TARA Kotagiri: A Resort Reimagined

We see renovation as an act of rearchitecture. For the TARA boutique resort, we took a dilapidated facility in the Nilgiris and completely reshaped its form and purpose. The project involved adding a new floor, creating new facades with local materials, and landscaping the terrain to create a series of private, nature-focused dwellings that honor the soul of the place.

Structural & Material Explorations

Our work is a continuous exploration of form, structure, and material. We believe architecture should be experiential, and that often begins with bold structural decisions and a thoughtful material palette. This collection shows our process, from complex helical staircases that appear to float, to homes built around brick vaults and reclaimed wood.
