Working in Mumbai is a critical reflection on thirty years of the
practice of RMA Architects. Rahul Mehrotra weaves a narrative to
connect his multiple engagements in architectural practice,
including teaching, research, documenting, writing and exhibiting
since the establishment of the practice in 1990. The book is
structured around the subjects of interior architecture, critical
conservation, and work and living spaces that straddle the binaries
of the global and the local as well as the rural and the urban.
While the book is a portfolio of the selected works of RMA
Architects, the projects are curated so as to unravel and clarify
the challenges faced by architects in India and in several parts of
the "majority" world where issues related to rapid urbanization and
the impacts of global capital are among the many that dispute
conventional models of practice. Working in Mumbai is used
emblematically to interrogate the notion of context and understand
how the practice evolved through its association with the city of
Bombay/Mumbai.
