Journal of the Indian institute of architects :(JIIA)Summary: Palimpsest refers to any kind of surface or structure that bears
multiple layers of visible or hidden information, creating a complex
and layered history that reveals itself through close inspection and
interpretation. In architecture, it reflects the ways in which a typology
has been transformed and adapted over time and how these changes
have contributed to its current character and identity.
Architecture has always been a product of its era, reflecting
the needs and aspirations of the populace. The architectural
profession is essential to developing solutions for a more
sustainable future as we tackle the challenges of the twenty-
first century. New typologies that address present-day
expectations and challenges are one such approach.
