The Aditya Prakash Foundation, is a family foundation, dedicated to supporting research and study of contemporary Indian architecture and urbanism, particularly modern architecture and sustainable urban design. The AP Foundation is inspired by the life and works of Aditya Prakash (1923-2008), a first generation Indian modernist. Aditya Prakash was an architect, urbanist, artist, sculptor, furniture designer, published writer, academic and above all a humanist. He believed in the integration of knowledges in service of the built environment, and was amongst the first advocates for ‘self-sustaining human settlements’ in India.
