Design lives in the details.
In Residence RY, subtle material shifts, soft shadows, and precise junctions combine to create a space that feels grounded and light.

Here, texture becomes the visual language, and simplicity speaks volumes.

Residence RY explores a quiet, contemporary renovation—rooted in natural textures, soft contrasts, and refined linearity.
Every element, from the material palette to the clean architectural detailing, is designed to invite calm and clarity into the everyday.

A space where minimalism isn’t absence—it’s intention.

Elevated geometry— The terrace at Residence G982 is defined by a striking triangulated roof form, edged with parametrically designed perforated panels along its perimeter. These panels act as a delicate screen, filtering light and casting ever-changing shadows that shift with the sun.

Sculptural yet grounded, the terrace reflects the home’s larger design language—bold in form, refined in detail.

A facade that flows with form and texture —
At Residence G982, the exterior is defined by lightly burnt wooden panels meticulously routed in continuous linear patterns. The subtle curves and clean geometry create a sense of movement, transforming the facade into a living surface that shifts with light and shadow.

A study in material expression and parametric precision, the design brings warmth, rhythm, and character to the home’s street presence.

About a year ago we completed a project very close to our heart. A in Chandigarh, Barcode IXC, was the first project we undertook of its kind. Envisioned as a fusion of and over an area of 10,500 sq.ft. the lounge bar is a combination of a closed interior space and a large open rooftop area.

Having meticulously designed the space along with each and every element, , and through and tools, we bring a newfangled experience to the residents of the city beautiful.

Through this quirky space, we hope to not only create a bespoke lounge bar experience but also to elevate the postulation of and design today through the dissemination of knowledge of modish design tools and ideologies. Here we bring a first in a series of posts giving a view of the overall space and design and the experience that is Barcode IXC.

From our sofa prototype we have developed the design for a 100 ft long surface that forms a sofa at one end and transitions to a bar on the other, for our latest project ‘Terminal 7’ in Chandigarh; keeping with our studio’s ideology to create integrated design concepts with the use of , and research in and materials.

Update! Our new installation is finally coming together for our latest project ‘Terminal 7’, a in Sector-7 chandigarh. Here we have made a mock-up up for a sofa design with a made in , plastered with a reinforced plaster.

The design is being further developed to form an integrated bar and sofa where one element seamlessly flows into another; following our studio’s ideology of creating integrated design concepts, researching and experimenting new ways of developing designs on multiple scales.

We are developing a elemental system for a that combines the space with the bar front encasing the open space in an unceasing flow of elements. The system envisions the integration of functionalities at multiple levels presenting a new age ideology of designing spaces.

By combining strategies with the knowledge of advanced techniques we are focusing on developing a new paradigm in design that focuses on integration of elements and functionalities through computation design.

Coming soon!! A work in progress, the bar for our new project in Chandigarh. 📸
