About Indian Architecture

Indian architecture is that  vast tapestry of production of  the Indian Subcontinent that encompasses a multitude of expressions over space and time, transformed by the forces of history considered unique to the sub-continent, sometimes destroying, but most of the time absorbing. The result is an evolving range of architectural production that none the less retains a certain form of continuity.

Conclusion

Indian architecture as it stands today, is a body of production that cannot easily be exemplified by the approaches,

buildings and architects cited above. It has evolved over the centuries and has been affected by numerous invaders who have brought different styles from their motherlands. But it is an unavoidable fact that certain expressions tend to get magnified and others reduced when set against the vast canvas of the world. A more representative selection can occur only at a deeper level of study.
