The 10-year carrier path till date, between India and in Chicago, has strengthened my belief in the socio-cultural response of a building as the most fundamental responsibility of an architect. How does a built environment nurture human relationships and build connections, physical as well as psychological with the human mind? Studying at SAIC helped me challenge my comfort zone and broaden my approach to design through inter-disciplinary ideas emphasizing on research and collaboration. Materials explorations performed during the course of learning has raised my architectural understanding as a potential ‘maker’.
