VERNACULAR ARCHITECTURE OF INDIA: Traditional Residential Styles & Spaces ATCHITECTURE AUTONOMOUS 
 ₹4,500; 544 pages

This seminal book on the vernacular architecture of India by T.S. Randhawa, published by Gerard da Cunha of Architecture Autonomous, comes at the opportune moment when the destructive stride of steel and glass buildings has gripped the world with its tantalising possibilities. The potential of vernacular architecture has been open to the designers of modern India from the time of Tagore to a great revival in the works of Laurie Baker, Nari Gandhi, Didi Contractor, to name a few. The book has broken new ground in the subject covering the length and breadth of India geographically. The book within its 546 pages of splendidly reproduced images accompanied by sparing yet pithy text will be a delight for the lay reader as well as the professional. A first of its kind, this book is a collector's item that challenges much of the modernist aspirations of those who produce and inhabit contemporary architecture.
