ANAND PATEL ARCHITECTS
Anand Patel Architects, founded by Ar. Anand Patel in 2007, is a multidisciplinary practice that renders professional services across various scales of architectural and interior design projects. Laid on the foundations of a humble beginning, our practice has evolved to standards which are indigenous and stems from the socio-cultural realities of our contexts and surroundings. Mentored by the principal architect Anand Patel, our studio at Ahmedabad strives towards achieving a timeless quality of architecture.
Inspired by the original proponents of Geoffrey Bawa’s works and his design philosophy, our practice has evolved from its vernacular roots towards a design movement in which sensitivity for local context combines with the principles of modernism. We believe in a realistic and pragmatic design approach. It helps us to directly collaborate with our clients and derive a product, tailored to cater their needs and satisfaction. The idea is to cultivate a synergistic alliance between the built and the surroundings. Our grit on excellence, technology integration and data driven approach allows us to look at context as a storehouse of resources to evolve and exist not just through preservation but more so through evolution.
Working hand in hand with various agencies, APA architects venture towards specific design solutions for each unique context, integrated with a thread of sustainability. The design process initiates with a brief from the client which is carefully evaluated and further researched by our team. Through collaborative efforts, inputs are drawn from a unified work of the architects, structural and environmental aspects from the onset of a project. This translates into an enhanced design solution, thereby, inhibiting knowledge from various expertise.
Our studio provides comprehensive professional services, including site analysis, site planning, architectural designs, services design (storm drainage, water, sewerage, electrical and air conditioning), specifications, quantities, execution drawings, site supervision along with other subsidiary services that goes into designing a project from inception to its competition. This allows the team to resolutely focus on the core competence of conception, creation and realization of great design projects.
With the narrative of ‘intimate immensity’ imbibed into the works of APA, we are a group of creative, passionate and innovative minds. We are committed towards delivering an outcome that asserts its existence, rested in a belief, that each design emanates from its cultural context and conveys a design sensibility through the lens of contemporary architecture.
