Out of Studio

In this special episode of OUT OF STUDIO, I sit down with someone who once signed off on impossible deadlines and non existing architecture sleep schedule.My former dean, mentor, and now friend: Dr. Ritu Deshmukh.She’s an academic trailblazer with a PhD, a heart full of stories, and a suitcase always half-packed. We talk architecture, the evolution of education, the real lessons outside the lecture hall, and how curiosity (and a passport) can shape a better designer.It’s reflective, insightful, and yes, she does remind me of my old design critiques. (Jokes at my cost)Tune in for wisdom, wanderlust, and a conversation that bridges the studio and the world beyond it.

Episode 5: Origami, Folds, and Messenger Pigeons In this episode of OUT OF STUDIO, we unfold the fascinating intersections of design, nature, and communication. Dive into the world of origami and folded structures, exploring how these paper-folding techniques inspire innovative architectural solutions, from deployable shelters to space-efficient designs. We also take a whimsical flight into the history of messenger pigeons—nature’s original couriers—discussing their surprising relevance to design principles like efficiency, navigation, and adaptability. Blending creativity and curiosity, this episode delivers a thought-provoking yet lighthearted conversation on how the simplest of folds or flights can inspire profound design concepts. Join us for an engaging ride through the art of bending and soaring!

In this episode, we talk about the design that changes over time while setting its very bottom line essence to survive. An interesting take over adaptive reuse and folding the lines of past with present-future design, we discuss what factors and segments are necessary for them to thrive. Ranging the conversation from hikes, skipping towns, and experiencing a new space Abhishek Patel and Binal Panchal share their work with us.

To look for: 🐃🐃 How was the idea conceived and implemented in the phase of design, and what factors were important to lead along with. How wild buffalos shape the surroundings as well as be pests on the same land as they thrive on. Important note by Kelvin at the end of the Episode 🚰🥤
