Balkrishna Doshi Wins Pritzker Prize
Indian Architect Named 2018 Laureate
The 2018 Pritzker Prize
Laureate Balkrishna Doshi
(above) founded Vastushilpa
Consultants in 1956. In 1981,
he designed Sangath
architecture studio in
Ahmedabad, India (right).
Balkrishna Doshi has been announced as the 2018 Pritzker
Architecture Prize Laureate, the architecture profession's most
esteemed honor. Known often as B.V. Doshi or simply Doshi, he has
served as an architecture practitioner and a lecturer for more than
70 years. He is the first Indian architect to receive the honor.
Doshi began his career in Europe, first in London and then
France, where he worked alongside Le Corbusier, and later worked with
Louis Kahn on the development of the Indian Institute of Management.
In 1956, he launched his practice Vastushilpa, which now operates as
Vastushilpa Consultants. He established the Vastu-Shilpa Foundation
for Studies and Research in Environmental Design in 1978 to create
planning and design approaches aligned with the Indian cultural
vernacular. The impact of his mentors is manifested in the composition
of his poetic work, where he often synthesizes brick and concrete
forms with distinctive Indian architectural layouts and sensibilities.
"Doshi constantly demonstrates that all good architecture
and urban planning must not only unite purpose and structure but
must take into account climate, site, technique, and craft, along with
a deep understanding and appreciation of the context in the broadest
sense," the Pritzker Prize jury citation read. "Projects must go beyond
the functional to connect with the human spirit through poetic
and philosophical underpinnings."
Doshi will be formally honored during the 40th Pritzker Prize
ceremony in Toronto on May 16. -WILL SPEROS
