Hospitality & Community Architecture

The landscape of the Taj Yellow House is woven with art and tranquility. This courtyard features a traditional Goan 'balcao' (covered porch) and a bubbling water feature, creating a serene space that connects the indoors with the lush outdoors and pays homage to the region's heritage.

The Taj Yellow House, a restored Portuguese bungalow, showcases our commitment to sustainable hospitality. The design uses local materials, maximizes natural light and ventilation, and features a bright yellow facade that reflects regional traditions while reducing heat absorption.

The Lodsi Community Project for Forest Essentials is rooted in its local architectural language. We used locally sourced stone and vernacular construction techniques to create a modern facility that sits harmoniously within the Himalayan village landscape.

This project in a remote Uttarakhand village is an example of how good design can empower a community. By using local materials and labor, the facility not only gained global recognition but also generated employment and economic growth, proving that architecture can create profound social value.

The Lodsi factory is a self-sufficient, off-grid facility. This video explains how passive design strategies, solar power, and on-site water management make the building resilient and sustainable, supporting the community socially, culturally, and economically.

Our proposal for the 'A River in Need' project focuses on the rejuvenation of the Ganges. This rendering shows the rehabilitated ghats, which stabilize the riverbank while creating accessible, dignified public spaces for cultural and daily activities, fostering a renewed human-water interaction.

This rendering imagines a revitalized riverfront along the Ganges. The design incorporates shaded pavilions and multi-level steps, inspired by traditional ghats, to create a resilient and inclusive public realm that respects the river's cultural significance.

This concept for a project in the hills fuses rectilinear forms with a sweeping, curved roof. The design creates a dynamic harmony between the structure and the natural landscape, with viewing decks that offer panoramic vistas of the serene surroundings.
