Sultan Tipu House

Sultan of Mysore in the late eighteenth century, whose long resistance against the East India Company's expansion in southern India ended at Srirangapatna in 1799 — a figure the subcontinent has never quite stopped writing about.

The house takes his name for the sheer refusal to yield: the idea that a boy is measured not by how easy his position is, but by how he defends it when it becomes hard.
