Whether it is creating a central courtyard to pull light into a narrow urban plot or choosing a material palette of raw concrete and reclaimed teak, our goal is to design a home that is truly yours. You will not find generic layouts here; we build around the flow of air, the movement of shadows, and how you will actually use the space. Our design process begins with a conversation about your site, your history, and your specific requirements. We believe a house should be a dialogue between the built structure and its environment. In projects like our 'Solid Void Solid' house, we focused on architectural fluidity, allowing private areas to anchor the corners while keeping public spaces open to the gardens. For our 'Boxed In House' project, we tackled the constraints of a narrow 7.6-meter urban plot by introducing an internal courtyard. This vertical void acts as the lungs of the home, pulling in daylight and creating visual connections between levels through a bridge constructed from repurposed teakwood. We prioritize material honesty over superficial ornamentation. You will see exposed brick, polished concrete, and natural timber in our work, not because it is a trend, but because these materials age gracefully and add texture to the living experience. We also focus on adaptive reuse. If you have an older structure, we look for ways to restore its soul while updating the electrical and structural bones to handle modern living. When you work with us, you receive a design rooted in context. We start with sketches and models, testing volume and scale until the layout feels right. Our involvement continues through construction, where we coordinate with our team to ensure the final build matches the vision we mapped out during the design development phase. ## About Thirdspace We are Praveen and Namrata from Thirdspace. We spend our days sketching ideas in Pune and Belagavi, trying to tease out the organic patterns of a neighborhood before we make a design move. For us, a home is not just a structure but a place that should breathe and connect to the outdoors.
