My Story
We started RMA Architects back in 1990, one foot in Mumbai, one in Boston. Our thing? Buildings that actually feel alive, not just concrete boxes. Like, for LMW HQ in Coimbatore, we mixed old-school courtyards, artists, and even scrap metal from the factory to make those Mughal jaalis. In Hyderabad, we ditched the boring glass box for a custom-cast façade with plants—handmade in a village, not some factory. Whether it’s a private museum in Alibaug or a campus in Basel, we always try to make spaces that breathe, that sit quietly but powerfully in their place.
My Work
Architectural Design Services - We design homes, retreats, museums, offices, even retrofit old buildings. Each project gets its own vibe.
Context-Driven Architecture - No copy-paste jobs here. Every building is shaped by its location and climate, so it just fits.
Integrating Courtyards & Nature - Courtyards, greenery, light, water—these help us make spaces that connect people to nature’s rhythm.
Materiality and Craftsmanship - We use local stone, traditional stuff, and work with artists for custom details—like that custom-cast façade.
Beyond the Building - We want our places to spark conversation and connection, not just stand there looking pretty.
