5. 1.Doshi belief in the ‘Mythical
Sense’ of space often evident in
traditional architecture which is not
simply confined to open or closed
areas.
2.The structural and formal
systems that Doshi has adopted led
him to assimilate the 2nd principle
of Vaastu-Purusha Mandala to
ensure minimum standards of
health and hygiene in each project .
3. Transformation of Energy
between the building and people
using the space for functional
use.
4. Doshi has persisted a
deep belief in importance of
‘Human Institutions’, just as
Louis-i-Kahn did before him.
5. A more specific principle is
to follow ‘flexible rather
than rigid approach to the
structure’.
6. The idea of flexibility
leads him to a principle,
of incorporating
“symbolism”.
7. Doshi also advocates “Amorphous
rather than finite forms” ; used with
multiple structural systems so that
‘experience with them may be loose
meandering and multiple’. For e.g.- Aranya
low cost housing, Indore.
8. As an eighth and final
principle, doshi seeks
“Timelessness” in his
architecture much as Louis
khan did when describing his
quality in historical precedents
as' open endedness’.
