Heritage is a passion for some people. Two of such young and energetic like-minded people joined hands and laid the foundation of Architectural Sankul. The organization has been working strenuously for creating awareness about Nagpur’s beautiful heritage among students, residents and heritage lovers by organising heritage walks, talks, events, publications and online resources. Nagpur is blessed with hundreds of beautiful and rare monuments, and it would be impossible to reconstruct such grand artefacts if we lose them. I personally, therefore, appreciate from the depth of my heart this great initiative and always ready to assist, guide and help as per my ability to achieve the objective with which it has been started. Lastly, I would like to say that it is the prime duty of every citizen to protect and preserve these historical sites which represents the grand cultural heritage of Nagpur.

Architecture Sankul is one of the first of its kind, multidiscplinary organization in Nagpur initiated by Dr Madhura Rathod and Ar. Nitika S. Ramani. The motto was to create awareness among all stakeholder about Nagpur heritage and sensitize them to make efforts to protect it. To facilitate this, activities in the Architecture Sankul are very well planned and conducted. I am always happy to participate and be part of its activities.

“ A nation’s culture resides in the hearts and soul of its people”. This standpoint as outlined by Rastrapita Mahatma Gandhi aptly sums up the vision behind Architectural Sankul. This organisation continuously strives to create awareness towards the rich historical-cultural heritage of India in general and Nagpur in particular. I sincerely hope that their efforts in this Herculean task at hand bestow fruitful results

It’s my pleasure to be in association with Architectural Sankul for the last four years now. We have collaboratively worked for many events and programs. I really appreciate the efforts taken by you both to raise AS to this height. Of course the dedication and hard work keep adding stars to the organization. I wish best wishes to both of you! Keep working, keep growing!

“Creating awareness among students about the protection of the built heritage and conservation of the communities’ local traditional and cultural values is a challenge. Architecture Sankul is the organisation where one can find many learning platforms for this purpose. I value and appreciate their constant efforts of knowledge giving through various activities like Heritage walks, workshops, seminars, lectures etc. We at PIADS conducted a 3 days Heritage workshop and a Lecture for students in collaboration with AS. Working with Architectural Sankul was a great experience and success and that is what makes us want to collaborate even further in future.”
