Architecture as an anthorpological study
Posted on | September 24, 2008 | No Comments
We believe architecture is not about imposing ideas. It’s an organic process, its a transfusion. We believe that the essense of building in a culture, comes from living in a culture. Its not a technical process, it involves anthropological study. We have been living, farming, eating with the farmers in Harsar, so that our architecture blends in and gets accepted to the people. How many times have we seen technically superior and “contemporary” architecture that failes to get appropriated by the intended user?
