PRACTICE

Established in 1994 in Bangalore, the practice has focused on developing an intersectional outlook to engage with evolving concerns defining the natural, human and built environments. As the practice matured, it adopted - and continues to do so- a diverse reading of issues, challenges and imperatives across scales, geographies and pedagogies of engagement. The practice continues to work towards creating an equitable ground interpreting and articulating challenges at the intersection of environment and development.
