“ A MARRIAGE BETWEEN PERSONAL CREATIVE URGE AND FULFILLING UNSPOKEN DREAMS OF CLIENTS IS CALLED ARCHITECTURE”

~ ARCHITECT BALAKRISHNA DOSHI

ISHITA

As a student architect, My aim is to respect the five elements- air, light, water, earth and fire with greatest dignity. I would like to be a part of the projects and contribute positively in projects where comfort is affordable, design is sustainable, structure is living and ornamentation is guilt- free. My college has taught me in great detail the process & evolution of design. With practical experience, I wish to make a significant contribution in the field of architecture.
