20 X 20: Twenty Architects X Twenty Iconic Home of India

- 20x20 contains a beautiful cross-section of 20 houses spread across the country and the architects who brought them to life - from Ladakh right down to Kerala and everything in between

- The book strikes a curious but credible balance between marrying fact and lyricism that is key to understanding why architecture is classified as one of the seven arts

- A refreshing read for architecture and design enthusiasts and novices alike, the idea behind the book was to portray homes with interweaving luxury and sustainability to create spaces that blend in with the surroundings

Take a tour through a select collection of homes across the length and breadth of India built by architects both new and experienced, conjured in diverse geographies. Hillside holiday homes, modern apartments in large metros, beachy villas opening out to views of the rolling surf - this book takes a look at well-designed homes crafted by architects working in India. Get the opportunity to look at everything from work-in-progress photographs to sketches, blueprints and the final architecture of the home as it all comes together in the pages of the book. Twenty architects, their iconic projects and how they are slowly redefining cityscapes and landscapes in the country.
