SELECTION PROCESS

The intention of the KVDF is to provide a platform to discuss architectural education in india. student projects are displayed to illustrate the various teaching and design methods employed across a section of architecture schools. the projects further act as catalysts in setting up specific issues and concerns that merit debate.

In this context, the selection process (pre-jury) is aimed at identifying trneds across projects rather than selecting projects based on merit. a discussion of architectural education cannot include or for that matter exclude projects on the basis of their success. the selection panel has accepted all the projects and identified issues that emerge from them. the emerging themes based on the projects will be put up shortly.
