Dhruv Bhatia
I am Dhruv Bhatia, a 19 year old Architecture student at School of Planning &Architecture, Bhopal, India currently in my third year out of the five-year major. Born and brought up in New Delhi, the capital city of India, I have been fortunate enough to experience the diversity of cultures, art and architecture. I am a keen observer who believes in developing frameworks that define design approach and integrates every aspect of human life. As an admirer of the heritage, I believe in finding a comprehensive solution to preserve what now has become a door to the past.

Vasudev K Gaur
I am a 3rd year Architecture student at School of Planning and Architecture, Bhopal. I firmly believe that architecture is synonymous to long term commitment to exploring and learning; and that those who consider it merely as creation of spaces occupying volumes never understood the essence of this major. I am of the opinion that the more demanding the client is or the elaborate the design problem is; the more absorbing its design process becomes and the more appealing the building turns out to be. Writing has always been a pastime for me, and inspecting & writing about the innovative prospects in the field of the construction fascinates me furthermore. As a future architect, my goal is to bring socially expressive and thought-provoking structures to life.
