Shashi Prabhu - 06-11-2014
Graduated from Bandra School of Architecture (now Raheja College of Architecture). After graduating in 1967, he decided to venture out on his own. Shashi’s milestone project arrived with a request from Professor MV Changadkar, a professor of English at RA Poddar College and the Joint Honorary Secretary of the Bombay Cricket Association.
They asked Shashi to design the Garware Club House for MCA, at a newly acquired ground in Churchgate, Mumbai. His next impressive project was to design Wankhede Stadium at a tender age of 26. The architect’s tryst with designing health care structures began in 1977. His first structure was a hospital designed for Thane Corporation, which was followed by several others in Pimpri and Chinchwad, with the most prominent being Lilavati in Mumbai.
He is currently proud to be associated with the latest Sir Harkishandas Hospital, Mumbai, promoted by Reliance Industries. His keen insight into the dynamics of health care structures is undeniable and well-recognized. Since its inception, Shashi Prabhu & Associates has grown substantially. With over a 100 employees, most of them experienced architects, the company has grown from strength to strength.
Shashi Prabhu’s sons, Amol and Atul are also part of the company and contribute significantly with their design, engineering, project management and financial analysis skill. The company undertakes projects on turnkey basis, which they believe will be the future trend.
