HOT 100
LOOKING BACK, LOOKING FORWARD

A collector’s edition that salutes the names that matter while taking stock of landmark events in the world of Indian architecture and design

The design business, by its very nature, is fuelled by the creative spirit. It allows people at the helm to think out of the box, break the mould, and visualise differently. Every project comes with its own range of complexities and possibilities – which, in turn, could create moments that stay with an architect and his team, because they represent a challenge well met, a solution sensitively conceived or an idea efficiently implemented. And though all such projects may cumulatively add to the experiences and wisdom of a practice, there are some that are special. Some shape careers, some mould philosophies… and others change trajectories. And then, when practices have achieved a certain orbit, there is always the excitement and hope for something that promises more such momentous milestones.

In the run-up to its 10th anniversary, Architect and Interiors India takes stock by putting together a telling list of projects that have shaped practices and careers of 100 of India’s top design practitioners, as well as projects that they look forward to with excitement and enthusiasm. And, in doing so, the publication fulfils its mission of celebrating excellence in design by recognising people, projects and products that embody this quality of creativity.
