General notes · The studio

A practice in its fifth decade.

Founded by C R Shivakumar in Bangalore, the studio has grown across three generations — carrying one ethic: listen first, draw second.

A small team of architects and interns work out of a studio that does not limit itself to the office. We travel, read, listen to music, watch film — because you cannot design for people without first knowing them.
