APURVA BOSE DUTTA
Architectural Inheritance and Evolution in India

Indian author, award-winning architectural journalist, curator, editor, and educator Ar. Apurva Bose Dutta (www.apurvabose.com) works at the intersection of architectural design writing, thinking, discourse, curation, journalism, criticism, and communications. Apurva’s passion for communication and academic background has translated into her unique 18-year career with the AEC industry, involving global collaborations with prominent multimedia publishing houses, firms, organisations, and institutions affiliated with architecture, design, and building. Apurva is extensively recognised for her pioneering initiatives in architectural writing. Her well-received first book, Architectural Voices of India, documented the voices of nineteen distinguished Indian architects and built a framework for a discourse on architecture.
