Architecture Grounded in Context.
A research-based practice in New Delhi and Tokyo. We deliver experimental, context-sensitive architecture across institutional, residential, and urban scales.

Grounded in Theory
Our projects are grounded in theory yet tested through precise execution. We combine intellectual rigor with professional integrity to bridge the gap between academic research and built reality.

Materially Honest
We interrogate conventional sustainability, moving beyond checklists. We develop architecture that is environmentally responsive, materially honest, and contextually resilient to a changing world.

Enduring Impact
We aim to produce architecture that is meaningful today and capable of enduring tomorrow. Every project is an opportunity to question norms and expand architecture’s impact beyond the object.

The Method
A structured journey from abstract context to tangible reality, ensuring the vision survives construction.
01. Context
It begins before the sketch. We immerse ourselves in the site—tracking the sun, wind, and history. We define the true needs before searching for the solution.

02. Concept
We test ideas on paper and physical models first. By exploring multiple strategies in the studio, we eliminate uncertainty and risk before construction begins.

03. Detail
We source local materials but apply them with global precision. We prototype details—how glass meets stone—to ensure the tactile experience matches the visual ambition.

04. Construction
Architecture relies on execution. The Principals remain involved on-site, bridging the gap between the contractor’s hands and the vision to ensure the result is faithful to the design.
