El Croquis 200 Studio Mumbai 2012-20019

Description

Studio Mumbai is an Indian architecture firm founded and headed by Bijoy Jain. But it is also a team of architects, engineers, carpenters, and masons that excels in blending Indian and Western cultures. This monographic issue takes stock of the studio’s production from 2012 to the present, from its most recognised works, such as Copper House II and the Ahmedabad Residence, to more modest projects like the Ganga Maki Textile Studio in the Himalayan foothills, MPavilion 2016 in Melbourne, and a winery extension in the south of France. The issue also features handmade furniture shown at Maniera gallery in Brussels, which draws on universal materials and traditional Indian craft.
