Feeind I am sharing a vedio from yesterday when I was invited as the Chief Guest at the 3rd Annual Convocation of the College of Architecture, Vivekananda Educational Society (), Chembur, Mumbai, where I conferred degree certificates upon the graduating class of 2025–2026. Please see this 12 min vedio where I talk about powerful reflections from the life of Prof. Christopher Benninger, encouraging students to discover a deeper purpose in their professional journeys.
I spoke to the graduates about the importance of continuously developing skills, expanding knowledge, and nurturing tolerance in both professional and personal spheres. I also encouraged them to remain inclusive in their outlook, to respect diversity, and to always remember that we are all born equal.

Dear friends,

I was invited to interview renowned South Korean architect Ar. Moon Hoon at Design Nexus, hosted by Mitesh Patange of Family Interiors and curated by Ar. Ravi Gadre. This exclusive conversation brought together us togather to explore architecture that challenges conventions and redefines spatial experience.

In this insightful dialogue, we discusses some of Moon Hoon’s most iconic works, including the Two Moon Building, the Wind House, and the South Korea Pavilion at the Dubai Expo 2025. The conversation delves into design philosophy, cultural context, experimentation with form, and the evolving role of architecture in shaping human experiences.
