Author(s):
Kabir Vajpeyi, VINYรƒS and VINYรƒS Society

Hosted by Kabir Vajpeyi, architect and creator of the pioneering BaLA (Building as Learning Aid) concept, this Masterclass explores how the spaces children inhabit โ€” at home, in schools, or in communities โ€” profoundly influence their growth and learning. The session invites us to rethink how thoughtful, sensitive design can transform everyday environments into spaces that nurture curiosity, play, and development.
