The Hindu : National : Laurie Baker, pioneer of low-cost houses, passes away

My good friends, Chitra and Vishwanath, architects of my house were inspired, guided by Laurie Baker quite significantly. In that sense, i have benefited directly from his remarkable work. They called him "architect to the poor", i wonder why just the poor!, it is architecture that is appropriate for everyone to follow (particularly the well to do).
