With the rise of concrete jungles in every Indian metropolitan city, the knowledge of our country’s unique architecture is slowly fading into history. India is a diverse land, with many different kinds of terrains, soils and weather conditions, it would be impossible to imagine a uniform housing style throughout the country. Back in the day,huts and houses were planned and built for practical purposes and constructed with materials that were easily available to the region. With the onsetofrapid urbanization and technology the people of this country may no longer find the need to build houses like our forefathers did; but that is no reason for it to be forgotten.
