Adaptive Reuse: The 'Queensline' Floating Restaurant

This project is a prime example of my philosophy of adaptive reuse, where we transformed a Turkish river cruise boat into a high-end floating restaurant in Mumbai. The design involved complex structural modifications and a bespoke interior scheme using a palette of Indian teakwood and brass to reflect the nation's maritime history.

Urbanism & Public Spaces

I believe architecture has a responsibility to improve our shared urban environment. This selection showcases my work in tactical urbanism and public space design, from redesigning major transit hubs like Bandra Station to creating community parks and temporary cultural pavilions.

Residential & Retreat Architecture

My residential work focuses on creating homes that breathe and are in harmony with their natural surroundings. I specialize in sustainable architecture, using local materials and passive cooling techniques to design weekend retreats and primary homes that are both beautiful and environmentally conscious.

Our Design Process

My approach is hands-on and collaborative, blending traditional methods with modern technology. From initial conversations and hand sketches to detailed physical models and digital renderings, I explore every possibility to arrive at the most thoughtful and effective design solution.
