Inception of our young Architectural Firm begins from here. Something which will remain closest to our hearts forever. The design of our own office Pratinav Chadha Architects, our creative abode. Having lived & travelled in various countries and gaining education from two very different cultural economies namely India & United States, one thing was clear that I wanted to design something which is an amalgamation of modern and vernacular elements and materials. 

Site being in a densely populated area of Delhi, India, our office had to stand out in order to make an impact in this ever-evolving field of Architecture & Design. Concept being with use of computational and parametric design methodologies, mirroring our outsides and insides to create a sense of welcoming sanctuary which enables a visual delight to anyone inside, be it our clients or team members. A wave which follows from outside to inside. Façade being made of 52 pieces of scraped and restored mild steel welded pipes each arranged in order to follow a defined pattern and same goes for the ceiling made up of reclaimed wood which is CNC into 82 pieces and arranged to form a wave. 

The Façade, Ceiling and Furniture being the modern feature and our Walls and Artworks display use of vernacular elements like application of Mud thatch materials with natural pigmentation on walls. At the entrance one is greeted with a Modulor Man Sculpture from the great Le Corbusier as to reminisce the sense of space and proportions. Artworks being a hand painted House Plan I did in my bachelor’s and other being a tree of life in traditional Sanjhi Art on a fabric. 

Each element has been nurtured to enhance our creative space and aptly follows the quote that ‘A building is alive, like a man’ from The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand.
