UNVEILING THE UNKNOWN
RAJOO PRADHAN
Bhakti Thakoor
LA 76
Some individuals or professionals make a deep impact on your mind. One does not have to meet them every day, but they manage to carve out a special place in your life. Rajoo Pradhan Sir for me was one such individual.
  In 2006, I met him for the first time on a work-related project. I still clearly remember an incident where the client asked him right away if he was related to Mr. Kishore Pradhan. He quickly said, “No, he’s my guru.” He had the highest regard and respect for him and always looked at him as his mentor.
  Rajoo Sir graduated from the Academy of Architecture in the year 1976. Since his college days, he was extremely fascinated by the subject of Landscape Architecture. He followed the works of Charles Correa and Geoffrey Bawa extensively. He strongly believed that Landscape Architecture was an extension of Architecture.
