The practice’s work embraces a conceptual and an experimental approach, while remaining firmly grounded in the contextual nuances of its work. In doing so, they forge an innovative path towards engaging with localised urbanity, while also addressing global architectural concepts and issues.

Selected Works

Hoverspace

Can the ‘New’ be grafted onto the ‘Old’ with the least amount of intervention? 

How can structure, space, and skin come together to create one unified urban object out of several disparate parts?

How can a building respond to several contexts by using one unified strategy?

How does one synthesise a new spatial order through the act of grafting?

Does a graft also metamorphose the host?

Stacked Student Housing

What are the gradations between public and private in student housing? 

Can a small urban site support density in the Z direction if not in the X and Y direction? 

Can ‘section’ become a generator of form and space?

How does a building assume the role of an urban anchor in a neighbourhood?

Centenary Museum for KLE Society

How much should one intervene in a heritage structure? 

Is it possible for a building to retain its antiquarian roots and yet be a site of exploration for contemporary formal explorations? 

How can the narrative of a museum intertwine across centuries and also across landscape and building?

Praveen Bavadekar reviews Five Architectural Fables, by Edgar Demello

Praveen Bavadekar, in his review for Five Architectural Fables by Edgar Demello, opines how the architectural fables ingeniously critique urban design through non-human perspectives, transforming complex environmental and design challenges into provocative, imaginative storytelling.

In the path of tradition

The Gangubai Hangal Gurukul in Hubli was dedicated to the nation on March 5, which happened to be the doyenne’s 99th birth anniversary.

SLICE – OPEN – REVEAL: Thirdspace Architecture Studio

Architectural drawings, as representation, are abstractions of the immersive multi-dimensional nature of a built space and can be limited in their scope, leaving a lot for imagination. The best of the drawings, however, are amply coded to enable us to take that journey into exploring a space that is yet to be.
