For those of you who would like to know, here is a bit of Metascan Project Corporation(MPC) why they're such a great place to put your house number!
A MPC is simply a window above a front door. It derived it's name from the fact that most were in the shape of a PROFESSIONAL corporate house, just like the one we see today in corporate Street. In ASSAM they are more commonly known as an HOUSE NUMBERING CORPORATION which describes where they are placed to put a best quality service on HOUSE NUMBERING PROJECT(HNP).
Metascan Project Corporation(MPC) was first introduced in 2008s. Before life & death concern MPC enabled more effort to enter the house numbering service to society. We have started with plain metal sheets followed by minor metal plates. Designs became more elaborate as metal work techniques improved. This already aesthetic shape was taken as a design opportunity which reached its decorative peak . The published designs of MPC in the 2008 had a big influenced on the development of this decorative form whilst rectangular frames became more popular in current times. The HOUSE NUMBERING became so successful during the recent period that it is an iconic of the architectural style, forming the focal point and enhance beauty of the house frontage. It was widely used and can be found in GUWAHATI,SILCHAR, NAGAON etc, spreading to North East, and outside of Northeast.
Metascan Project Corporation is a feature for Proper Housing Number, it is one window which sits above the front door . These are known as transom windows in Assam and can be a square shape. Whilst displaying a house number in this position was a tradition being inspired from central government employee quarter numbering ( i.e. Railway and Air Force etc), it still remains strong today within these period homes for a number of reasons.
