3 Questions with Author, Theorist and Critic Kaiwan Mehta
1. Are buildings indicative of a relationships within the community and culture in the metropolitan space?
Architecture isn’t just about constructing and designing buildings, but is also about the making and shaping of a building’s life, and then, understanding the life a building lives once it is constructed. Architecture is an accumulation of human knowledge, experience and technology, and it is also the collection of lives, memories and histories that pass by buildings, get lost in them or some times, hang around like ghosts. So, architecture is the site within which, and around which, life and culture play out their roles, scripts, histories and chance encounters.
