THINK TURF’S INDORE EDITION SAW A ROBUST DISCUSSION ON BUILDING SUSTAINABLE AND EFFICIENT SPACES.

BUILT TO LAST

The “Think Turf” Smart Living Forum co-created by Architect & Interiors India and Voltas India, brings together the country’s most sought after architects and designers to discuss the key challenges and opportunities faced within the fraternity. Within the forum, they share their insights and experiences regarding the dynamic trends and innovations on designing and building sustainable and efficient spaces. The event has been taking place along the length and breadth of the country in cities like Surat, Guwahati, Pune, Chandigarh, Kochi and many more, with the latest edition held in the rapidly evolving city of Indore.

Bibhor Srivastava, group publishing director at ITP Media Group (India), welcomed the audience with a brief overture about the forum and also introduced partnering air-conditioning brand Voltas, applauding them for successfully cocreating the forum. He then proceeded to invite the keynote speaker, Shantanu Poredi, principal architect at MO-OF/ Mobile Offices onto the stage to deliver the keynote address on Designing & Building Sustainable & Efficient Spaces.

Poredi started off by sharing a few of the diverse smart and sustainable projects done by his multidisciplinary firm, based out of Mumbai, ranging from a campus in hot and humid Vijaywada to a housing development project in snowy Kasauli.

“Our office works on a keystone consisting of two parts, which are, working on building communities by trying to understand the client and what kind of community they would like to build and how we can foster that into our architecture, and the second part being the environmental climate pertaining to sustainability,” explained Poredi. He then gave an in depth anatomisation into one of his most prominent projects, School of Planning and Architecture, Vijayawada, a phenomenal precedent of sustainable architecture.
