Domus India 51, May 2016
The May 2016 issue of Domus India engages with the flesh and blood of a building – its materiality, its structure, its elements of design, form and weight, its physical existence within a context.

It features the exhibition on the un-built works of Charles Correa which looks carefully at the shape of spatial ideas, their form in building-volumes, and the architectural terrain of every project – to develop a thesis and a framework on viewing a body and biography of work; the same set of notes again also apply to the feature on Zaha Hadid.

A unique event put together in Bengaluru by the Indian Institute of Architects – Karnataka Chapter and the Architecture Week in Mumbai, jointly organised by The State of Architecture exhibition and the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival this year – are forms of active engagement with practice, the idea of work and production that goes into the making of buildings and architecture, featured in this issue of the magazine.

Further, in understanding the life of a pioneering engineer like Sir MV (Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya) one is indeed looking at the coming together of intellectual content, and material practice of engineering in a wider historical context – a clear reason why we would bring extracts of an exhibition on Sir MV organised under the aegis of the Nehru Science Centre (National Council of Science Museums, Ministry of Culture, Government of India) into the pages of this magazine.

Moreover, as the international edition of Domus published their 1000th issue, we bring an assortment of editorial material from the international pages to showcase the evolution of architecture and design-related content over the years.
