This is largely motivated from the temple of "Dwarakaadeesh" but nowhere near to it.

Do you see those too many balconies.

if everything is a balcony, where is the wall for sculpture?

The speciality of Our temples is Sculpting the Episodes from Ithihasas & Puranas on their walls.

since it is Ram temple, Walls should be filled with Ramayana episodes.

that's how our temples were Wikipedia to common man.
By having balconies, scope for sculpture is nil.

Another beauty of our temples is proportionality.

GarbhaGriha and Mandapa are proportionally inter-related and then Shikhara and Mandapa are related.

this design contains no proportional values.
The Mandapa of temple should never exceed "SukaNasa" (Nose) of Shikhara. but here it has exceeded.

when this happens, the shikhara is over shadowed by Mandapas exactly whats happening in this design.
what brings beauty to temple is its intricate sculpture.

Hoysala temples are not huge but they command Jaw dropping appreciation from us due to its art work.

Chola temple though huge, have proportionately enlarged the sculpture too.

Sculpture is like an Inscription.
