Master's Stroke:Matters of architectural language/style

The main focus of studio focusing on the attitudes such as mass,light, spaces, construction, concepts, organization of an architect(here Peter Zumthor) and designing using these attitudes in the context of Udaipur. Project-Books offers an engagement of a world within a world. They proliferated with the advent of the printing press, making book publishing an enterprise and engendering a place. Since then, bookshops have evolved to become an important place for an engagement with world of words and readers. The project is to design a bookshop with a cafe attached in the area of 300 sq m.
