Chandigarh: Concrete Capitol

A profile of the Indian city of Chandigarh, written and photographed for The Modernist magazine.

The piece focuses on the design, politics and sociology of the Capitol Complex, designed primarily by the modernist architect Le Corbusier, and provides a short biography of Chandigarh from its fledgling post-colonial beginnings, to its drifting purpose amid the turbulence of post-modern complexity.
