Spaces with a soul, built by hand.

“Where architecture meets artistry, craft becomes home.”

Girikunj is a contemporary residence conceived as an unfolding composition of form, material, light, and landscape. Its architecture is rooted in restraint, yet carries a quiet richness through proportion, texture, and craftsmanship. The defining expression is its origami-inspired three-dimensional stone façade, whose folded surfaces create depth across the elevation and let sunlight shift continuously through the day.

Beyond the façade, the interiors unfold through a palette of natural wood, marble, stone, and lime plaster. Formal living spaces flow into intimate family areas, while a sculptural staircase atrium draws movement, light, and art into a single vertical volume. A neoclassical kitchen, an immersive theatre, and an indoor pool each create a world of their own.

Art is embedded within the experience of the home rather than added to it — bespoke furniture, handcrafted surfaces, and a hand-painted children's room give every space its own identity. Outside, gardens soften the stone geometry and a cascading water wall brings sound and reflection. Girikunj is ultimately a study in contemporary living shaped through material honesty, craft, light, and proportion.

“A contemporary expression of heritage, where memory finds a new architectural language.”

Shivarti House of Mewar explores the quiet relationship between heritage and contemporary living. Set within a 7,000 sq. ft. plot in Mewar, the residence draws from the elegance of neoclassical architecture while translating its vocabulary into a home that feels personal and distinctly of its time. A beige-and-white palette, fluted columns, and ornate cornices bring classical proportion, while a monumental 10-foot hand-beaded teakwood entrance introduces craftsmanship at an intimate, human scale.

Inside, architecture unfolds through a sequence of scale and light. A double-height porch becomes a space for everyday rituals and family gatherings, while the central dining hall rises beneath a sculptural curved staircase. A perforated wall filters the southern light into shifting patterns, and a double-height pooja room introduces a quieter moment of stillness and contemplation.

At the rear, a boutique and office extend the family's professional life, each with its own palette yet connected to the larger narrative. Shivarti does not recreate the past; it distils the essence of heritage into a contemporary language — craft becomes memory, light becomes movement, and material becomes identity.

“A home becomes meaningful when architecture creates space for people to come together.”

Aikyam is a 3,700 sq. ft. contemporary residence conceived for a multigenerational family with a desire for warm, nature-inspired living. The architecture is composed through a deliberate relationship between masses, voids, and scale, while lines become a recurring language — appearing across the staircase, flooring, grills, and walls to create a subtle rhythm that moves through the home.

The façade establishes a timeless material character through Kadappa black stone, metal, and wood, allowing depth to become the primary ornament. Within the double-height volume, a carefully positioned northern window captures the changing quality of daylight, casting shifting shadows through the day. At its heart, the double-height living space becomes the social centre of the home, connecting levels and bringing the family into visual proximity.

Indian Dazzle marble meets imported Armani Brown marble across the flooring, creating a rich yet grounded composition. Bedrooms embrace restraint, letting proportion, material, and colour take precedence, with teal accents and deep green organic patterns bringing the language of nature indoors. Aikyam demonstrates ADVAIT's belief that luxury need not depend on excess — richness achieved through restraint.

“When space is limited, imagination becomes the most powerful architectural tool.”

Mehta Residency is a study in making a compact home feel remarkably expansive. Within a narrow 1,100 sq. ft. floor plate, the design demonstrates how intelligent planning can turn spatial limitation into architectural clarity. Long vision windows extend the perceived length of the rooms, full-height doors open generous connections between spaces, and carefully positioned openings carry daylight deep into the residence.

The interiors follow a restrained material language, where light tones create openness and every piece of furniture is placed with purpose. One of the defining elements is the marble floor: an intricate inlay inspired by terrazzo, translated into elongated linear geometry that draws the eye forward and enhances the perceived length of the space. Flooring becomes more than a surface — it becomes an architectural device.

Natural light is treated as a material throughout, with skylights introducing daylight from above and composed silhouettes creating moments of shadow and depth. The residence reflects ADVAIT's belief that luxury is not determined by scale, but emerges through proportion, precision, and restraint — a small home made expansive through architecture.

Earthen Nest is a contemporary sanctuary rooted in natural, vernacular living. Warm timber, earthy beige, natural stone, and terracotta set a calm, grounded mood. Lime-plastered walls, cane, carved wood, and gentle arches celebrate the hand of the artisan. Light, texture, and the landscape flow through every room, making a home built for slow, meaningful days.

Modern Casa is a contemporary home designed to feel warm and effortlessly livable. Natural wood, fluted panels, and stone-inspired surfaces meet matte black and rich teal for a balanced, sophisticated palette. Curved forms and bespoke furniture add depth while keeping the look clean and uncluttered. The result is a timeless, layered home full of quiet character.

“When architecture carries character, every detail becomes part of the story.”

Designed by ADVAIT, this bungalow explores how contemporary living can remain deeply connected to craft, culture, and nature. The façade establishes its identity through an interpretation of traditional woollen-sweater weaving, carved into warm Mocha Cream Indian stone and punctuated by three illuminated circular details inspired by buttons. A full-height teak entrance adds warmth, while cascading terrace creepers soften the sculpted stone.

Inside, the design moves between youthful energy, refined luxury, and quiet contemplation. The first floor becomes the social heart of the home, with living, dining, and kitchen composed as connected experiences. The master bedroom introduces understated richness through carved timber and refined textures, while the pooja room becomes a moment of stillness expressed through carved Vietnam White marble. The kitchen reflects the client's deep understanding of modular design, with a considered mauve palette, white cabinetry, and grey quartzite.

Across the residence, material choices remain restrained yet tactile — marble, timber, leather, granite, and lime-inspired surfaces bring depth without excess. The staircase becomes a sculptural centrepiece, and the terrace washroom extends the experience through a jacuzzi, steam zone, and lounge. Here tradition is not replicated but reinterpreted, and luxury is expressed through proportion, craftsmanship, and material intelligence.

“In the old city, the greatest luxury is not what is added. It is what is remembered.”

The Luxury Tiger is a boutique hospitality retreat shaped by the character of the old city of Udaipur. Positioned along the lake with a privileged façade towards its timeless waterscape, the property is conceived as an intimate encounter with Mewar's architectural memory, where every room opens towards a carefully framed view. Rather than replacing the existing structure, the design restores its spirit, letting the original character remain visible alongside contemporary comfort.

Each floor is dedicated to a single expansive guest room of roughly 800 sq. ft., designed to accommodate up to five guests. No two rooms follow the same expression; each is curated around a different facet of Mewar's Rajput culture through timber craftsmanship, traditional artwork, tactile fabrics, and collected objects. Wood forms a recurring thread throughout, and art is treated as an integral part of the architecture rather than decoration.

The washrooms become destinations in themselves — carved stone, handcrafted tiles, and rich textures create spaces closer to private galleries than conventional hotel bathrooms. At the ground floor, a boutique souvenir and jewellery store extends the cultural narrative. The Luxury Tiger is ultimately a celebration of Mewar through hospitality — not simply a hotel, but an invitation to experience the old city slowly.

“A modern ode to the Portuguese architectural legacy.”

The Balcão House is a 6,800 sq. ft. recreational weekend home, with roughly 3,500 sq. ft. of built-up area, envisioned as a relaxed tropical retreat rooted in the charm of Goan-Portuguese architecture. The four-bedroom villa is carefully planned within an irregular plot, making use of every corner through landscaped pockets, verandahs, pathways, and recreational spaces so that no part of the site feels leftover.

The elevation combines earthy stucco walls, natural stone, and warm terracotta roof tiles with vibrant architectural accents. Traditional Portuguese elements — Balcão-style social porches, deep verandahs, Cantarias stone surrounds, wrought-iron railings, half-round arches, and layered sloping red-tile roofs — establish a strong regional identity, while tall arched openings and an Algarve-inspired chimney detail add rhythm and elegance. Inside, neutral earthy floors and walls are set against vibrant coloured doors: a series of foyer arches leads the eye toward statement olive-green doors, with weathered wood, pottery, and framed artwork building a warm Mediterranean mood.

The garden forms the recreational heart of the villa — a curved swimming pool, lush lawn, tropical planting, stone boundary walls, and outdoor seating create a private, resort-like setting. A semi-covered spa pavilion offers an intimate retreat, while the machan above it becomes an elevated leisure space overlooking the garden, where architecture, landscape, colour, and outdoor living merge into a relaxed Goan escape.

“Good interiors do not make a space feel larger. They make every moment within it feel considered.”

JITO House Udaipur is a 1,500 sq. ft. corporate interior conceived by ADVAIT as an exercise in clarity, precision, and spatial intelligence. With a compact footprint, the project explores how thoughtful planning can create an environment that feels composed, generous, and contemporary. The design begins with space management: every surface, passage, and piece of furniture is considered as part of one continuous interior language, creating visual breathing room through clean lines and integrated storage.

Light becomes an important tool in shaping the experience. A restrained palette of warm whites, soft greys, and natural timber tones lets available light travel across the interiors, while darker accents introduce depth and rounded edges soften the geometry. A conference room seats thirty-five with contemporary technology, the chairman's cabin offers an interactive setting for ten, and a lounge adds an informal layer of hospitality within the corporate environment.

Bespoke furniture defines several key moments — the reception desk combines rounded forms with warm timber and a tactile stone surface, while integrated elements keep technology and storage discreetly absorbed into the interior. The material palette remains intentionally timeless: wood introduces warmth, stone adds permanence, and carefully placed dark details provide contrast. A corporate interior designed not merely for work, but for interaction, leadership, and connection.

“When material becomes architecture, the workspace becomes an experience.”

Office of Dazzle Marble explores the expressive potential of natural materials within a contemporary workplace. Conceived around the inherent character of Dazzle marble, the interior becomes a study in texture, form, light, and craft — recognised by ELLE as one of its most-read design stories. The palette remains deliberately earthy, with locally quarried marble sitting alongside teak, cane, brass, and lime plaster.

The most compelling moments emerge through transitions: precisely fluted marble shifts into the softer curves of lime plaster, rock-finished stone meets polished surfaces, and the visual weight of teak is balanced by the delicacy of cane. The reception establishes this language from arrival, with rock-finished marble walls forming a sculptural backdrop that conceals the staff entrance. Within the executive office, raw lime plaster creates a tactile counterpoint to smooth marble flooring.

Sustainability is embedded within the material choices — locally quarried marble reduces transportation, responsibly sourced teak brings durability, and renewable cane reinforces the handcrafted character. Across the office, Dazzle marble appears in varied finishes, becoming walls, furniture, and architectural detail. The material is no longer simply part of the interior; it becomes the interior.

Embarking on a journey of modernity and sophistication, this experience store balances the trade of quartz and exotic stone with a raw, minimalist sensibility.

Metal-frame glass partitions offer openness while maintaining acoustic and visual privacy, and vignettes throughout serve as a medium to display products. The palette enhances a metal-and-wood dynamic: neutral tones dominate, warm wooden hues provide grounding, and a metallic grey finish adds modern sophistication, with strategic pops of olive green on accent walls.

The entry lobby showcases different quartz applications, while kitchen and vanity vignettes create an experiential concept for clients. A geometrical wooden ceiling creates a drama of light and colour, and walls finished in Dholpur stone texture keep a raw visual balance across the space. The director's chamber features a writing desk with a geometrical metal base and a dyed metallic Armani veneer top, set against wooden shelves strung together in a metal structure.

Open workspaces with sleek, ergonomic desks and wooden-plank flooring express a minimalist approach, while metal-and-wood partitions keep the space breathable and private at once. The result balances the chic, the organic, the minimalist, and an industrial warmth.

“An experience is crafted long before a product is seen. It begins with the journey.”

DONA is not conceived as a conventional kitchen showroom, but as an experience where architecture, branding, and strategy work together to change how a customer encounters a product. The store begins with a carefully choreographed arrival: a restrained palette of blue and beige establishes an entrance lounge, where arched interventions, a coffee bar, and a distinctive brand wall create an atmosphere closer to hospitality than retail.

The planning is deliberate — sightlines are controlled, products are positioned with intent, and every transition is designed to create curiosity. Wardrobes, discussion areas, digital windows, and kitchen environments become chapters within a larger narrative. The monochromatic mocha kitchen reduces visual noise to let material and craftsmanship speak, while parametric surfaces and evolving shadows ensure the space reveals itself differently as one moves through it.

At DONA, branding is not applied to architecture but embedded within it: product placement becomes storytelling, spatial planning becomes communication, and lighting becomes direction. As the format evolves and finds itself considered alongside internationally recognised work, the project reflects a larger ambition — to place Indian experience design within a global conversation. The result is not simply a store people visit, but an experience they remember.

“Good design is not what you see first. It is what you continue to feel after you leave.”

Crystal Couture was imagined through the eyes of an artisan, where beauty lies not in excess but in the sensitivity of every detail. The intention was a boutique that feels composed, intimate, and quietly memorable, allowing fashion to exist within an environment that has its own identity. The design begins with a restrained palette of creamy whites, warm beiges, and muted greys, creating a stillness that gives the garments room to breathe.

Marble brings permanence and refinement, while textured walls, soft rugs, and tactile surfaces introduce a more human quality. Brass and chrome appear sparingly, catching light and adding a subtle contemporary edge. Display shelves, hanging systems, and mannequins are treated almost like objects in an exhibition — carefully composed to create pauses, frames, and moments of discovery.

Light is perhaps the most delicate material in the space: daylight shifts across the surfaces while concealed illumination brings attention to fabric, colour, and form. What makes Crystal Couture distinctive is its restraint — nothing is placed merely to fill a wall. The result feels less like a store and more like a carefully crafted world, where the quiet details slowly become the ones remembered.

“Experiencing Architecture, Before It Becomes Home.”

The Currasso Experience Store is envisioned as more than a premium showroom. It is a space designed to make people feel, experience and understand the product before they choose it. Here windows and doors are not treated as objects on display but as living elements of architecture that shape light, views, movement and everyday experience.

The design language follows an understated luxury, with lime-finished walls, natural textures and carefully framed architectural moments. Since the existing space receives little natural light, a strategically positioned skylight brings daylight deep inside and recreates the emotional quality of an open-to-sky courtyard. As the light shifts through the day it gently transforms the surfaces and atmosphere of the store.

The products are experienced in a real architectural setting rather than simply displayed. Different window colours, profiles, finishes and opening systems are integrated into contextual settings, letting visitors touch, operate and compare them as they would at home. Cozy meeting corners woven throughout create comfortable settings for conversation while keeping a visual connection with the products. Currasso is ultimately a place where products are experienced before they are purchased and imagined before they become part of a home.

“Precision That Defines Design.”

The Salice Experience Centre is more than a hardware showroom. It is a space where Italian innovation, design and everyday living come together. Created to showcase the elegance and precision of Salice, the store invites visitors to experience the products rather than simply look at them. Every zone is designed to feel natural, warm and familiar, helping people understand how premium hardware can quietly transform the way a space works and feels.

The centre brings together carefully designed settings for kitchens, wardrobes, bars, utility areas and living spaces. Instead of displaying hardware as individual products, Salice solutions are thoughtfully integrated into real interior applications so visitors can open, move, touch and explore the mechanisms. The door display is a key highlight, featuring systems such as Syncro fittings, telescopic fittings, Ghost doors and pivot doors that demonstrate the smooth movement and precision of Italian engineering.

What sets the Experience Centre apart is its quiet, human approach to showcasing hardware. The products do not demand attention; they become part of the experience. A shutter glides effortlessly, a mechanism moves smoothly and a storage solution feels intuitive. Designed across several cities in India, the store creates a meaningful bridge between Italian craftsmanship and contemporary interiors, turning technology into experience and hardware into something people can truly connect with.
