India
August
The August issue of Domus India opens with an art exhibition that conceptualises questions of life and violence, where the artist, Sahej Rahal, tries to re-imagine the destroyed mythical city of Muziris through a colonial-era building and sculptures of fantastical creatures, quasi-architectural elements, and geometrical forms reminiscent of weapons and artillery.
We then feature the temples of Orchha that display deceptively delicate elements reflecting both a sense of ornamentation and fortification. Further, we explore a Buddhist learning centre in rural Maharashtra where the human dimension is maintained in the scale and the tactility of the project’s bounding elements and details and another temple that draws inspiration for design from its surroundings, and its users, who, with a severe sense of clarity of what they expected, helped to further nuance the design.
