Architecture + Design - January 2023

In this issue

This Issue is dedicated to spaces, concepts and plans that address the need to change. Innovation is not just about technology, innovation is about finding the best solution with respect to the situation, and with the means available. Going back to what Vinu Daniel, who adheres to the Gandhian philosophy of building within five-mile radius, says,“Unfortunately when I looked within my five-mile radius, all I found was waste. And so I started building with waste.” In this Issue, we feature architects who have made a difference with their innovative thinking, and spaces that are prototypes for the future.
