SURYAKANT BHAVSAR ARCHITECT
Born in 1942 in a small village of Gujarat, India, educated in architecture from Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda in
1965, Architect Bhavsar runs his well established architectural practice in Ahmedabad. He has wide and varied experience in
the field of architectural practice. His professional experience spreads over the last 45 years wherein he has designed
multitude of projects ranging from individual residences to large townships, IT work spaces, institutional & industrial
complexes, hostels, hospitals and high-rise residential complexes spread in different parts of the country.
Architect Bhavsar’s approach to design stems from his deep understanding of various architectural disciplines and the basic
value system inherent in our culture. His penchant for exactitude in design and works have earned him national prominence
when he was honored with the ARCHITECT OF THE YEAR - 1993 NATIONAL AWARD* for his design of hospital complex in
Korba, Chhattisgarh, India, for Madhya Pradesh electricity board.
Every project undertaken by the firm is designed personally and directly by Mr. Bhavsar. All buildings designed by him
respond to the complex demands of rapid urbanization, climate and culture. In a country that is both developing and industrialized, whose architectural inheritance is ancient as well as recent and whose society is conservative and pluralist, Bhavsar’s work combines sophisticated technology and a sense of history and context imparted not only by design but also by local materials and skills.
