A newly independent India, a new capital, and a young architect. Urmila Eulie Chowdhury was twenty-eight years old when she began working on the Chandigarh Capital Project, led by the legendary Le Corbusier. She soon became indispensable. The creation of a new city awakened in Eulie a lifelong commitment. She worked on sector planning, designed houses, buildings, and furniture, collaborating closely with Pierre Jeanneret. She also contributed to the creation of the cultural spaces that make a city a modern and cosmopolitan place. Eulie fought until the end to preserve her beloved Chandigarh. Outspoken, enigmatic, and ahead of her time, she was a figure of great influence.
