The firm believes that good design is produced from careful study and research, combined with technical knowledge and artistic judgment. Random and unforeseen events are examined for the possibility of adding richness and new possibilities to the design. Attention to detail, proportions and scale, together with common sense ensure that the end result fully develops the potential within the concept. Their work has been the recipient of several national architectural and interior design awards and has been featured extensively in various national and international magazines and journals. In 2004 they were invited to participate in the International Exhibition ROOTS & TRAJECTORIES - 4 Young Practices from India held at the University of New Mexico, USA, which subsequently traveled to The University of California at Berkeley, USA, in 2005. In June 2007 they were part of IN SITE an exhibition on Indian Interior Design that opened at the IFA gallery in Stuttgart and later in Berlin in August 2007, which showcased the work of 6 architects and interior designers from India.
