Bangalore based architect Edgar Demello remembers B.V.Doshi
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.
Our work looks at the shifting, fluid and the negotiable rather than the fixed, static and rigid. This view cultivates design that is infrastructural and catalytic, setting in motion materials and habitations that resonate beyond the scale of intervention on a given site. ~ Anuradha Mathur.
Stay inspired. Curious.
