Perennial Arc's learning through memory

Bridging Memory, Architecture, and Research In this vision, the Mandvi Maritime Research Institute becomes more than just a center for academic study—it becomes a living, breathing extension of the town’s memory and identity. Its architecture recalls the dhows that once filled the shipyards, its programs preserve and innovate upon ancient techniques, and its global partnerships carry Mandvi’s legacy forward into the future. As people walk through the institute’s halls—whether they are researchers, students, or visitors—they would be surrounded by the physical and intellectual memory of Mandvi’s maritime past. The architecture itself tells a story, the exhibits preserve the voices of shipbuilders, and the institute’s research ensures that Mandvi’s contribution to maritime history and innovation is carried forward, from generation to generation.
