And their acclaimed studio in NCR of Delhi, c28c, reflects their design ethos.

From concept to construction, every detail was dwelled upon so as to express and exhibit the environment-conscious philosophy of the office. A live canvas, the exhibit of materials, colors, textures and play of forms, make the studio a three-dimensional design laboratory and library.

It vividly narrates how they met challenges head-on, resolved the many labyrinthine issues and took on the responsibility of placing the building s architecture and its attitude in a contemporary Indian context. It shares the story of a gratifying journey of the design process and demonstrates how life can be lived through design.
