The Newtown School Kolkata featured by CNN International in the Future Cities of Asia
Newtown High School in Kolkata, India. Covered in letters of the alphabet and other academic-related symbols, the building has affectionately been dubbed the "A-B-C-D School".
    Its futuristic appearance is a visualization of the innovation that Chaudhuri hopes will take place every day inside the building.
    Sunil Agarwal, founder and director of Newtown High School, says the biggest challenge in India is to ensure that kids enjoy going to school.
    An attractive building is just one part of achieving that goal.
    "We thought that we should have a curriculum in which the learning is hands-on. We'll meet our challenges by improving upon the technology part of it. We are very focused on use of technology in the school. And that we are doing very effectively," he tells CNN.
