My Story
Namaskara! We’re Masons Ink from Bengaluru. Home’s not just walls to us, it’s got to breathe, you know? Courtyards - that’s our jam, letting in sun and fresh air. We’re always on site, hands muddy, building with our team. Super proud of our all-women masons - ‘Pengalaala mudiyaadhadhu edhuvum illai’ (Nothing women can’t do). We build with heart, earth, and a bit of stubbornness.
My Work
Architecture, Interiors & Reviving Spaces - We design homes from scratch, redo old places, and run workshops on sustainable construction.
Natural Rammed Earth & Mud-Lime Plastering - We use local materials - rammed earth walls, mud and lime plaster, bamboo wattle and daub.
Courtyard-Centric Architecture - Big fans of open courtyards, blending inside with outside, always chasing that natural light.
Vintage Door & Frame Reuse - Old doors, hundred years or more, get a new life in our homes. Old is gold for us.
Handmade & Imperfect - We love handmade, even if it’s not perfect. Little flaws make spaces feel real and warm.
