Jawahar Vyapar Bhawan) in New Delhi, India, was designed by the architect Raj Rewal, and is home to the government-owned State Trading Corporation of India.
Built between 1976 and 1989, it is considered to be an important example of modernist architecture in post-Independence India.
[2] Rewal used elements from the Japanese Metabolism style, but departed from it by drawing inspiration from Mughal architecture, as seen in the polychromatic sandstone cladding, instead of concrete.
[3] The "structurally expressive" design employs Vierendeel trusses.
[4] Apart from offices, the building houses the Central Cottage Industries Emporium, a government-run store that retails Indian crafts products.
