Terranova
Terranova is a speculative architectural project grounded in the principles of circularity and ecological regeneration. It reimagines the built environment as an active participant in natural cycles—where materials are sourced, reused, and returned without waste, and architecture operates more like an ecosystem than a static structure. The project explores computational design, material life-cycle thinking, and bio-integrated systems to create a landscape that regenerates soil, purifies water, and evolves over time. Terranova challenges the linear logic of traditional construction by proposing a closed-loop model of making, living, and decomposing.
Windows of Future
Windows of Future is a circular design exploration that reimagines windows not just as passive architectural elements, but as active components in a building’s material and carbon loop. Developed under the “New Narratives for Circularity” studio, the project investigates how window systems can be modular, repairable, and reusable, extending their life span across multiple buildings and contexts.
Using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tools, the design team evaluated the environmental impact of various window assembly choices, focusing on material sourcing, embodied carbon, and end-of-life strategies. By comparing conventional window components with circular alternatives (e.g., bio-based insulation, demountable frames, recyclable glazing), the team was able to quantitatively reduce carbon emissions across the window’s life cycle.
The final proposal emphasizes:
Design for Disassembly: every part of the window can be removed, replaced, or reused without damage.
Carbon-Conscious Material Selection: minimizing high-impact materials like aluminum and maximizing low-carbon solutions.
Digital Fabrication & Traceability: embedding QR-coded lifecycle data for future reuse planning.
Through this lens, Windows of Future contributes to a broader shift in architecture, from static construction to adaptive circular ecosystems, where even the most overlooked components carry the potential for transformation and impact.

Casa Tequila
Casa Tequila is a high-end residential project located in Gujarat, India, designed to blend modern spatial planning with regional sensibilities. As an architectural intern, I was extensively involved in all phases of the design and documentation process, from early concept development to detailed construction drawings.
The project features a multi-level layout that balances privacy and openness through courtyards, staggered volumes, and carefully orchestrated light. My responsibilities included:
Developing 3D models and visualizations to communicate spatial intent.
Preparing working drawings for structure, electrical, and plumbing coordination.
Assisting in material selection and interior detailing.
On-site support and coordination with consultants and contractors.
Working closely with the lead architect, I contributed to refining spatial layouts, resolving design challenges, and ensuring that the project maintained its design integrity through to execution. This hands-on experience gave me valuable exposure to the realities of residential construction, client interactions, and site-specific design strategies in a real-world architectural context.

Markunda - Public Health Care Unit
Markunda PHC : A Circular Community-Centered Health Hub
This proposal for a Primary Health Centre in Markunda, Bidar is rooted in the ethos of circular design, community well-being, and contextual responsiveness. The design leverages local materials, vernacular techniques, and bioclimatic strategies to create a healthcare space that is both economically accessible and environmentally regenerative.
Circularity & Sustainable Strategies
Material Circularity: Use of rat-trap brick masonry reduced brick usage by 25% while enhancing thermal insulation.
Rainwater Harvesting & Greywater Reuse: Systems proposed for self-sufficiency in water usage.
Bamboo Trusses and Mud Walls: Minimizes embodied energy and utilizes rapidly renewable resources.
Composting and Waste Segregation: Designed waste systems help return nutrients to soil and prevent landfill overflow.
Key Numerical Highlights
Estimated Cost: ₹5,97,796 (~€6,600), made possible by vernacular construction and use of local labor.
Energy Reduction: Passive ventilation, light optimization, and solar energy reduce dependence on non-renewables.
81% of the population relies on home births, the PHC directly addresses this with accessible maternal care.
62% literacy rate and high infant mortality rates guided a human-centric zoning strategy that encourages community gathering, awareness, and traditional healing.
Design Features
Courtyard Typology: Central Anganwadi space doubles as a community gathering and workshop zone.
Multipurpose Ward: Functions as an isolation space during pandemics or as a labor room.
AYUSH Facility: Promotes integration of Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy.
Adaptive Design: Allows future expansion and responds to climate extremes (heat, floods, droughts).
Impact
This PHC design goes beyond infrastructure, it proposes a circular ecosystem embedded in social fabric, ecological cycles, and vernacular resilience. It is an affordable, replicable, and regenerative model for rural healthcare architecture in India.

Mimosa Panels
Mimosa Panels is a kinetic facade system inspired by the responsive behavior of Mimosa pudica, a plant known for its ability to fold its leaves when touched or exposed to environmental changes. Using Grasshopper, the project translates this biological mechanism into a dynamic architectural surface that adapts to stimuli such as light and climate. Through parametric modeling, the facade is divided into modular panels that open and close based on sensor input, promoting energy efficiency and user comfort. The design demonstrates the potential of biomimicry, computational design, and responsive architecture to create buildings that are more attuned to their environment.

Nestcape
Nestcape is an explorative pavilion project that investigates the intersection of computational design, natural systems, and human experience. Inspired by the structural logic and spatial intimacy of bird nests, the design uses algorithmic strategies to generate a porous, shelter-like form that balances enclosure and openness.
Parametric modeling tools were employed to create a geometry that adapts in density, curvature, and porosity, allowing light, air, and views to filter through while shaping a comforting spatial envelope. The layered structure simulates a woven, organic assembly, suggesting an architecture that is both protective and permeable.
Through this project, Nestcape proposes a biomimetic approach to spatial design—where natural intelligence informs human-scale habitats that feel alive, adaptive, and nurturing.

Hexagonal Pod
Hexa-Pod is a robotic fabrication experiment that explores the architectural potential of layered hexagonal stacking through precision-controlled robotic assembly. Designed as part of the “Introduction to Robotic Fabrication” seminar, the project investigates modularity, ergonomics, and spatial expression using a rotation-based stacking logic.
Inspired by natural geometries and public gathering typologies, the final form consists of 81 wooden sticks stacked in 27 rotating layers, each shifted by 120 degrees. This creates a twisting, open-ended pavilion-like structure that offers both functional seating and spatial enclosure.
The use of robotic arms allowed for high-fidelity precision, testing multiple layout configurations (Options A–D) before finalizing an optimal design based on spatial flow and user interaction. The hexagonal form not only enhances stability and assembly logic, but also provides a 360-degree public interface, suggesting future applications in outdoor furniture, bus stops, or modular installations.
Hexa-Pod is a study in how robotic processes can drive both structural logic and experiential design, bringing architectural expression and digital control into direct dialogue.
