Of many "experimental" works, in which the Hindu and the Islamic traditions had combined to create something novel is the interesting example of the 'Hava Mahal' (the Palace of the Wind) at Jaipur.
Here an extraordinary experiment has been made to create a building suited to the hot, dry climate of Rajasthan, by making the entire facade a perforated screen by creating over fifty slightly raised pavillions, each a half oriel window, as it were, to allow little breeze to waft through those hundreds of perforated jali windows.
These half raised pavilions are covered by little domes and curvilinear roofs, whilst the openings are arch shaped.
These are probably inspired by the tiers of small shikharas rising one above the other, of Bhubaneswar or Tanjore.
