About

We believe a building should tell a story, not just stand there. My team takes projects from the first sketch to the final nail, making sure the original idea survives every step. We don’t just hand over drawings and walk away - we stay on site, sorting out every detail ourselves.

Listening to the Space

I treat every site, especially old buildings, like a living thing with its own memories. Sometimes it’s less about creating, more about uncovering what’s already hidden there. We often spend days scraping back plaster or checking out old beams, figuring out what’s worth saving before building anything new. It’s slow and sometimes messy, but I can’t do it any other way.

Obsessed with Making

  • I’m picky about materials. I like using what suits the site - sandstone, black basalt, old Burma teak, even terrazzo when it feels right.
  • We revive old-school building methods, not just for the nostalgia, but for sheer quality.
  • For crumbling structures, we go all orthopedic - patching, pinning, and shoring up what’s left before adding anything new.

Start to Finish

You’ll see us on site, not just in the office. We handle integrated architectural project delivery and all the headaches that come with it, so the building actually fits the land and its history. Every project’s an experiment, and honestly, not everything goes smooth. But that’s the only way I know how to work.

My Story

Studied at Cornell, came back home to Bombay—felt lost, honestly. That confusion pushed me into questioning what architects really do. I don’t see myself as some grand 'author', more like a catalyst. Nature leads, we just try to keep up. 'Form Follows Life'—not just a line, it’s how we work. Sometimes the land says something, you just have to listen. Plant seeds, see what grows. No fixed endings, just the search.

My Work

Design & Build Services - We work on architecture and interiors—private homes, villas, commercial HQs, and turnkey projects.

Listening to Place - We start with silence on site. The land, climate, and history guide us, not pre-set plans.

Adaptive Reuse of Heritage - Restoring old Bombay buildings is like archaeology—careful, respectful, sometimes messy, but always honest.

Handmade & Sustainable - We use local, low-impact materials—brick, stone, terrazzo. Handmade stone architecture is our thing.

Design That Feels Right - Good design should feel like it belongs—essential, natural, not forced. It needs spirit.
