The Tropical House. The Embassy of Switzerland in New Delhi

The Swiss Embassy in New Delhi, opened in 1963, is an excellent example of prestigious Swiss architecture and Swiss-Indian collaboration. Hans Hofmann and Walter Rüegg's Embassy building, and the personal Quarters by Achyut Kanvinde and Shaukat Rai in the Embassy complex, show a deep commitment to local cultural, building, and climatic conditions. 200 p.: Fot, b/w, color ., 31.5x22 cm., duramater lids
