In response to a question on the kind of understanding Swanzal Kak Kapoor developed that led her to move on to set up her practice, she talks about the events that preceded her exit from Revathi Kamath’s team. She talks about her relationship with the construction teams, contractors as well as her employees. She recalls the drawing quality of the studio and remarks how they were impeccable as one of the main mediums of communication with the construction team. 

She recalls how Revathi had a big heart and a short temper, which she carried through in her interactions with clients. Swanzal elaborates on what she observed of Revathi’s design approach, noting how she took a bodily approach rather than an intellectual one. She goes over awards and nominations, recalls their milieu and context, and how they were received in the media. Swanzal also reflects on Revathi’s awareness of the negative impact of her construction projects on the historical and environmental surroundings of the site. This led her to often cap the number of projects she took up in a particular zone. 

Moving on to projects that didn’t receive due recognition, she mentions the Tribal Museum in Bhopal. She moves on to her involvement with the Anandgram project and the impressions of the creative positioning of the elements of the space. Swanzal concludes on what she recollects of Revathi’s impressions of other architects, including her critical view of Rajeev Sethi’s work with Indian crafts. She closes by summarising her observations from her time working with Revathi Kamath and as well as her reflections.
