Huta's letter to The Mother in 1965 inspired the creation of Matrimandir; it was to Huta that The Mother first explained Her concept of Auroville's town-plan.
The Mother : Contact Auroville
Huta had a strong connection with Auroville – a letter of hers to the Mother in 1965 inspired the creation of Matrimandir, the Mother’s Shrine; and it was to Huta that the Mother first explained, with sketches, her concept for the town-plan of Auroville. In 1966 Huta produced the painting which the Mother named ‘The Spirit of Auroville.’ All this is told in her books 'Matrimandir the Mother’s Truth and Love' and 'The Spirit of Auroville'.

Gloria wrote to me on 2.10.75:
Dear Huta,
Thank you for your sweet letter and your love for all of us.
The only reason of our silence is that on the 1st October we have started a new phase of the Matrimandir: the dodecagon of the Mother's Shrine. It was nice and meaningful to receive your letter the same day. Piero has been and still is very busy preparing all the drawings for that and for the last portion of the pillars to reach the top and close the structure with the last ring. This will be the most difficult part to be done, and we enjoy testing ourselves as instruments of the Mother, for Her, Her Victory, in spite of everything as you said.
In this last time several new people of good will have come to work in the Matrimandir building and gardens, but we need more and more, because the work is a lot. Yes, it is very good that at least many trees have been planted. As soon as we are free to visit you, we will let you know.
With love
Gloria
