From thriving civilizations, we learn how architecture acts as a catalyst to human evolution. All modern-day inventions are today made possible when ignited minds work under one roof, but not many realize that thousands of years ago when the shelter was invented it satisfied a primordial human need. This invention has stood the test of time and has evolved to a much more ambitious scale. Buildings now are very complex products, from imagination to realization the process holds tremendous challenges that are constantly improving this important invention. Over thousands of years different schools of thought have emerged around the process of creating shelters, today the very idea of creating architecture attracts a wide range of professionals offering their piece of mind to create shelters. Hence, it becomes very important for Architects and Planners to understand Society, Economy, Planning, Ergonomics, Aesthetics, Psychology, Metaphysics, Building Services, Culture, Spirituality, Climate, Technology, Materials, and much more.

Sadhguru says, “Ultimately, a home is a space that is supposed to turn you inward and allow you to experience that there is only one home, which is within." Indian art and science of creating shelters are so much evolved that not only do we create beauty and utility but also know how to make it a living entity, through Consecration or Prana-pratishtha. The buildings designed by Sadhguru at Isha Yoga Center, Coimbatore, and his other spiritual centers are a modern work of our age-old heritage and is truly a Heritage of the future. Our work tries to extend this kind of architecture beyond spiritual centers and incorporate such ideas in common buildings, and it is not for the first time that such ambitions are being nurtured, city of Kashi was one such project where the entire city was built to be a consecrated space. Sadhguru says, "Kashi is man-made Kailash", it is one of Sadhguru's visions to make the entire world a consecrated space.

Apart from consecration, Sadhguru's visions for Architecture and City Planning are also one-of-a-kind and ingenious. Sadhguru says, "Architecture is just a play of geometry. Creation is fantastic architecture and my architecture is just a small imitation of creation, straight from nature." His idea of One Building City, where minimum land area is used for man-made construction and the maximum area is given to create landscapes, forests, water bodies and where nature is allowed to bloom; is a very practical way of creating sustainable cities and future civilizations. Our work tries to make his visions a possibility and inspire other organizations and institutions to participate in this noble cause.

Lucknow and the oriental culture have their own influence on our work. A city which is flanked by Kifayat Ullah's Asafi Imambara, Martin's Constantia, and which happens to be the adopted home of Walter Burley Griffin, Lucknow, in modern times has somewhere lost its finesse to commercialism. The sophistication of Art, Music, and Architecture that the city is known for needs to be revived in a modern voice. Our work is always rooted in culture and tries to create new benchmarks that are worthy to be preserved for years, that can express the epitome of our times to future generations, just like those treasures that express the city's rich history to us today.

Our association with Lucknow's La Martiniere College is also an old and special one. A 175-year-old institution and a 250-year-old legacy, La Martiniere is an integral part of Lucknow's history and culture. It happens to be our very first inspiration and holds a special place in our work too. Designed with innovative techniques in all respects, La Martiniere College and Constantia are Lucknow's pride ever since they were built. We at Yogleela not only admire this wonder of Lucknow but also learn from it and this makes our work special too.
