The Order
Behind the Sacred
Temples are drawn before they are built — a mandala grid, a lotus of proportion, a kolam of symmetry. Order precedes ornament; the sacred is measured before it is carved.
- 01 Vastu Purusha Mandala — the cosmic grid
- 02 Lotus proportion & the golden bloom
- 03 Kolam — symmetry drawn at dawn
