Minu Joshi
Architect
Sustainable Designer
Post completing her Masters in Theory and Practice of Sustainable Design from Cardiff University;UK, Minu started her own practice in Pune. Ecour Studio is her dream venture. She aims to make Ecour Studio an open platform for exchange of ideas and expertise. Her work place is an open office for a creative mind to come and pursue their art and share their knowledge. Her idea is to make collaborations possible with like minded creative people for a greater good.
Minu is also actively researching in the topic of Sustainable Transportation and has many papers published in national and international journals. She has also contributed to a book chapter published by Springer. Due to her love and interest in Humanities and History, she is currently working on a book for Architectural History.
Along with practice and research, Minu also taught as a core faculty at Brick School of Architecture and was one of the first members to be on board in 2013. This also gave her an exposure into the current education scenario and possibilities to experiment with the same. Soon she started another venture - Acube Studio which actively guides students to choose a correct creative field as their career as well as prepared them for the same.
Her journey is a lot about pursuing one's dreams against all odds.
