Kolkata
A 15,000 sqft Edwardian style villa in Kolkata, an ideal example of old, classical merged with new, rustic styles. Designed in two phases, ten years apart to accommodate for more modern needs, this home has not lost its basic character. There are two highlights in this palatial villa. A skylight, set in glass and wood, designed and constructed ten years ago. Secondly, a very recent designed office/den with a terrace and a bamboo reed wall. Heavy wood and stone complement the bamboo wall. |

Downtown, San Diego, California, USA
This is a 22-story mixed-use highrise project in downtown San Diego overlooking the Baseball Park. The first three floors are retail and live/work units while the remaining floors are high-end residential units, the top two floors being the penthouse. The live/work concept allows a tenant to live and work in the same space thus saving energy in the form of fuel as well as human energy. The concept came about with the growning concern of sustainability or rather the lack of it. The small plot area gave the project a unique constraint, that a fire truck could not turn around in the site to exit. This constraint was solved with the use of a hydrolic turn-table.
