The site of the Mumbai Artist Retreat on the other side of the Mumbai Bay, designed by Architecture Brio, is typical in that respect. Since it is relatively difficult to get to, it still has a rural, agricultural character. More so in contrast to the rest of Mumbai it still has somewhat of a shoreline to speak of. Here, the Mumbai Artist Retreat intends to become a place where artists can work in a spacious, natural environment. A place that is away from the heavy physical and psychological demands of the global metropole. However, with the skyline of Mumbai across the bay, it still feels connected with the city.
In this age of continuous innovation, a workplace needs to be as advanced in its offerings as the work carried out inside it. An architect’s intent is to always exceed expectations and provide innovative designs to best use the space provided to them and fulfill the vision of the client. Having said that, every organization wants a workspace that brings out maximum productivity from its employees but with changing times companies have started putting equal emphasis on the social environment surrounding them.

In spite of having designed Auditorium and Seminar Spaces of varied capacities and typologies acroos the country, we still found this project both, unique and challenging.
Unique because this is probably the only large capacity auditorium planned on the top three floors of a seven storey building. This one fact itself posed multiple design challenges which included integration and effective vertical segregation of the auditorium and allied spaces with the rest of the building which houses academic activities on the lower 4 floors. – RMM Designs

Trichy, a tier-2 city located in the central region of Tamil Nadu in India, is well connected, has affordable cost of living, offers good water yield and is a religious hub; therefore making the city ideal for senior living. Angelic Grace Home is a 30,000-sqft Ground +2 structure that was planned comprising 50 fully furnished rooms. Abundant natural lighting and ventilation, constraints on construction cost and community spaces for the elderly were factors that influenced the design approach. – Shanmugam Associates

Toy Story, Play School at Bangalore ~ Our approach was to defy the idea of closed classrooms, monotonous corridors which will lock our imaginations away for eight hours every day.
The Crescent School of Architecture occupies a relatively small lot of the 60-acre university campus, in Vandalur, Chennai. The project brief envisioned studio spaces along with lecture halls and administration areas – which we chose to augment with necessary ‘de-programmed’ spaces for collective working and gathering. This allowed for the exploration of redefining not only the nature of spaces found in an architecture school, but also offering us the possibility to inform the future pedagogic programme that it could accommodate.
Stay inspired. Curious.
