A language is a powerful tool of communication and expression, which can also shape the perceptions of society. Language in addition to connecting the world also reflects the culture and thought. There are more than 20 official languages in India, but Architecture is mostly talked about and taught in English only, and that too in a language that is far too complex even for architects to comprehend, leave alone the common man. This problem has created more disconnect between the people and the profession and has made the profession look elitist. Isn’t Architecture supposed to be more for people than architects?

The objective of the competition is to encourage the use of local language to explain the architectural character of buildings. In a way, making architectural information more accessible to people.[/bs-text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][bs-text title=”Competition brief” show_title=”1″ icon=”” title_link=”” heading_color=”” heading_style=”default” heading_tag=”h3″ bs-show-desktop=”1″ bs-show-tablet=”1″ bs-show-phone=”1″ bs-text-color-scheme=”” css=”” custom-css-class=”” custom-id=””]Explain the architectural character of a residence in an official Indian language other than English through a video and a write up.
