All these situations directed him to the establishment of The Architect’s Diary. Initially, it was developed as a website or a Digital Magazine with an aim to be one of the most interactive, being India’s first publication in the industry. However, things did not work in his favor and he had to shift to an interface that is user-friendly.
The website prevailed with zero investment, the money expended on its establishment was from personal savings of Siddharth. He used to work as a junior architect in the same industry at a commercial firm and managed to save money for his project. The website grew tremendously within such a short span of time.
It soon gained momentum as one of the esteemed platforms across India for designers, it then soon collaborated with varied social media channels to enhance its performance further. All the set targets were achieved by the team, and it kept on consistently working towards driving success. Siddharth’s college seniors acted as mentors in his project, and they kept trying and improvising new ways by reaching out to people who were interested in the field, and strived to cultivate a more faithful following among the design and architecture community.
In the year 2018, Ar. Aastha Bhayani engaged as the curator and Editor to provide desired clarity to the future plans of The Architect’s Diary.
