Bio: Indu Chakravarthy

Characterized by an earnest desire to understand and attempt just about everything, Indu is a “creative generalist” in the best sense of the phrase: with hands-on experience with a wide range of arts and processes, she is passionate about seeking joy and beauty in the world. This pursuit has helped cultivate her perspective that there are many ways of being and a multitude of right answers. Her experiences push her to be more judicious and responsible in her use of resources, and to communicate with more empathy. Sustainability is of paramount importance in her work – fueled by decaf, bad puns and bollywood, she uses her various multi-hyphenate oxymoronic “ways of being” (global-local-multicultural-recycli-crafting, peer-sharing-community-loving-technology-testing, architect-urbanist-preservationist) to chase the pipe dream of a human scaled, equitable, joyful, playful, wonderful multi modal transit-oriented, urban, zero-net-carbon built environment.
