Book Journal of the Indian Institute of Architects

Download or read book Journal of the Indian Institute of Architects written by Surinder Bahga and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 410 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 February to July 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 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.

Book Buildings of Empire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ashley Jackson
  • Publisher : OUP Oxford
  • Release : 2013-11-28
  • ISBN : 0191625175
  • Pages : 344 pages

Download or read book Buildings of Empire written by Ashley Jackson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-11-28 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buildings of Empire takes the reader on an exciting journey through thirteen territories of the British Empire. From Dublin Castle to the glass and steel of Sir Norman Foster's Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank skyscraper, these buildings capture the essence of the imperial experience, painting an intimate portrait of the biggest empire the world has ever seen: the people who made it and the people who resisted it, as well as the legacy of the imperial project throughout the world. Ashley Jackson visits classic examples of the buildings that the British governed from, the forts they (often brutally) imposed their rule from, the railway stations they travelled from, the banks they traded from, the educational establishments they spread their values from, as well as the grand colonial hotels they stayed in, the sporting clubs and botanical gardens where they took their leisure, and the monumental exhibition spaces in which they celebrated the achievements of settlement and imperial endeavour. The history of these buildings does not end with the empire that built them. Their story in the aftermath of empire highlights the continuing legacy of many of the structures and institutions the British left behind, as well as the sometimes unexpected role that these former symbols of alien rule have played in the establishment of new national identities in the years since independence.

Book Turning Archival

  • Release : 2022-09-06
  • ISBN : 1478022582
  • Pages : 263 pages

Download or read book Turning Archival written by Daniel Marshall and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to Turning Archival trace the rise of “the archive” as an object of historical desire and study within queer studies and examine how it fosters historical imagination and knowledge. Highlighting the growing significance of the archival to LGBTQ scholarship, politics, and everyday life, they draw upon accounts of queer archival encounters in institutional, grassroots, and everyday repositories of historical memory. The contributors examine such topics as the everyday life of marginalized queer immigrants in New York City as an archive; secondhand vinyl record collecting and punk bootlegs; the self-archiving practices of grassroots lesbians; and the decolonial potential of absences and gaps in the colonial archives through the life of a suspected hermaphrodite in colonial Guatemala. Engaging with archives from Africa to the Americas to the Arctic, this volume illuminates the allure of the archive, reflects on that which resists archival capture, and outlines the stakes of queer and trans lives in the archival turn.

Book Abundance

  • Author : Anjali Arondekar
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2023-06-30
  • ISBN : 1478024488
  • Pages : 115 pages

Download or read book Abundance written by Anjali Arondekar and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Abundance, Anjali Arondekar refuses the historical common sense that archival loss is foundational to a subaltern history of sexuality, and that the deficit of our minoritized pasts can be redeemed through acquisitions of lost pasts. Instead, Arondekar theorizes the radical abundance of sexuality through the archives of the Gomantak Maratha Samaj—a caste-oppressed devadasi collective in South Asia—that are plentiful and quotidian, imaginative and ordinary. For Arondekar, abundance is inextricably linked to the histories of subordinated groups in ways that challenge narratives of their constant devaluation. Summoning abundance over loss upends settled genealogies of historical recuperation and representation and works against the imperative to fix sexuality within wider structures of vulnerability, damage, and precarity. Multigeneric and multilingual, transregional and historically supple, Abundance centers sexuality within area, post/colonial, and anti/caste histories.

Book Marketing Modernisms

Download or read book Marketing Modernisms written by Peter Richmond and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architect, teacher, journalist, town planner and cultural entrepreneur, Sir Charles Reilly (1874–1948) was a leading figure of the early twentieth-century British architectural scene. Marketing Modernisms is the first book to take an in-depth look at Reilly’s career, tracing his evolving architectural ethos via a series of case studies of his built work. Among other issues, the author considers Reilly’s involvement in cultural enterprises such as the establishment of the Liverpool Repertory Theatre, his journalism, transatlantic links and town-planning theories. Reilly has been largely overlooked by writers of Modernist histories, but this book restores him to deserved prominence.
