Looking something like a giant bubble caterpillar from outer space (use your imagination!), this unusual architectural style has the brilliant official name of Modern Blobitecture. It was designed by Balkrishna Vithaldas Doshi and houses artworks by MF Hussan. Much of the works have been painted directly onto the walls in a manner similar to cave paintings. Appropriately, it's within the grounds of the School of Architecture.
