AnveshanaMystery of Ancient Indian Architecture

Indian architecture- Paradigm of Art !!!

Architecture of India is the most tangible and awe-inspiring projection of India’s art, culture and global discourse

across thousands of years

Why are these just site seeing spots?

!Why are these not being brought into main stream architecture?

!Why are traditional houses and buildings being replaced by modern architecture? !Why aren’t traditional tried and tested scienti f ic concepts behind Indian architecture not being incorporated in modern construction? !Why is the awareness so low about different forms of Indian architecture?

However some questions still remain unanswered!!

Anveshana , Sanskrit word which literally means exploration, is a project and campaign to bring back the glory of dying traditional architecture of India. It basically involves a research o r i e n t e d m e t h o d o l o g y t o m a ke traditional architecture relevant in current times in terms of designing, technology, durability and aesthetic appeal.

Objectives: • Finding a lost design culture • Identifying peculiarities in detailing of some

of the architectural masterpieces • Exploring technology of design works • Preserving designs to prevent from getting extinct • Deriving eco-friendly designs for current
