Blog 2 Charles Correa (India) – Sabarmati Ashram

Sabarmati Ashram is open- air prayer ground. The building is located in Gujarat India. The hut was built by Charles Correa and has a lot of similarities and styles that are particular to Charles Correa. The open-air concept is very unique and is famously used by the architect. The material used to build this are wood and concrete.  Charles Correa was famous for using mostly concrete in his architecture and open- air concepts. Just by looking at this picture It looks like a small home, however, the back side of the building doesn’t have a roof and that is where the prayer ground is. I find this style of building to be so beautiful because of the freeing open- air concept.  I find this style of architecture to be very freeing and peaceful.
