Download or read book Journal of the Indian Institute of Architects written by Surinder Bahga and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-16 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian Institute of Architects (IIA) is the national body of Architects in India with more than 20,000 members. The history of IIA can be traced back to 1917 when it started at Sir JJ College of Architecture as the Architectural Students Association. It was renamed as The Bombay Architectural Association in 1922 as the activities of the Association showed steady progress. It was then, that members began to seriously consider an improvement in the status of the Association. It got affiliation to the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1925 and then became a full-fledged Indian Institute of Architects in 1929 having its headquarters at Mumbai. IIA is associated with the International Union of Architects (UIA), Commonwealth Association of Architects (CAA) and South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation of Architects. It is also registered under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860 as a voluntary organization. The founding members who set-up the Institute have left their footprints on the sands of Indian Architecture. The present generation of architects who now work for the prestigious Institute follow the footsteps of their predecessors. Not only it is a great challenge, but it is the responsibility of the office-bearers, the council members of IIA, and the executive committees of chapters/centres/sub-centres to steer the Institute to greater heights. IIA hosts two national events namely National Conference and Young Architects Festival every year in different cities and states of India. These events provide a platform to deliberate upon the various relevant issues concerning the profession. In April 1934 the first quarterly journal was published and since then it has continued to be one of the most important features of the Institute. Later the journal was published by IIA member, late Ar PJ Khambatta. After that Ar M Largo-Affonso took over and now it is being published by the Publication Board. Institute is grateful to the Editors, Ar HJ Bilimoria, from whose review for the Silver Jubilee these notes are gleaned, Ar MJP Mistri, JPJ Bilimoria, Ar Vina Mody and a host of others including Ar MM Vijayakar, Ar RD Sane, Ar KB Gatne, Ar AD Aroskar and the younger members of the Journal Committee for all their valuable help in keeping it going in spite of the mounting costs of paper and printing and other difficulties. The Journal is a big link with members spread out all over India and abroad. Continuing the trend, the publication board has been publishing the JIIA with Ar Vasant Ranade, Chairman of the Publication Board, and Ar Anil Nagrath and Ar JR Marathe as Editors; then Ar Divya Kush, the Chairman of board and Ar Jagdeep Desai as Editor; Ar Vijay Garg, the Chairman and Prof Jatinder Singh and Ar Chandrashekhar Prabhu as editors. During 2008-10, Ar Kapil Mehta as Chairman and Prof Jatinder Singh as Editor continued the JIIA. In 2010-12, a new team of IIA has taken over and appointed me as Chairman and Editor of JIIA for two years term. During our tenure, we decided to start the concept of theme-based issues. It was also decided that Guest Editors will be appointed to cover more areas and specialized subjects. Till date, we have published issues on Temples of Learning, Houses & Housing, Architect of the Year Awards, Heritage Conservation, Sustainable Architecture, Cities, etc. Currently, the major problem is that some members do not get JIIA. At times it gets lost in postal transactions. Students need it for their researches and studies. Due to many constraints, it cannot reach other parts of the world. So, publication board has taken the initiative to preserve copies of JIIA. From August 2013 to January 2014, all issues are being made available in a book format. In future also, we shall make old issues available every six months. Hope our endeavour will be a fruitful exercise.

Download or read book Constructing Identity in Contemporary Architecture written by Peter Herrle and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2009 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global spread of uniform modes of production and cultural values has been accompanied by a dissemination of stereotypes of "modern" architecture styles almost everywhere around the globe. Paradoxically, the reverse process has also emerged: In some countries, the elites feel the necessity to counterbalance the "loss of identity" and defend their own cultures against the "intruding" forces of globalization. What started as a defensive notion has developed into a more progressive attempt to re-create what has allegedly been lost. This trend is being strongly expressed in discourses about architecture in countries of the South. Who are the actors feeling compelled to "construct" new identities? How are these new identities in architecture created in various parts of the world? And, which are the ingredients borrowed from various historical and ethnic traditions and other sources? These and other questions are discussed in five case studies from different parts of the world, written by renowned scholars from Brazil, Mexico, Egypt, India and Singapore.

Download or read book House but No Garden written by Nikhil Rao and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the well-documented development of colonial Bombay and sprawling contemporary Mumbai, a profound shift in the city’s fabric occurred: the emergence of the first suburbs and their distinctive pattern of apartment living. In House, but No Garden Nikhil Rao considers this phenomenon and its significance for South Asian urban life. It is the first book to explore an organization of the middle-class neighborhood that became ubiquitous in the mid-twentieth-century city and that has spread throughout the subcontinent. Rao examines how the challenge of converting lands from agrarian to urban use created new relations between the state, landholders, and other residents of the city. At the level of dwellings, apartment living in self-contained flats represented a novel form of urban life, one that expressed a compromise between the caste and class identities of suburban residents who are upper caste but belong to the lower-middle or middle class. Living in such a built environment, under the often conflicting imperatives of maintaining the exclusivity of caste and subcaste while assembling residential groupings large enough to be economically viable, led suburban residents to combine caste with class, type of work, and residence to forge new metacaste practices of community identity. As it links the colonial and postcolonial city—both visually and analytically—Rao’s work traces the appearance of new spatial and cultural configurations in the middle decades of the twentieth century in Bombay. In doing so, it expands our understanding of how built environments and urban identities are constitutive of one another.

Download or read book Interwar written by Gavin Stamp and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2024-03-07 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British architecture between the wars is most famous for the rise of modernism - the flat roofs, clean lines and concrete of the Isokon flats in Hampstead and the Penguin Pool at London Zoo - but the reality was far more diverse. As the modernists came of age and the traditionalists began to decline, there arose a rich variety of styles and tastes in Britain and across the empire, a variety that reflected the restless zeitgeist of the years before the Second World War. At the time of his death in 2017, Gavin Stamp, one of Britain's leading architectural critics, was at work on a deeply considered account of British architecture in the interwar period, correcting what he saw as the skewed view of earlier historians who were unable to see past modernism. Beginning with a survey of the modern movement after the armistice, Interwar untangles the threads that link lesser-known movements like the Egyptian revival with the enduring popularity of the Tudorbethan, to chronicle one of Britain's most dynamic architectural periods. The result is more than an architectural history - it is the portrait of a changing nation. As an account of the period that still shapes much of Britain's towns and cities, Gavin Stamp's final work is the definitive history of British architecture between the Great War and the Blitz.
