VR Mall in Anna Nagar stands as one of Chennai’s most recognisable lifestyle and cultural destinations. Designed by the architectural firm Broadway Malyan, the building’s striking façade draws inspiration from the towering temple Gopurams of Tamil Nadu and the vibrant geometry of the Madras Check.
To bring this vision to life, TPRS Glass supplied specialised coloured glass solutions processed using its advanced ceramic printing technology. The façade features five distinct colours arranged in varying panel sizes across the North, East, West, and South entrances. These colours were created using TPRS Innovink ceramic screen printing, where each shade is precisely applied and then heat-treated. The ceramic inks fuse permanently into the glass surface, ensuring long-lasting brightness, UV stability, and weather-resistant performance throughout the building’s lifespan.
TPRS Glass’s solution not only delivered the desired aesthetic richness but also provided a sustainable, low-maintenance, and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional cladding materials.
Developed by Virtuous Retail and awarded LEED Gold certification, VR Mall stands today as a contemporary landmark where culture and innovation intersect. With a focus on delivering bold visual identity through durable, high-performance glazing, TPRS Innovink ceramic screen printing brings together design expression and long lasting colour clarity on the iconic VR Mall façade.
