Who knew leakages could make for such an interesting conversation? 😄

A big thank you for inviting me to this podcast *Smita and Radha!*
You took a topic that's usually full of technical jargon and tried to keep it as simple, practical and relatable as possible.

Hope you all enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed recording it!

Looking forward to your thoughts and hopefully fewer leaks! 💧🏠

A small plot. A modest footprint. Yet every site has a story waiting to unfold.

As construction progresses, what once existed only as lines on paper is slowly acquiring volume, texture and character.

The stationary becomes animated. Drawings transform into spaces. Measurements become experiences. Ideas become walls, courtyards, windows, and memories in the making.

Site visits are moments to observe this transformation, the quiet journey from imagination to inhabitation.

A tiny plot, perhaps. But a story that is very much in motion.

Summer site visits are a whole different vibe. Before the monsoon washes everything green, nature goes a little dramatic; random blooms everywhere, strange sweet smells in the air, loud cicada concerts and colours you don’t notice any other time of the year.

For a few weeks, the landscape feels like a completely different place… and then the rains arrive and tuck it all away under endless green again.

Some people walk into a studio for an “internship” and somehow end up becoming part of the furniture 😜 in the best way possible 😝 You all did exactly that. Over the last six months, you guys have brought in fresh ideas, endless curiosity and just the right amount of chaos to keep things interesting.
As you head back to college to tackle your thesis (and probably miss real-world deadlines already), we hope you carry forward the same energy and confidence.

Thank you for all the contributions, laughs, and memories . . . you’ll be truly missed !!
And yes, we might even miss the chaos a little.

An ongoing exploration on a compact rural plot, where vernacular language informs spatial planning, materiality and climate response - without compromising on present day comfort.

Climate analysis and Vastu intent laid the foundation for a project that braved Covid, financial hurdles, and committee changes — and still reached completion with grace.
