Stupid comment above!
Pak has beautifull architecture. And cities like Lahore, Karachi, Hyderabad look like they had contiguous urban planning unlike the stop-jerk-slum-go ishtyle in India.
1 thing I see is while Pak projects are as elitist as Indian projects, Pak projects are beautiful. I often wonder if bldg.'s in India r specially designed and built to be ugly , ... .. 'Nazr' naa lag jaee.
Architects probably don't make much money in India, but civil & structural engineers seem to make a killing. Bldg.'s seem to be more 'technical', functional. I'd go so far to say that despite other things Bombay has the greatest collection of ugly bldg.'s in the world. Wonder ... .. if that costs extra?
And then as if to compensate for that, nowadays they come up with ultra-slick bldg.'s. Jarring.
Pak is used to ongoing change. Afer coming out of the Sowiet era cold, India does hawe this vestigial disease of 'gigantiism' which, inflicts and overtakes everything. Good that their is giant market and clientele lined up for 1/2 decent bldg.'s. Their is mass momentum, mass manufacturing, mass user base caught in a cyclone spiral of development. So in a decade or 2, the Indian Infra - dividend will completely transform the place and image of the place. Something like Karachi, Lahore & Singapore; not China or Dubai. Not at all artificial but market driven. Is all of the development in Pakistan realistic, market driven ? I think so.
