About 

Seeking challenging assignments as a Graduate Architect/Designer in Architectural Design & Project Management with a leading Architectural Design Consultancy firm of repute.

 

I have 9 years of extensive experience in Architecture, Master Planning, Renovation and Interiors over turnkey Architectural and Urban design solutions in both- India and Australia. I take pride in having had the opportunities of being involved in almost all my projects from start to finish, i.e. from sketches of design concepts on drawing boards, through design development to coordination and execution to completion.

Along with my love for designing and detailing, I have continuously made active efforts in acquiring thorough knowledge of: • Space planning • MEP services • Structural • Traffic analysis management • Food court and kitchen functioning • Lighting analysis and planning • External Facade design and constructional detailing.

With my belief and quest of being continuously in learning process, I recently took a conscious break from my professional career to pursue Master of Architecture degree from Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane-Australia. This has helped me broaden my perspectives about Architecture through studies of humanities and contemporary theories and has re-instigated in me, a need for research based and sustainable architectural solutions, which has made me furthermore inquisitive and passionate about creative possibilities in Architecture.

I am attuned towards sustainable architecture that embraces co-living concepts. My designing style includes consistent amalgamation of landscape and radicalising space planning for experience based architecture. This also makes me particular and sensitive about importance of ergonomics in designs. My contrasting influences include from works of Geoffery Bawa and Santiago Calatrava.

Complex architectural and master planning projects excite me and I’m looking forward to challenging opportunities of multi-disciplinary nature, that will add to my breadth and depth of experiences. Along with architectural design consultancy, I am also interested in management of projects and business development. I personally believe in having a symbiotic and co-working environment and a strong believer of collaborative work modules.
