About 

Sarosh Anklesaria is an architect and educator, currently a Critic at the Yale School of Architecture. Sarosh runs an independent design and research practice in architecture. He has worked as an architect with Diller Scofidio + Renfro, NYC, Herzog & de Meuron, Basel, and B.V. Doshi, Ahmedabad. In addition to teaching at Yale, Sarosh has taught architecture at The School of Architecture at Taliesin (SOAT), Cornell University, The Pratt Institute, Syracuse University, and CEPT University in India. Sarosh is interested in an expansive notion of architectural agency, one that synthesizes architecture’s formal and tectonic capacities with questions of socio-ecological pertinence. Current design research projects consider agency across various scales and geographies. These include a proposal for an itinerant pavilion as an agent provocateur connecting the three built museums of Le Corbusier; as well as an ongoing investigation into the homologies between synanthropism, ecology, markets, urban informality and food.


In the past year alone, Sarosh's work has been supported by the Richard Rogers Fellowship from the Harvard Graduate School of Design (2019), the Taliesin Fellowship from the School of Architecture at Taliesin (2019), and the Art Omi Architecture Residency (2019).His writing, design projects and research have been published in a variety of media including The Architectural Review, Domus, Architect’s Newspaper and Design Today. He has juried on the architecture and design grants panel for the NY State Council of the Arts. Sarosh also co-founded Anthill Design a collaborative architecture practice based in India. He has a diploma in architecture from CEPT University, Ahmedabad, and a post-professional Master of Architecture from Cornell University.
