Processes

Time, Memory, Nostalgia

Architecture has traditionally been the one of the most prominent markers of our legacy on this organic spaceship. We get to know about ourselves, because architectural systems, visual, material & behavioral, have survived the test of forces of nature over time.

A conscious effort to maximise our sensory experiences within and around 3 dimensional space, including unbuilt ones, thereby creating tactile memory through research backed materiality & form finding. Over time, such an approach creates 'Architectures of Nostalgia, of pasts yet to be'™

Profile

Fondly known as KD, his personal pursuit of Architecture has been a conscious. deliberate off-roader so far.

Currently a Doctoral Candidate at the at the Technical University of Vienna PhD research on speculative novel architectural identities. KD’s work is informed by a deep sense of ephemerality and erasure of architectures, mentored by Prof. David Greene, of Archigram, in 2010 at Oxford, after receiving his Bachelors from Sir JJ College of Architecture, Mumbai. `

‘We are here for those Architectures of Nostalgia,
for the pasts yet to be’

Since returning to India in 2012, his experience has been vast. Having tutored in various universities , 2013 onwards, KD has been travelling with a mission to engage with young architects by provoking discourse on contemporary architectural knowledge, diversity and inclusion in contemporary narratives within the fast-changing values of our material-, visual- & built-cultures. These are based upon the strong belief in intersectional equities, parity in representation & empathic inclusion, both at work & beyond.

The sacrality of an otherwise largely obscure, private creative praxis is paramount to a growing body of speculative, 'Incomplete Works'.
