| MEMORIAL COMPLEX FOR THE BHOPAL GAS TRAGEDY by Kritika Dhupar |
When it
comes to discovering latent talent in the world of design and architecture, the
biennial Archiprix International awards beats them all!
Sensitivity
is the key premise that comes forth as we view the plethora of projects vying
for the Archiprix International Award 2016 – the competition that selects the
World’s best graduation projects. With over 380 entries world over, the
competition is tough to say the least!

| FORM DERIVATION BASED ON MORPHOGENESIS, CRICKET STADIUM by Omkar Prashant Bhagwat |
It is enlightening to review the kind of topics handpicked in the 31
entries from Indian students. From an art centre, music academy and spiritual
lab… conventional functionality takes on a new garb with young minds ticking on
rehabilitation of mental patients, deaf and blind to an orientation centre for
sainthood; memorial centre, even strengthening a human-nature connection.
