About Myself:
Born and bought up in Kolkata, West Bengal. Above exploring and trying to learn new things, I have a good sense of words being a part-time Content Writer/Blogger.My main reason to being an architect is my curiosity t owards dotting down to the deep hole of the matter.
However, I do presume to have keen inetrest in contemporary and modern architecture in reference with vernacularism. However, in future, I aim to see myself as an Urban Planner and an Architectural Blogger.

Nani Majiraj Kanyashala is considered to be one of the most iconic buildings in the city of Bhavnagar, Gujarat. The building was the hotspot of the Queen of Gondal, who was immenesely into reading and writing. With a fine work and articulation of Hindu architecture seen here, the building showed a symbol of women-orientated society with independent women on their way to pursue their goals. Tha facade of the building makes a huge impact on the first sighters. Presently, it works as an educational hub, i.e. a primary school for children.
