The author has posted comments on this articleSurojit Gupta & Sidhartha, TNN | Oct 3, 2013, 05.40AM IST NEW DELHI: After the tussle between local and foreign auditors and lawyers, it's now the turn of architects. The Council of Architecture (CoA), the regulatory body for the profession, has stepped up its fight against foreign architects practicing in India attracting severe criticism from several countries, including the US.
Although foreign architects are not allowed to practice in India, several entities were rendering services in the country, either directly or through tie-ups with local players. A 1972 law explicitly prohibits any foreign firm architect and the government, despite its keenness, has refused to open up the sector despite negotiations at the World Trade Organization (WTO).
Last year, as reported first by TOI, the Delhi high court had ruled that the approval granted by the Foreign Investment Promotion Board ( FIPB) to RSP Architects, Planners and Engineers, a Singapore-based firm, was not in line with the law.
This largely went unnoticed in India but has evoked strong reaction from foreign lobby groups and architects, which have raised a banner of protest and have gone to the extent of drawing parallels with the retrospective amendments to tax laws. They have told Indian ministers that the issue once again highlights India's unwillingness to open up its markets to foreign competition. Overseas architects are keen to tap into the booming real estate and infrastructure sectors in India.
CoA president Uday C Gadkari could not be reached for comment but council member Inderjit Singh Bakshi told TOI that the regulatory entity had taken up the issue with the government as "only those registered with the council can practice in India". Apart from those with degrees from recognized Indian architecture schools, the Architect's Act also recognizes qualifications from certain countries on a "reciprocal basis".
Government officials agreed with the CoA stance and said the law clearly bars foreign architects from practicing in India. "It is not part of our commitment to WTO and can only be done if there is qualification equivalence or mutual recognition," an official said. This means that architects from a foreign country can be allowed to practice in India on a reciprocal basis if the professional qualifications are accepted or architects from either country clear the stipulated professional tests. For this to happen, CoA and its foreign counterpart have to come to an agreement.
While foreign lawyers are explicitly banned from practicing in India, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India has entered into mutual recognition agreements with its counterparts in the UK, Canada and Australia for reciprocal membership arrangements.
Although the government has repeatedly tried to open up the professional services market to foreign players, industry bodies have prevented it from going ahead, citing threat to livelihood. Despite the "ban" foreign players have thrived with audit firms such as EY, KPMG and Deloitte taking over domestic firms. They have used their brands to get business but use the local firms for signing off on accounts. In case of law firms, several Indian players have tie-ups with overseas solicitors, who advise them but cannot appear in court.

Photoshop for Architects Tutorial - DVD
Course author Scott Onstott holds a bachelor's degree in architecture from the University of California at Berkeley and has spent more than a decade creating tutorials and writing books for architects and engineers. He has written a popular book entitled "Enhancing Architectural Models and Drawings in Photoshop" along with a book on Photoshop CS6 fundamentals. Olstott also writes a column for Photoshop User Magazine.
Olstott begins with a look at some fundamentals Photoshop tools helpful with project visualization. He explains some of the technical concepts underlying Photoshop such as bits, bit maps, channels, bit depth, and color modes, that make many of its advanced editing capabilities possible. The chapter also covers some basic tools useful in creating perspective, like cropping, scaling, and trimming.
Olstott then takes an in-depth look at photo development, beginning with using keywords organize image files, and moving on to explore the development tools in Photoshop's Camera Raw digital darkroom module.
As the course continues, he explores areas like non-destructive editing tools and techniques, merging multiple exposures and toning, which can help add realism and detail to images, before moving on to explain how to use Photoshop to produce digital illustrations that can be used in creating 3D models.
Additional chapters cover extracting objects from photos, enhancing 2D drawings, performing edits like retouching, masking, and replacement, which actually alter the image content, and finally a chapter on working with Photoshop images for creating camera angles and 3D cross-sections.

It may perform brilliantly as a showplace of medical devices and technology and as a magnet for health-related conventions, or its economic impact may land somewhere south of expectations.
However things turn out for Clevelands new Global Center for Health Innovation, which will have its official ribbon-cutting Tuesday, it represents an attempt by its architects to create an easily navigable exhibit center linked seamlessly with the new underground convention center it abuts.
The architects wanted their building to fit smoothly into the urban landscape of Cleveland's historic Group Plan District, to be flooded with natural light and to be filled with subtle symbolism based on medical science.
Above all, the spatial flow between the Global Center and the convention spaces below is what mattered.
We look at it all as one thing, architect Rafael Vinoly, the lead designer of the project for LMN Architects of Seattle, Wash., said of the Global Center and the below ground convention center. Even though perceptually it may look like two, the building is functionally one unit.
In other words, the Global Center is simply the above ground portion of the new convention center, which is largely tucked beneath the northern two blocks of the citys 12.6-acre downtown Mall.
Visitors entering the four-story atrium lobby of the Global Center at St. Clair Avenue are guided by a gently sloping ramp down to escalators that lead directly to the convention centers registration area beneath the Mall.
From an overlook at the foot of the escalators, one can see directly into the vast convention exhibit areas below, and back up to the Global Centers atrium above. No one should ever need breadcrumbs to retrace their path.
The overlook is also steps away from service elevators linked to the convention centers loading docks, which also serve the Global Center.
Wall panels nearby could be knocked out to provide connections to the proposed convention hotel Cuyahoga County aims to develop on the site of its aging administration building just to the north.
