A look into how we blend nature, art, and raw materials to breathe life into old structures and new dreams.

We believe a great space builds a great community. For the Toit brewery in Bengaluru, we used marquee lights and exposed structures to create an inviting, energetic atmosphere that has become a beloved city landmark.

This is where imagination takes flight. We transformed salvaged aircraft wreckage into the Aste Bar, using actual passenger seats and fuselage parts to create a truly unique and immersive experience.

Our Earth Alive project shows how industrial shipping containers can be reborn as harmonious living spaces. Here, a container is elevated into a watchtower, blending into the rewilded landscape and offering a new perspective on sustainable design.

The bones of an old building hold its memory. In this Coimbatore home restoration, we revealed the original brick arches and concrete frame, creating a dramatic, light filled core that honors the structure's past.

We see potential where others see waste. This split view shows our process: on the left, discarded metal scrap, and on the right, the finished, elegant rain chain it became for a boutique hotel in Chikmagalur.

Step inside the Toit brewery. This short film walks you through the warm, industrial space we designed, highlighting the interplay of exposed brick, rich wood, and natural greenery that encourages people to connect and linger.

Nature is our constant inspiration. We crafted these ant sculptures from recycled steel, bringing a touch of bio-inspired art to our studio wall and reminding us of the small, powerful forces that shape our world.

About Featured

We often get asked how we turn scrap—like aircraft parts or old shipping containers—into functional spaces. It is not just about aesthetics; it is about understanding the memory of the material and giving it a second life. When we start a project, whether it is a brewery or a family home, we look for what can be reused or restored before we ever talk about buying new materials.

This sunlit, Spanish-inspired courtyard is the heart of the home. We used patterned cement tiles and filled the space with plants to create a cool, comfortable, and serene spot for the whole family, including Dorai the beagle, to relax.8
We love using natural, breathable materials like this mud and lime plaster. It not only gives the wall a beautiful, earthy texture but also helps regulate the temperature, keeping the home cool naturally. The brass sink and blue countertop add a touch of modern craft.

This is a re-interpretation of a traditional courtyard. I used a terracotta jali screen to create a semi-enclosed space that feels both private and connected to the outdoors. The way sunlight filters through the screen, casting intricate patterns that shift throughout the day, brings the space to life.8
In this penthouse, I designed a helical staircase to be more than just a way to move between floors; it's a fluid, sculptural element. Bathed in light from a large skylight, its form contrasts with the clean, linear fluted wood wall, creating a focal point that is both art and architecture.
This is the Madhura residence, designed as two homes stacked together. I used compressed stabilized earth blocks (CSEB) and prominent sloping tile roofs to connect the design to the family's ancestral roots while creating a modern, functional urban home with a generous front garden.
The double-height lounge is the heart of the Siri residence. I combined a random rubble stone wall with warm wood ceilings and nature-inspired art to create a space that feels expansive yet intimate. It’s designed for family gatherings, with visual connections to the gardens and terraces on every level.

This view from the Radisson Resort in Lonavala captures the essence of our work. The architecture frames the natural landscape, creating a seamless connection between the built form and the surrounding topography, a principle that guides all our designs.10
For the BCG Headquarters in Mumbai, we reimagined the corporate environment. This view looks up through a 'skylit' circular courtyard, a core element that brings light and air deep into the vertical campus, echoing the industrial past of the city.
The Lateral Verandah House in Lonavala is designed to merge with the hillside. The unique timber frame structure and infinity pool create a space that feels both sheltered and completely open to the expansive views.
In the Sampurna Residence, we used a curving brick wall to create an 'animated streetscape' within the home. This element guides movement and defines space, transforming a simple corridor into an artistic and experiential journey.

This is the St. John's Medical College Hospital, a 100-bed facility I designed and managed. The image pairs the final building with its architectural section and elevation drawings, showing how a complex vision is translated into a tangible, functional structure.10
A view into a modern living room where functionality and comfort are key. The design uses a warm, neutral palette, clean lines, and thoughtful lighting, including a recessed ceiling feature, to create an inviting and spacious family area.
This space embodies my core belief in using local, sustainable materials. The exposed wire-cut brick walls and ample natural light create a warm, rustic, and energy-efficient city home with a distinct vernacular touch.

This before and after comparison of our TARA Kotagiri resort project encapsulates our entire philosophy. We see beyond the existing structure to envision a completely new experience, transforming a simple building into an architectural form that is in dialogue with the surrounding Nilgiri hills.7
The TARA resort at dusk, where carefully considered lighting highlights the new architectural forms and natural textures. We designed the pathways and structures to create a sense of discovery and privacy, crafting an immersive experience where the building settles quietly into the landscape.

This is the heart of my "House of Greens" project, a space designed to feel like an open pavilion. The double-height volume, exposed concrete ceiling, and full-length doors dissolve the barrier between the home and the garden, embodying my philosophy of connecting life with nature.10
For the Shiva Temple Complex, I aimed to create a modern spiritual journey rooted in tradition. This view from the entry pavilion frames the main temple at dusk, using contemporary design to evoke a sense of timeless reverence and tranquility.
In my "House Belaku" project, I used a brick *jali* screen to transform sunlight into a dynamic design element. This image captures how the perforated brickwork casts a beautiful, shifting mosaic of light and shadow, creating a serene atmosphere while ensuring privacy.
My goal is to create homes that are shrouded in green, not just surrounded by it. This exterior view of the "House of Greens" shows how we integrate planters and cascading greenery into the structure itself, making the landscape a living part of the architecture.
