In the absence of any communication exchange, especially in the design world, a new initiative SPOTlight will help young Indian architectural firms garner the visibility that they deserve. SPOTlight is an initiative that will open up avenues for emerging architectural design studios to get visibility both nationally and globally. The opportunity allows the studio to avail complimentary services from both Andre Fanthome Photography and Epistle Communications for ONE ARCHITECTURAL PROJECT.

We love what we do and we’d like channel our capabilities to showcase great talent and help you get recognized for the work that you do.
