About the Book | Images Publishing

This outstanding monograph delves into an exciting selection of esteemed
works by Morphogenesis, one of India's most creative architecture and design
firms and a world-leader in net zero energy and sustainable design. Another
successful addition to IMAGES’ Master Architect Series, this richly illustrated
book combines stunning imagery with comprehensive studies outlining the
firm’s strong philosophical discourse across a vast range of typologies:
residential; institutional; commercial; hospitality; offices; interiors; public; and
master planning. Morphogenesis reinterprets India’s architectural roots and
consistently employs passive design solutions for a unique contextual language.
The Morphogenesis journey is a reflection of a contemporary Indian
perspective within the global context, incorporating an inspired, forwardthinking
vision while respectfully referencing the spirit of traditional Indian
subcontinental architecture in innovative forms. This is a must-have book for
those looking to understand work at the vanguard of sustainable architecture.

“Around the world, architects are challenged to infuse new forms with the legacy of the past and the spirit of place. In an age of globalisation this has become a critical issue, especially in emerging nations that have embraced generic modernism in their race to catch up…. Morphogenesis abstracts the vernacular with no resort to mimicry, and it achieves sustainability by an intelligent use of traditional materials and techniques…” – Michael Webb, Architectural Critic and Founder, Archigram Group
