Extract from a letter to our Client in Delhi dated 30th August 2009. “Contextually the site does not offer the project a whole lot, however we're interested in the idea of latency. We would like B85* to spawn interesting and comparable trends in the area...We are interested in innovation with equanimity.Since there's no architectural rhetoric to evaluate at bourgeoisie Chhattarpur(except for the mandir ofcourse), I think we have a fairly neutral venue to deal with. Therefore, B85* points to a formalist approach and conflates several strategies from Delhi’s modernist lineage without being elitist...*B85 refers to the plot's address. CCVG was a housing project comprising three compact interconnected blocks containing ten unique apartments.”
