About the speaker
Shimul Javeri Kadri founded and nurtured SJK Architects towards its current
avatar as a firm that values culture and climate and builds gently in the context.
The firm has won several awards nationally and internationally including the
World Architecture Festival Award for the Nirvana Films Building in Bangalore
and the Prix Versailles Award for the Dasavatara Hotel in Tirupati.
She pursues several causes - building naturally and lightly, and supporting
equality through education and feminism. She is a Trustee for Save the Children
India and for Akshara, where she has been actively steering education and
woman oriented projects. She is also on the Advisory Committee on Gender for
the MCGM.
The added responsibilities as an occasional writer, jurist, speaker and teacher are
the outcome of her overwhelming desire to present, engage and discuss her
passions and concerns of 30 years of practice!
