His interest in exploring the concept of urban density was sparked by his intensive collaboration as a local architect with the Indian architect Rahul Mehrotra from Mumbai on the "Virchow 16" laboratory building on the Novartis Campus. The opportunities Christian W. Blaser had to accompany Rahul Mehrotra on his trips to India were an enriching experience on the subject, and evoked a reassessment of the Swiss understanding of urban density. It is only through this change of perspective that the subjectivity of the term becomes apparent and the question of social judgement in architecture is raised.
