Bharat Bhavan 2020 - Discovering Indian culture through architecture
Registration Deadline: Tuesday, Jan 7, 2020
Submission Deadline: Friday, Jan 17, 2020
The first commission of this vision went to Architect Charles Correa where he was endowed with the responsibility to design the first ever Bharat Bhavan, in Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh). It provided space for contemporary expression, thought, quest and innovation for creative pursuits grass rooting from the rural to urban areas...If we could ever implement this vision where every state could have a Bharat Bhavan in the context of today, how would it be? How would its design speak of the newer interpretations and aspirations of its people, its culture, its daily life?
