Teepoi presents the documentary ‘Kanade’ (2021) which is centered on the architect-brothers, Shankar and Navnath Kanade. The documentary is carefully curated and self-produced through all its phases, with mentorship from renowned architects. The production, as with all of Teepoi's documentaries, has been driven by passion rather than commercial intent. The film took five years to produce before it premiered at Designuru 3.0 in Bangalore on 20th December 2021. The film ‘Kanade’ captures the key aspects of their journey, including their upbringing, family life, education, profession and projects, among other milestones.

Teepoi is a media production company established at Bengaluru in 2008, founded by architects Karishma and Vandana and filmmaker Vishwesh.
The focus of Teepoi is to document and archive Heritage, Art, Architecture and Culture through visual media.

May 10th, 6-8pm at HU Berlin (in-person), room 315 (third floor) at IAAW, Invalidenstr. 118

The lecture & conversation series DWELLING TOGETHER brings together filmmakers and scholars working on questions of affordable housing in times of market-driven construction and lack of building land; architecture and infrastructure that enables humans (and potentially other species too) to live 'well' together - in cities, peri-urban or in rural regions.
