M N ASHISH GANJU<br />

Delhi based architect, M N Ashish Ganju’s work seems to spring from the self same concern for<br />

the user. His approach believes in a user-friendly architecture first and foremost. He calls his style<br />

of architecture - quiet, unassertive, and simple. For him form is not just shape. It means the way a<br />

building shapes up and integrates with the user, slightly similar to the sense in which we say – ‘this<br />

is or isn’t good form.’<br />

He mentioned in his talk at the conference at Ansal University that his work with Dalai Lama made<br />

him introspect on a lot of questions of the past – ‘What is it that can make people construct such<br />

large structures with no training in this field what so ever? Is it the devotion? What is it that makes<br />

this possible?’<br />

He felt that the possibility of creating such complex structures all by hand is all to do with dedication<br />

and devotion. He concluded that the way of the future is to train our own interior mindscape.<br />

Keeping a warm heart and working out the challenges of everyday life which are disturbing, would<br />

make us better designers in future.<br />
