Pyramids, palaces, and remnants of the nuclear bombing are embedded with stories. All these stories liven up the buildings. They talk about the challenges of the times. Such stories are a part of our heritage but these stories are now getting lost and are on the verge of slowly disappearing.
Pankaj Modi believes that the idea of heritage continuity is to see how we continue the past by adding a layer of the present day as it evolves.
A conservation architect by practice, Pankaj Modi, for the last two decades, has contributed immensely towards conserving India’s heritage. Having completed his undergraduate and postgraduate studies in prestigious Indian institutions, he also holds a Specialization in Wood Conservation at Oslo, Norway. He plays an integral role in managing conservation projects at India’s largest NGO, INTACH. He is also an awardee of the Lg-Archi design Critics Choice Award. He strongly regards learning as a collaboration of both textbook knowledge and practical skills, and serves as a visiting faculty of postgraduate courses under Architectural Conservation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
