It will certainly keep you moving. Sure It’s going to be a roller-coaster ride.

Rakesh Elkhart | Ashwin Sasidharan
Rakesh and Ashwin have been best friends for years and have vast experience in helping architecture students. Graduated from NIT Calicut, Kerala a couple of years ago, they always felt the need to address the problems and answer the doubts that student architects face. They managed to survive the course, despite many emotional and physical difficulties. Despite Rakesh having experience as an Author, this is their first venture together. Hence, they started off slow, by busting the myths and uncovering the truths about architectural education in India. Both Rakesh and Ashwin fancy supercars and read philospohy in their leisure time.
