Indian Architecture Awards (IAA) Architect of the Year Ar. Sidhartha Talwar (New Delhi) Krushi Bhawan is the facility developed for Government of Odisha's Department of Agriculture & Farmer's Empowerment. It was originally planned as a purely administrative building; upon our suggestion, the spatial programme was revised to accommodate spaces for community engagement and learning. We collaborated with over 100 highly-skilled artisans to create a vibrant and contemporary narrative of traditional Odia craft depicting agricultural folklore and mythological stories, envisioned at an unprecedented architectural scale.
