Architecture + Design - October 2023 - The Luxury Edition

في هذه القضية

For our cover feature, we spoke to the minds behind this behemoth of a project Surat Diamond Bourse — Sonali and Manit Rastogi. While the design is something we all knew about, this conversation revealed the process that went behind designing an office space for not an individual or an organisation but a community. What stood out was the democratic approach to design, and their commitment to sustainability. In that sense, the Surat Diamond Bourse sets a benchmark for sustainable and responsible building practices. Yet another compelling read is Ankita Rathod’s feature on collaborations in design. Through her feature, she captures that magic that ensues when two or more creative minds collaborate to create something new, in a completely different typology. And for those looking for interesting gifts for the festive season, Kashish has done half your job! Finally, we take you to some of the most stylish and opulent spaces in the country and beyond. With this Issue we are thrilled to present the first edition of Architecture+Design Young Icons. It’s time to celebrate the future of design, isn’t it?
