We do not chase awards, but we are deeply grateful when our commitment to sustainable, nature-connected design resonates with the broader architectural community.

We are proud that 'The Earth' project received a Special Mention at the Architizer A+ Awards 2025. This recognition celebrates the project's sustainable design, which uses CSEB blocks and dry-clad granite inspired by temple architecture.

'The Earth' was the Winner in the Environmental Conscious category at the Kohler Bold Design Awards 2024. The jury recognized its innovative use of locally sourced materials and sustainable techniques that minimize environmental impact.

Our Aqua Pool & Spa project was nominated for Building of the Year 2025 by ArchDaily in the Healthcare Architecture category. This nomination acknowledges its unique contribution to creating spaces that promote wellness.

The Aqua project also received a Commendation at the Trends Excellence Awards for its exceptional integration with the surrounding hills. The design was praised for its fluid forms and commitment to enhancing well-being in nature.

About Awards & Recognition

Recognition is always a byproduct of the process, not the goal. When juries at platforms like Architizer and Kohler honored projects like The Earth or Aqua Pool & Spa, they were validating the honest use of local materials—like CSEB blocks and ferrocement—and the meticulous effort to let architecture disappear into the landscape.
