### Urban Residence Architectural Design

Optimized for dense city plots using vertical spatial planning, custom privacy screens, and exposed concrete or stone finishes.

Typically ₹650-950 ₹ per sq. ft. of Built-up Area (estimate)

#### Design & Documentation
* **Concept to Creation:** Includes study of site energy, wind patterns, and light trajectory with physical scale models and 3D visualizations.
* **Permit & Construction Drawings:** Preparation of sanction drawings for local authorities and comprehensive Good for Construction (GFC) drawings with precision marking for columns and beams.

#### Signature Detailing
* **Material Specification:** Selection and detailing of materials like exposed form finished concrete, hand chiseled stone, or wire cut bricks. Includes design of shuttering patterns for concrete walls.
* **Custom Fabrication:** Engineering drawings for trademark filigree skins (perforated metal screens) that provide privacy in urban settings.
* **Fenestration:** Custom detailing for windows and skylights (linear incisions) to control light effects.

#### Integrated Interiors & Supervision
* **Civil Interiors:** Design of fixed elements including sculptural staircases (folded metal or concrete), built in masonry seating, and flooring layouts.

* **Supervision:** Periodic site visits by the project architect and milestone visits by partners to ensure adherence to high tolerance specifications.

### Luxury Villa & Vacation Home Design

Suited for terrain sensitive sites involving cantilevered structures, tree preservation strategies, and sustainable water systems.

Typically ₹900-1,250 ₹ per sq. ft. of Built-up Area (estimate)

#### Terrain Responsive Planning
* **Topographical Integration:** Design of structures that float, cantilever, or embed into sloping terrains.

#### Structural Aesthetics
* **Large Span Structures:** Design of living areas without columns, glass bridges connecting blocks, and cantilevered decks.
* **Roofing Systems:** Detailed design of non standard roofing including inclined concrete slabs and metal fabricated roofs for specific climate conditions.

#### Site Integration

* **Material Sourcing:** Guidance on procuring local indigenous materials like stone and timber.
* **Remote Monitoring:** Planned milestone visits to outstation sites for quality checks.

## About Architectural Design for New Construction

We see architecture as a slow, thoughtful journey. For us, the process is as important as the final building. We spend time understanding how people live and how a space might grow with them over the years. True comfort, not just luxury, comes from how you experience light, space, and honest materials every day.

### What Drives Our Work

- Natural light isn’t just a feature, it’s a material for us. We use skylights, slim window openings, and sunlit courtyards to give spaces character and mood.
- Materials like concrete, hand-chiseled stone, and custom metal screens aren’t hidden or disguised; they’re shown off for their natural beauty and the handiwork behind them.
- We pay attention to where a building sits - what’s around it, the history of the place, even the existing trees. This context-driven design shapes our projects, whether it’s a home or a public space.

### What We Build

We handle custom residential architecture, commercial spaces (like microbreweries with balconies for city views), and public landmarks. We don’t follow templates. Each project, like a museum that brings people in from the street or a house that grows with its owners, is a one-off.

### Our Philosophy

Not everything is instant. Good buildings come from persistence and celebrating the making, not just the result. We show the process, the rough textures, and the little marks left by human hands. That’s what gives a place its soul.

## Meet your expert

[Mathew and Ghosh](https://mytribe.in/architects_mathewghosh)

### My story

We’re Mathew and Ghosh Architects—Soumitro here, with Nisha. Bengaluru’s been our home for 30 years, watching the city grow, change, get noisier, and we’re in the thick of it. We don’t hide from the chaos, we try to find beauty in it. What really gets us going is the process, the people on site, the old buildings with stories waiting to be heard. Sometimes it’s like digging for treasure, not tearing things down. Architecture, for us, is a slow, meditative journey with the city.

### My work

- **Architectural Design and Conservation**: We design new buildings, restore heritage sites, and adapt old spaces for new uses. Adaptive reuse architecture and heritage building conservation are core to us.
- **Context-Driven Spaces**: Every project starts with the story of its place—brewpubs under flyovers, homes in the Nilgiris, all shaped by their surroundings.
- **Craft and Material**: We love honest materials like concrete and stone, and often create custom metalwork solutions for light and comfort.
- **Human-Centric Approach**: Buildings should grow with people. Our spaces are made to evolve, not stay static.
- **Team and Collaboration**: It’s never just us—our team and the craftspeople on site bring every project to life.
