Books ｜Portrait of a House: Conversations with BV Doshi

Portrait of a House: Conversations with BV Doshidraws the celebrated architect into conversation with the photo artist Dayanita Singh in an exploration of the kindred alchemy of their creative practices. Beginning when she first photographed him in his famed Kamala House (Dayanita’s ‘favourite temple of light’),named after BV’s wife, the book spans years of their conversations, presented alongside black-and-white portraits of the space filled with family. In a collaborative exchange, BV responds directly to these photographs, revealing hidden motivations behind his architectural innovations. At its core, Portrait of a House is an exploration of light, movement, and a home’s capacity to guide its inhabitants, at turns lulling them to sleep or sparking them into animated conversation.
