Principal, MNM Jain School of Architecture & Practicing Architect
An Architect with over 20 years of industrial and academic experience, Ar. Barath has completed his Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from Hindustan College of Engineering, Madras University, and a Master’s degree in Architecture from SRM University, Chennai.
Over the years he has worked in numerous facets of Architecture, urban planning, landscape, and interior design through different stages of Design and Execution. He has balanced Academics and Practices together. He has contributed immensely to the Design studio and related subjects. He believes that the current academic programs should be rooted in real-world situations and respond to present and future needs in progressive ways. His approach towards academics has always been to encourage regular, effective, and flexible teaching methods. Young students of Architecture benefit immensely from his vast knowledge and command over the Practical approach towards design. He also aims to build networks with industry partners to collaborate on projects with students.
While sustainability is not fully established in the design world, Bharath firmly believes that they are quickly becoming absolute necessities and architects/students should cultivate this approach in design and think critically about the consequences of their work.
