It has always been my belief that when an architect develops anything for himself, regardless of whether it is a desk, a home, or an office, he considers it to be the finest design he has ever created, and I don’t see why he wouldn’t feel that way. When it comes to Sourabh Gupta, he has gone one step further and released a complete book about his work space, which he has written with the same level of enthusiasm as the construction itself! For a fledgling practice, this definitely requires guts, in addition to having faith in the job that you are doing. The book discusses both the studio architect and the architect himself, but I have never had the opportunity to meet Sorabh or to visit this pretty fancy office. However, the book does discuss both of these things. the manner in which the various sections of the book are divided, in addition to light, volume, and other such things, it speaks about his romanticization of various building materials such as brick, stone, concrete, glass, steel, and so on, as they are expressed in abundance in several segments of the structure from both the inside and the outside. The form and space of the building, which may have been influenced by the works of Mario Bota, particularly the detached and exposed brick circular service core or the long multiple book shelves against glass facade, as seen in Tadao Ando’s compact office, are something that one begins to wonder about at some point. Additionally, the book highlights the satisfaction of a symbolic collection of objects produced by great designers. For example, the book has chairs designed by Herman Miller and Rietveld, a perpetual calendar designed by Gideon Dagan, and even dinnerware designed by Zaha Hameed. The book is laid out in a huge square style, and it has a few articles written by friends as well as outstanding printing of images of practically every aspect of the building, including its location in the middle of a heavily crowded neighborhood. It is possible that this book is a message about how future architectural practices in India may develop, and it is surely an inspiration to any architect who is interested in constructing a working environment that is indicative of a huge developing practice that extends beyond a typical studio. As of right now, I am looking forward to a coffee-table book that is comparable to this one on the works of architects, which are conceived from this form. publishers: rupa publication At a price of Rs. 2795/-, it can be purchased via Flipkart and Amazon. Nitin Killawala is a seasoned architect who has been working in the field for more than three decades. His distinctive selling proposition is a robust architectural vocabulary that is not reliant on any add-ons. With regard to chiseling gaps, he is an expert.
