This book presents an explanatory introduction to the variety of architectural approaches taken since Auroville’s founding in 1968, while at the same time giving an opportunity to many of the township’s practicing architects to talk about their work, their inspiration and future vision. Although we hope the book acts as a source of inspiration to all those interested in architecture, both within India and abroad, it does not set out to present any detailed analysis of Auroville architecture. Auroville: "At last a place where one will be able to think only of the future. At last a place where one will be able to think only of progressing and transcending oneself. At last a place where one will be able to live in peace, without conflicts and without rivalries of nations, religions and ambitions. At last a place where nothing will have the right to impose itself as the exclusive truth.
