520			_aAr. Hafeez Contractor (HC): I gave architecture a new look, a new form, along with its functionality. When I entered the industry of architecture, I observed that 90 % of the housing in the western region, with the construction of RCC with brick and plaster walls, was unable to withstand the incessant monsoons, and therefore always remained damp and leaking. I set out to correct this by shielding the exterior wall with a screen wall in front. This simple solution, not thought of nor implemented till then, gave to its occupants a healthier building and thereby a healthier life. Subsequently, many buildings started implementing the idea that germinated from my designs, in mass housing. It was simple out-of-the- box thinking at that time
