Brief description

Bestowed with architectural hegemony of the past, post-millennium India emerges out of a societal dichotomy of unabashed growth in real-estate industry, equipped with new-age technology while struggling against budgetary constraint, heavy reliance over age old construction technique and absence of professional outlook.

ADS gyrates among the few young enthusiastic design studios that aims at centrifuging the anomalies by seeking to a universal dialect of “responsible architecture” which builds upon low carbon footprint and extensive use of locally available materials despite the continuous conflict between logical reasoning and creative senses of emotion.

Our endeavour is to set free built environment from the prevalent crustacean architecture and infill sustainability through a holistic approach of uniting architecture, interior, landscape, signage and product design.

We believe the paradigm has shifted from “why” to “when” in terms of practising responsible architecture. We hope to create ‘biophilic spaces’ that respond to the changing socio-cultural, economic and environmental traits. We try to update and upgrade ourselves through constant research activities. Every project aims at exploring and enhancing the architectonic value of the design.

All our completed projects have earned us numerous accolades and have been published in several international and national magazines over a slim span of five years since the studio started in October 2005 which includes:

Winning International Property awards 2011 in Public Service Architecture, Design Firm of the Future, Architect of the Year, IIID MK interior awards, Lafarge ARC design awards, Best pavilion design award and various other accolades.

Also in last 3 years, we have won all major educational projects through national or international level competitions like International Management Institute Kolkata and Bhubaneswar, National Institute of Fashion Technology, Bhubaneswar, Army Institute of Management, Kolkata including being top 3 shortlisted in School of Planning and Architecture, Bhopal.
