"India is predominately a country of a capriciously extreme climate. Here, the buildings not only provide habitats but a much needed respite from the extreme temperatures, dust and humidity. So the facades and roofing systems here are not merely about aesthetics or the face of the building but become an interface between the external and the internal. What comes inside as light but stays putside as heat. What flows through the openings as a breeze to provide ventilation but keeps the dust outside. What provides shade and insulation yet lets the building breathe keeping the internal air quality healthy. It's not constant nor it is a variable based on patterns but an organic requisite of paradoxes."
