Focusing on the spiritual dimension of professing architecture, the Walton Program proposes that architecture can and should assist the spiritual growth of humanity in the service of tackling both our urgent and enduring challenges.
The book, Spirituality in Architectural Education addresses many important philosophical, disciplinary, pedagogic, and practical questions. Grounded on the twelve-year-old Walton Critic Program at the Catholic University of America School of Architecture and Planning, this book offers solid arguments and insightful reflections on the role that “big questions” and spiritual sensibility ought to play in the architectural academy today.

Architect Gautam Bhatia reviews the book, ‘Sen Kapadia: In Pursuance of Meanings’, edited by Pinkish Shah.
Edited by Nayantara Patel and designed by Rukminee Guha Thakurta, the book conveys an inextricably linked synergy between Ramu Katakam’s life and work.
The Architecture Travelogues, by Edgar Demello, are a compilation of diverse forays into familiar as well as uncharted terrain. By train, bus, by foot and bicycle and at times with a hitchhiker’s board. They are based on notes and sketches as well as on recall. In the reconstructions, reality often meets fiction, creating a map that is partly an imprint and partly ephemeral. The accretive experiences of people, places, and cultures were akin to life’s finishing school.
The book on Ramu Katakam is important for two reasons: first and foremost, it is a truthful rendition of architecture as an evolutionary process in an architect’s life; and second, it is the most forthcoming, unguarded, agile and direct form of writing, expressed without fear of judgment.
Introduction from the book: Spaces in Time, A Life in Architecture, authored by Ramu Katakam
