Krishna Rao Jaisim Art Of Living - Library
This small church is a powerful exploration in pure platonic form. Simply built of brick and with a corrugated roof, the triangular prism is complemented by a freestanding bell tower. The building is economical, practical and modest. Patel’s interest in platonic form can also be seen in institutional and commercial projects.
Hasmukh Patel Church At Cambay
The Taj Mahal is considered to be the greatest architectural achievement in the whole range of Indo-Islamic architecture. Its recognised architectonic beauty has a rhythmic combination of solids and voids, concave and convex and light shadow; such as arches and domes further increases the aesthetic aspect.
Ustad Ahmad Lahori The Taj Mahal
One of the most significant of Mies' works, the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois, was built between 1945 and 1951 for Dr. Edith Farnsworth as a weekend retreat. The home embraces his concept of a strong connection between structure and nature, and may be the fullest expression of his modernist ideals.

The home sits in a clearing within a dense grove of mango trees. Rooms are loosely arranged around a central space to create a protected courtyard, securing the inhabitants while mediating the surrounding landscape.
