About Architectural Design
We shape spaces that feel alive, not just built. For me, architecture means tuning in to the land, the light, and the vibe of a place. Every project starts with listening - not just to clients, but to the environment itself.
How I Think About Design
I go for what I call 'Architecture of Resonance'. It's about making places that lift your spirits and feel calm, with a timeless look that fits right in. I use local roots and fresh, clean lines, always keeping ecological architecture at the core.
What Guides Every Project
- Nature-integrated home design: I weave buildings into their surroundings, not on top of them. This might mean a house wrapped around an old mango tree, or big windows that frame green views.
- Sustainability is just how I roll. Laterite, stone, lime plaster - I use sustainable building materials that last. I design for natural light and airflow, and I love turning waste into wealth with upcycled stuff.
- Materials matter. I pick things that age well and show their story, from wood details to textured concrete. It’s all about sensory living spaces you can feel and touch.
Where This Shows Up
- Homes that breathe: airy, open, garden-connected.
- Farmhouses and retreats: slow-living, earth-born, nestled into nature.
- Public/commercial spaces: simple, modern, built responsibly.
I’m always chasing spaces that feel right - not just look good.

My Story
We kicked off Saka Studio in '99, chasing the idea that architecture can be poetry. Not just walls and roofs—spaces that feel alive, you know? Awards are nice, but seeing a family light up in their new home, or catching sunlight dancing across a wall, that’s what gets us. Nature and old-school crafts like Sanjhi cutwork keep us inspired. Whether in a tiny Gujarat town or a hill spot in Coorg, we’re always hunting that ‘soul space’ vibe.
My Work
Our Services - We do architecture, interior design, turnkey projects, landscape design, and heritage home restoration.
Listening Architecture - We design by tuning in—to land, light, and you. Spaces that breathe, not just exist.
Modern Heritage - We blend Indian traditions with modern life, like Sanjhi cutwork interiors, for homes full of delight.
Materiality and Craft - We love earthy laterite walls, hand-chiseled stone, and local textures that give every space its character.
Sustainability at the Core - We use local materials, natural light, and rainwater harvesting—sustainable farmhouse design isn’t just talk for us.
