SEA Conversations
South Asian Landscapes
an infra-regional e-symposium on contemporary building practices across South Asia
July-September 2020
www.sea.edu.in
Along with continuing historical threads, cultural similarity and a shared colonial past, South Asian countries have been working towards articulating a critical discourse in shaping its built environment today. How can architecture mediate cultural and political forces that emerge from our common past? What role may architects and spatial practitioners play in building relevant futures for South Asia? How can we respond to the distinct social tectonics that shape its people and place? What practices of the built environment from the past and present remain unrecognized in South Asia and how can these be deployed into a meaningful future?
