Driving Thoughts

Addressal of the phenomena of migration, motion, disturbance of soaking in the ecological constraints is the first step to the recognition of the concern of the submerging city


Fitting City Locally and globally, is an emergent pattern on that Lewis Mumford aptly described as an organic development with discernible boundaries


Blurring the Boundaries
Convention is a mere validation of an existing thought process of lines that are inscribed so hard that we don’t let the boundaries, disappear.
Topology and the built are considered as two entities and exist as independent layers. The interdependence of these layers cannot be ignored but need to be addressed and optimized. Architecture has to adopt the philosophy of Interaction versus Isolation. The underlined criteria being integration of land, water, resources and infrastructure
Hence this demands for the Blurring of the Boundaries.
Blurring the boundaries of the site and the built would be beneficial for utilizing the natural edges, contextual conditions, biological bounties as catalysts and not as constraints.


Architecture is an adaptive and not an additive system

• Evolution of architecture from that of being an object to a module of life, a system that not merely creates a shelter or protects life but architecture that integrates the structural and behavioral intelligence of a life form.
• Architecture that grows from the landscape and is not implanted
At a Micro level the scenario is that of treating architecture and landscape as an “Evolutionary paradigm”
