Hotel Complex in Chania
The Landscape as a Starting PointThe Hotel Complex in Chania draws its identity from two defining characteristics of the site: uninterrupted views towards the Cretan Sea and the natural slope of the terrain. The development follows the existing topography, allowing the individual volumes to integrate naturally into the landscape while maximizing views across the complex.
A central objective of the design was to make the horizon a constant presence throughout the guest experience rather than a feature reserved for selected spaces. Outdoor areas, openings and circulation routes form part of a unified spatial strategy that allows the landscape and the sea to accompany visitors from the shared amenities to the accommodation areas.

Ramisera Wilds
Ramisera Wilds is a 5000 sq.ft boutique resort project with 3 cottages and 2 existing huts in Ramisera, Uttarakhand, in the Kalagarh Tiger Reserve forest area. The river Palain flows along the site and the sound of water echoes through the resort. Our response to such eco-sensitive site was a structure with minimum on-site interference and ecofriendly passive design principles. We designed a resort with a focus on the natural beauty and surroundings and an experiential stay to observe wild life. We kept in mind the process of construction with the intention of minimal disturbance of the land and reduced time line of construction on-site so as to not disturb the wild life movement in the surrounding areas.
