Collaborative Commentary On Conserving Heritage

Cut to 2006, with two years of work experience in the field after having completed a Masters of Architectural Conservation from SPA in Delhi in 2004, I found myself at the door of Abha’s office on Carter Road, giving an interview to work with one of the most talked about conservation architect. An aspiration to work with her, turned out to be the most inspirational and rewarding ten years of my life, being part of Team ANLA where I grew from a young Conservation Architect to the Director, Conservation. I found myself, sometimes walking behind Abha, at times with her, occasionally stumbling and then up again, with her right behind me. I could not have asked for better support from Abha after my return to the office from my maternity leave, bringing my son to work every single day, pursuing my passion alongside the joys of motherhood.

Smart Urban Design Statement

Imagine an abode premeditated for a family of three generations (and a probable fourth in the near future). ‘Never-Apart-ment’ is located in a dense layout of the new development engulfing the city of Hyderabad. The architects of this project Baba Sashank and Vindhya Guduru, the founders of Spaceficition Studio, masterminded the primary outcome of the concept that will be overcoming the drawbacks of a vertical settlement. The sole aim behind this ‘home-sweet-home’ was to keep the social interaction between the family members alive. The form generated is a direct consequence of this, the context and the brief.
