The renovation and extension of the Lycée Français
Internationale de Pondicherry (LFIP) or the French High-
School of Puducherry has been a landmark project for me.
Like many architects of my generation Maurice Merleau-
Ponty’s Phenomenology of Perception and Robert Venturi’s
Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture had a
profound influence on my approach to architectural design.
The idea of architecture being ‘a machine to live in’ though
intellectually attractive is a reductive of its potential.
