New Delhi, April 1 Architects and members of civil society Sunday
remembered British-born architect Laurie Baker as a 'Gandhian builder',
adept at building homes and not just houses for the poor at low cost.

his residence in Thiruvananthpuram, former president of the Indian
Institute of Architects (IIA) Balveer Verma told IANS: 'He was not a
mere architect, he was a Gandhian architect.'
