Contemporary Architecture in India.

In its introduction, the book depicts the rise of modern architecture in India since independence in 1947. The main section describes the important tendencies of contemporary Indian architecture in thematic chapters, each with built examples. In addition to the new younger generation of Indian architects, it also considers the first post-independence generation, including Balkrishna Doshi and Charles Correa. 128 Seiten mit 90 Farb- und 130 s/w-Abb., gebunden (Birkhäuser Verlag 2007)
