Studio Mumbai. The Practice of Making
Located in a studio just south of Mumbai in India; Studio Mumbai is closer to a traditional craft workshop than a conventional architects' office. With over 100 carpenters based on site, the studio is able to realize large‐scale mock‐ups, as well as models and graphic representations. As Guest‐Editor Michael Hensel explains, craft and the collaboration between craftsmen is at the very core of the practice. Within the workshop typical roles become blurred: as carpenters become architects, architects enter the craft of carpentry; and they both pursue the field of masonry. Out of an affinity for craft comes an empathy with the local, whether expressed in a respect for site and the land or indigenous materials and building traditions.
