The international competition for the IGNCA design drew 194 entries from thirty-seven countries and carried an award of Rs.10,00,000.Presented here are approximately fifty of the proposals, of which the first five prizeĀ winning entries are set forth in some detail. The selection was made by the eminent archiect A.P. Kanvinde, a former student of Walter Gropius at Harvard and a member of the IGNCA Jury. Beyond the purpose of documentation, this book serves as an encyclopaedia of ideas and information for architects and builders throughout the world.Printed Pages: 184.
