How do you build the best homes on the planet?This question has led me to put together an in-house team of architects and designers who have done some revolutionary work on two projects - Marathon Nexworld and Next School.Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I'll let them do the talking.

I was always insanely frustrated as a student. My rage against the system got its voice in the form of the attached '6 Problems' video that I wrote and directed myself. There had to be a better way. It took me 6 years of research and globe-trotting to find one. Its called Big Picture Learning. NEXT is India's first Big Picture Learning school.I lead an in-house design team to design and construct the school building. We do everything from the structural design to the interiors.I lead an in-house marketing team to do all the communication. We make everything ourselves - the logo, the brochure, the website, the animated movie, even the diaries, id cards, etc.On the educational front, I'm heavily involved in recruiting our teachers. I personally work with the oldest group of kids once a week. I run a couple of fortnightly professional development workshops where we constantly innovate, iterate and prototype new ideas.And of course, as the CEO, I handle the operations, finance and business side of the organisation (borrrrinng). NEXT takes up around 30-40% of my work life.
