Traditional Wisdom and Cane Crafts of Northeast India
MP Ranjan, Nilam Iyer and Ghanshyam Pandya, National Institute of Design
Rs. 370 for hard bound edition and Rs. 300 for paper bound edition
Many structures in the Northeast and other parts of the country depend on bamboo; indeed it is most sacrilegious to use concrete and steel for habitations in places where bamboo is, or could be, available in abundance. Modern designers and architects have not yet expended any real effort in that direction. This delightful book will encourage them to go further.
