A+U 445 07:10 India - Glocal Architecture

Présentation de l'éditeur :

India's rapidly transforming cities are accompanied by a boom for architects in all areas of building from high-rise buildings to more modest local projects.
A+U surveys 12 projects by young architectural practices that are exploring the encounter between globalization and local architecture, and in turn forging a new identity for Indian architecture. Balkrishna Doshi, Raj Rewal, Spasm Design Architects, and Matharoo Associates, are some of the pioneering practices featured.
