Q. What propelled you to work on this title? Where did the idea to create this collection emerge ?
A. Even as architects and urban practitioners, our understanding of our surroundings is limited and devoid of humanity. We often forget, what makes a 'place' are the people who occupy it. This is the bridge the book tries to build — by understanding a complex city like Mumbai through the lens of its people — offering a revisit of the city. All of this was done with the intent that we need to be more sensitised to our contexts as practitioners.
