Steel, glass and in-situ terrazzo are left raw, while Siri Terrazzo inlays, brass and granite add moments of craft and tactility.
Art inspired by iconic Indian architecture moves from material to the immaterial, while a changing palette of plants brings nature into the 16th-floor workplace.
A space to pause, look out, and experience the city differently.

For this 12,000 sf office in one of the city’s prime commercial hubs, we wanted the workplace to feel less like a conventional corporate interior and more like a sequence of spaces to move through, pause in and return to.
The plan brings together reception and waiting areas, meeting rooms, workspaces and informal gathering spaces around a strong circulation spine. A restrained material palette of metal, glass, translucent surfaces and black-and-white flooring creates continuity across the office, while planting introduces moments of softness within the otherwise precise environment.
For us, the intention was to create a workplace where light, material, landscape and movement contribute to the experience of working itself.

The centrepiece is a luxurious conference room conceived as a conservatory-like glass volume—an enclosed meeting space that feels connected to the sky, daylight and the city beyond.

Three shapes. One obsession.
The vase. The teardrop. The ribbed column.

Each one turned by hand from solid walnut. Each one becoming a side table, a table lamp, or a floor lamp with an integrated shelf.

These are Bernard & Friends — years of thinking about what a piece of furniture should feel like to live with. Not just look at. Live with.

The brass rod is the only element that isn’t wood. The base, the shade, the tabletop — all the same walnut, the same grain, the same warmth. One material in quiet conversation with itself.

Rooted in craft. Built to last decades.

The vase. The teardrop. The ribbed column.

Each one turned by hand from solid walnut. Each one becoming a side table, a table lamp, or a floor lamp with an integrated shelf — depending on what the room needs that day.

The existing structure is retained and softened—
acoustic panels and a grid ceiling bring rhythm to a tight volume.
Seating remains informal—bar stools, benches, shared tables. Designed to be occupied differently, each time.
Lighting is continuous and calm. A stretched light anchors the bar, while walls are softly washed.

Inspired by Unreasonable Hospitality,
the focus is on use—where small details build familiarity over time.

Not a destination. A place you return to.

A narrow, split-level shell—reworked with restraint.
A compressed entry opens into a long stainless steel bar, where making becomes the experience.
A cut through the ceiling connects both levels—allowing the space to unfold vertically.
Lime-washed walls, red oxide floors, teak, steel.
Familiar materials, reassembled into a new rhythm.

Built for repetition, not novelty.

One . Many worlds.

From to Ajji House, from to , and the lush calm of .blr — this courtyard is a living ecosystem of food, culture, music and gathering.
Designed as a shared ground, the architecture doesn’t compete with the experiences—it frames them. Layers of material, light and movement stitch together diverse identities into one cohesive place, where every corner holds a different mood and every visit feels new.
A reminder that the most powerful spaces aren’t single-use—they evolve, overlap and invite people to stay a little longer.

take a bow!
