About the Architect
In his professional practice, he has achieved to make buildings without any cement or steel; preventing tonnes of carbon emissions from polluting the environment by using traditional construction materials like mud, unburnt bricks, lime, bamboo, local timber, terracotta roof tiles and local stone to build the structures.
An avid believer in learning and passing the knowledge to the younger generation of students, many of his students have now started their own practice in the field of eco-sensitive architecture.
He has been affiliated with various schools in Mumbai as a visiting faculty and has conducted hands-on workshops in various institutions with the aim to propagate his learning.
