RAVINDRA BHAN | 2020 “This monograph is an appropriate tribute to an iconic teacher and seminal landscape architect. He pioneered in propagating the scientific and rational processes of Landscape Architecture that was advocated by the legendary Ian McHarg. While his many students and several benchmark projects are a testament to his contributions to the discipline, he himself did not write about it. This monograph will hopefully fill that void and provide a valuable record of his compelling contributions to the profession of Landscape Architecture in India.”
