Indian Navy is a symbol of strength and technology of the country at sea. The memorial explores not just the horizontality but also the verticality of spaces. The major axis of the memorial lies along the north-south axis and the movement is directed towards north highlighting its importance. 
Lighthouse architecture was taken as an inspiration not just to provide navigational aid by a functional lantern room but also establishing its presence in the middle of the Arabian sea.
It stands for their strength, determination, perseverance, courage and dauntlessness with high regard for their country and its safety.
