[View full gallery](https://mytribe.in/sapaarchitects/interior-design/gallery) Our approach is rooted in the philosophy of the 'Devrai'—sacred forests where we take only what is needed. From breathing new life into century-old edifices to crafting functional urban spaces, we blend traditional materials with modern necessity to create environments with soul. ## Photos and videos - ![We believe in honoring history while designing for the present.

We do not just build; we integrate. For example, in our restoration work, we meticulously document original China mosaic flooring patterns to ensure any modern additions coalesce seamlessly, respecting the structural integrity of the venerable edifice while introducing contemporary comforts. ### Our Philosophy of Resilience Our design practice is built on the concept of 'Devrai', the sacred forest. This is not just a poetic notion; it is a rigorous framework for how we manage resources and respect the built environment. We view every project—whether an industrial office in Nagpur or a heritage home in Lonavala—as an exercise in environmental stewardship. ### Heritage Restoration and Technical Depth Restoring a structure that has stood for over a century requires more than superficial repair. It demands an understanding of traditional joinery, lime plaster application, and the original architectural intent. When we restore Burma teak rafters or conserve China mosaic floors, we are maintaining a link to the past. Our team treats these structures as living entities, ensuring that HVAC retrofitting and modern structural reinforcements do not compromise the aesthetic soul of the building. ### Modern Urban and Industrial Design Our work in modern urban settings focuses on spatial intelligence. We use custom fluted glass partitions and clever joinery to transform restricted floor plates into flexible living environments. For our commercial projects, we apply a minimalist Scandinavian language, utilizing exposed ceilings and industrial materials to create workspaces that are both robust and light-filled. We do not believe in disposable design. We prefer materials that age with grace—original stone, salvaged wood, and metal—because they possess a history that new, factory-finished products cannot replicate. If you are looking to create a space that feels deeply connected to its context and purpose, we invite you to start a conversation. ## About Sejpal and Parekh Associates We are SAPA.
