Once again, it’s time for us to nudge India’s young architects and designers to the forefront. They are the leaders of tomorrow and the promise of a
new and improved urban lifestyle that takes into consideration the issues that challenge the built spaces they design. Their idealism, intelligence, inspiration and ingenuity enable them to take giant strides towards a brighter future for us all.
every year since 2012, we sought out the best of the fresh crop of architects and designers who are informed, individualistic and innovative. In keeping with the ‘i’ generation they represent – an alphabet that has acquired new meaning thanks to the illustri-ous Steve Jobs and the ubiquitous iPhone, iPad and iPod – we call them iGen (short for iGeneration).
Our selection of gen-next architects and designers is eagerly awaited. On the basis of recommenda-tions by their gurus, seniors and peers as well as the quality of work they have done, we invited these architects and designers to share their dynamism,
In a world crying out for change, these 50 architects and designers who comprise our iGen hotlist this year could make a telling difference

They are not just a dynamic, young bunch of design enthusi-asts, but also passionate souls who have a burning desire to raise the bar when it comes to Indian archi-tecture and design. Apart from socially responsible, sustainable or contextual architecture, our iGen

more room for their idealistic pursuits. Carrying in their heart a profound appreciation for
the legendary architects of the past and present, the young professionals are intepretating the vision and ideologies of their role models through their own visual vocabulary. This seamless amalgamation of tradition and 21st century needs speaks of a genera-tion that is innovative in its reverence.
inspired by the people who are shaping the future of their individual cities and the country at large. Get a glimpse into their practice as they discuss their
modern architecture and design, and the challenges they face with optimism – sometimes even with a dash of humour that will leave a smile on your face.
