Shri Balkrishna Doshi has left our world to continue his sojourn further. Creators never die; they are immortal through their creations. Doshi sahib had many spheres of creations to live by. In addition to architecture, he was a painter, writer, orator, teacher as well as institution builder. There are some who draw a circle and embrace you within the perimeter, while he remained a centre point, for you to draw a circle from where you stood, with him at its fulcrum. His ‘being’ in itself was the cause for many to exist, nourish or flourish.
