This course will take you through an interesting journey on the evolution of modern architecture in India from pre-independence to the present time. This evolution will be seen through various modern trends and building typologies, covering many buildings over a span of nearly a century, not only of masters like Charles Correa and B.V. Doshi, but also many other architects who have made a significant contribution in the development of a modern Indian architecture. It will conclude with the study of 21st century Indian architecture, highlighting several emerging concepts.

Intended audience: UG and PG students of architecture

Prerequisites: No prerequisite is required for a B.Arch. or an M.Arch. student, but it is appropriate after B.Arch. II year. Ideally, study of modern world architecture should be done before this course.
