A great mind...a great heart...a great architect. Thanks Laurie Baker for a great life lived!

[@wizjean]

Greatman of earth. Poorman dream realizer. Thank you for the good video

[@HariSankerV]

Laurie Baker was the pioneer of low cost architecture in Kerala. His style and principles are now emulated by a number of architects. However his message of avoiding excesses and harmony with nature needs to reach the masses, it is high time. In today's age of environmental deterioration, Baker's architecture shows us the way forward. Waiting for the full documentary.

[@36yovan]

*I had the privilege of being to his house in Trivandrum, India. Before that I met him at Coimbatore city in 2000 during the construction of Salim Ali Institute. His messages was buy essential items, no wastage, make use materials available in nature and thus follow simple lifestyle!🙏*

The man who changed the Indian houses to heaven.

[@srujanassy]

Hi any leads of architect who thinks on similar line of Mr.Baker .please share contact of genuine architects

[@rmathew3595]

If he is still alive and constructing buildings these days, most of the engineers and contractors would screw him up for his low budget ideas, as they cannot harvest considerable profit out of it.

[@ramanshetty2798]

And what makes you think builders in the 1970s,80s and 90s didn't try "screw" him up? Baker was physically attacked several times, threats on his life were made but he did not retreat one step. That's what makes his special to us in the architectural community. He had the guts to stand by his beliefs. You're right that they couldn't make money. In fact they refused to give him masons, carpenters, etc when he started so he went out and trained his own!

[@svarghese9424]

Very true
