Our Featured Architectural Work
A glimpse into our world of design where light, earth, and raw materials come together to create spaces that breathe.
We believe light is a building material. Here in our Kaattu Veedu project, sunlight filters through the tiled roof, creating an ever changing pattern of light and shadow on the lime plastered walls, making the space feel dynamic and warm.
This is Earthsong, an experience center we designed to feel like it grew right out of the land. The minimalist, earth-toned structure is reflected in the water, creating a moment of pause and connection with the environment before you even step inside.
For this luxury villa, we designed a double height living room that balances grandeur with a cozy, inviting feel. The statement chandelier from Klove Studio acts as a centerpiece, while the subtle tones and plush furniture create a space of royal comfort.
Get to know our principal architect, Shivani Kumar, in this episode of XS Unplugged. She shares her thoughts on design, her love for light as a material, and gives a peek into our studio life and creative process.
Sustainability is at the heart of our work. In this bathroom at Kaattu Veedu, we used locally sourced terracotta pots as fillers in the concrete slab ceiling, reducing concrete usage and adding a unique textural element that connects to an open air courtyard.
We designed the Brigade Valencia marketing office to be a welcoming space, inspired by the palaces of southern Spain. The series of arches glows with warm light at dusk, creating an inviting facade that moves beyond the typical cold corporate office.
It's all in the details. For our own penthouse, we played with textures and light, seen here as sunlight dapples across the terrazzo countertop, highlighting the warmth of the wood and cane weave details in the bathroom.
About this collection
We don’t believe in mass-producing homes. Every project here is a chance to experiment with raw textures and light, whether it’s using terracotta pots in the slab for natural cooling or designing with lime plaster, so your space feels like it has a heartbeat.
Our design philosophy is straightforward: minimalism, context, and light. When you look at our work, like the Kaattu Veedu project, you will see earth blocks and Mangalore tiles. That isn't just for aesthetics, it is climate engineering. We use solar path mapping and volumetric studies so the house cools itself naturally, which helps keep those energy bills low.
Whether we are working on a luxury home or a commercial office, we focus on the big idea first. We sweat the details, from the fabrication of custom metal screens to the alignment of brickwork. We handle everything from concept drawings to site supervision, ensuring that the vision you see in the renders is what actually gets built on site. If you are looking for a home that feels open, light, and grounded in the landscape, let’s talk.
