Lal Dera
Cloth architecture was among the most dramatic and colourful paraphernalia of princely life in the medieval world. Vast tented encampments accompanied the great monarchs of Asia and Europe on their long wars, vacations and pilgrimages. Portable, and often highly decorative, palaces of cloth afforded to the imperial entourages not only shelter and security but also the comfort and beauty to which they were accustomed. A magnificent example of medieval textile architecture is the historic Lal Dera, ‘red tent’ of Jodhpur (Marwar). It remains as the largest of all decorative objects to have survived from the Mughal era.
The Lal Dera is housed in the Mehrangarh Museum in Jodhpur, is the most iconic of them all.Taking inspiration from its historic design, we used the structuring idea of the original, the arch and the tensioned fabric but expanded it to take a formal direction of uninhibited scale. The opulence in our interpretation is an outcome of a soaring spatial experience.

JSW Odisha, Township Project
The approach to designing the industrial township housing, often referred to as housing colonies, diverges from the typical hierarchical spatial segregation commonly associated with such developments. Instead, a conscious decision is made to build only in open pockets within a verdant site. This strategic placement of built forms, articulated along the edge of the site, facilitates the creation of a continuous green central community space. This design intervention aims to erase hierarchies of user groups and social class, fostering a sense of inclusivity and community cohesion.
