Commercial and Conceptual Architectural Designs

Our conceptual process begins with 3D sectional studies that examine how light and air flow through a building, long before we select a single material. This allows us to resolve structural challenges, like managing volume in a split-level home or optimizing foot traffic in a commercial kiosk, ensuring that every design choice serves a clear function rather than being purely aesthetic.

The strength of a conceptual design lies in its ability to translate an idea into a physical reality. In our work, we often begin with the concept of Glocal architecture, which blends global modernism with vernacular Indian wisdom.

Take our work on the Belagavi Home. Our initial section drawings were not just for show. They were technical tools used to plan the split levels that allow light and breeze to sweep through the living areas. By using raw materials like basalt stone, we anchor the design in its immediate landscape while maintaining a contemporary language.

For commercial projects, our focus shifts to community and interaction. Whether it is a clubhouse lobby featuring tree-like pillars or a minimalist, brutalist-inspired food kiosk like The Potpouri, the intent remains the same. We design for the experience of the user. We look at how people congregate, how they move through a space, and how the architecture facilitates those social moments.

Our process is comprehensive. We use detailed renders to map out the interplay of shadow and texture, ensuring that the vision is fully realised before any construction begins. By prioritising spatial flow and natural ventilation, we create environments that are not just visually striking, but deeply livable and sustainable in the long term.
