SJK architects, Mumbai

They think out of box, they think contemporary and they think in Indian context. SJK architects believe in optimizing sun and wind.

They don’t advertise it, they haven’t mentioned it but I can’t resist telling you that it is an all women architects’ team!

Shimul Javeri Kadri with her team of talented architects has experimented in novel ways. They have designed a residential building in Chennai where plumbing spaces look like bamboo like jalis (grill).  A house in hilly areas of Alibaug is designed as leaves inspired from the leaves strewn around, the curves here follow rain function.

The ethnic interiors, the glass box modern with many Indian features and colours all speak of functional spaces and adopting the negative environment to its positive fullest.

This house in Bengaluru was built on one acre plot, a dirty nala(sewer line), airplanes (airport vicinity) and dreams!
