shifted from “why” to “when”

in terms of practising

responsible architecture. We

hope to create ‘biophilic

to update and upgrade

research activities. Every

project aims at exploring and

All our completed projects

have earned us numerous

Bestowed with architectural

hegemony of the past, post-

millennium India emerges out

of a societal dichotomy of

unabashed growth in real-

estate industry, equipped

with new-age technology

while struggling against

budgetary constraint, heavy

reliance over age old

construction technique and

absence of professional

outlook.

Our endeavour is to set free

built environment from the

prevalent crustacean

architecture and infill

sustainability through a

holistic approach of uniting

architecture, interior,

landscape, signage and

product design.

As with the other IMI’s, the campus at

Bhubaneswar offers the latest

facilities and amenities to its students.

The design is climate responsive and

uses locally available materials, like

laterite blocks. A sculptured wall in

the facade, with replicas from Orissan

temples, adds a local traditional touch

to the modern design. A central plaza

forms the focal point of the campus.

To create a varied screen we have

broken the glass facade with light

boards and eboards. This facade

serves to shield the building from the

sun, as well as plays with light and

shade to create an interesting interior,

as well as breaks the monotony of the

glass facade, creating a warm,

homely and interesting exterior. All

the rooms open onto the lawn,

ensuring adequate daylight and

exposure to nature, though the solar

influx does not heat them up

inordinately.

A rooftop garden serves to both

enhance the visual appeal of the hotel

façade as well as insulate the roof

from the sun, reducing air-

A residential colony for the busy

environmental requirements of the

site in mind. Built near the coast in a

flood prone area, the buildings are all

raised on stilts to ensure minimal

inconvenience due to water logging.

Keeping in sync with our pro-

environment designs, we have kept a

central green zone that flows through

the built up areas, ensuring that all

the units have access to it, while

surrounding a central water body that

helps in local microclimate

management. All the units are

articulated around a central service

core to ensure maximum wind and

The Site

Owing to the site constraints and a

requirement of space, DPS is a tall

integrate green areas has been the

driving design factor. The built

maximize natural light and ventilation

in the classrooms while shading the

courtyards from the harsh sun.

Courtyards surrounded by visually

an identity necessary for a place of

Akash International

School Kolkata

Client : Savitri Educational Foundation Principal Architect :

The objective of this project was to

design a facade for a school so that it

makes an impact amidst its generic

surroundings. Familiar shapes and

symbols are used as a bespoke

stencil screen around the building

mass to create a play of light and

shadow. The facade not only shades

the classrooms from the harsh sun

but also lends the school a distinct

identity.


The International Children Activity

Centre is a radical new take on how

we work with spaces and forms. We

have attempted to create a

multilayered space for children, where

fluid build forms are used to create 3

dimensional spaces. The three tunnel

structures are articulated around a

common center yet differ in usage

and design, creating variety and

layers of space for effective

interaction as well as privacy zones.

The use of coloured glass lends a

playful nature to the building, while

the clear glass panels ensure

adequate natural lighting in the

building.

This Pavilion built for a local socio-

religious festival in a small town on the

fringes of Kolkata. It was a temporary

structure to shelter an idol which was the

focus of this festival. Set amidst a

carnival atmosphere, the constant flux of

people was a factor considered while

conceptualizing its design. A notion of

continuous movement was its guiding

principle. Another factor to consider was

the reusability of the employed materials

after the event. Economizing was

important, especially because of the

constrained budget. This being a

community project, involvement of the

club members provided enthusiastic

manpower.

The installation was conceived using

locally available bamboo, painted in

rainbow colors to reflect the colour and

vibrancy of the culture while reflective

highlighted the same in the night as well.

The dark wood flooring of the rooms

lends richness to the interiors. Light

walls and light wood furniture give a

spacious feel to the guestroom.

Straight lines in furniture and spatial

quality give it a modern look.

Envisioned as the epitome of luxury,

the interior design of the common

areas of this high-rise residential

development portrays magnificence.

From the warm elegant lobby to the

lush indulging clubhouse,

Swarnamani exudes the underlying

theme of splendour.

The lavishly designed penthouses of

this 3-tower complex are truly the

pinnacle of Swarnamani.
