Glitz
Climate-wise craft
Walls that cool themselves
A façade of openings filters heat and draws air through — perforated brick as passive cooling, written into the wall.

The magazine
An Indian architecture & interiors publisher
Glitz is a monthly design magazine from Bhubaneswar — more than a decade in print, now with a public archive of projects, studios, interviews, and awards. We select built work for how it meets climate, craft, and construction, not for how well it matches a moodboard.
Search should land you on a building, a practice, or a call for entries — not on a generic interiors feed. Start with the project archive, read climate-wise craft for the editorial thesis, or open an award if you are here to enter. Print and digital issues live under Magazines. How we choose work is spelled out in the editorial policy.
Projects
Selected houses, interiors, and workplaces with photographs, credits, and a facts panel. Browse by city or by studio.
Magazine & interviews
Monthly issues in print and digital, plus conversations with architects and designers from the same desk.
Awards
Timed calls with jury review. Separate from the gallery: entering an award is not the same as submitting a feature.
