Architect Rajesh Atha’s Post

✨✨ Starting an ambitious interior architectural project? Don’t let the complexity of the design and construction process catch you off guard.✨✨ Picture this: You’re transforming a high-end retail space in SoHo or designing a luxury residence on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The vision is clear, and the excitement is tangible—but then reality hits: unexpected delays, escalating costs, and mounting frustration. Why? As an architect with over three decades of experience in New York City, I’ve seen how seemingly minor missteps can quickly spiral into costly and emotionally draining setbacks. But with the right planning and guidance, you can avoid these pitfalls and set your project up for success. 👉 Read more in my latest blog: "Avoid Underestimating an Interior Architectural Project’s Complexity." 👉 Link in the comments below!

Architects agree that their top 3 factors when specifying hand drying solutions are aesthetics, hygiene, and touchless technology! We partnered with renowned market research firm MetrixLab to conduct a survey that investigates the post-pandemic commercial restroom landscape through the perspectives of architects and interior designers, among other select populations.

Cabin Alcyone is one of my latest Feng-Shui inspired architectural design projects, with a 13m diameter and a complete glass panels facade. Circular homes are defined as sanctuaries according to Feng-Shui, because the energy flows uninterrupted, through their circular shape. The glass panels offer a continuous influx of Yang energy in the interior - active energy - that is highly beneficial for the living room and dining area. As an architectural designer, what makes my approach special is my focus on functionality, which is accomplished through Feng-Shui and Sacred Geometry principles, and the high quality of aesthetics. Why I follow this approach? Because I spent almost 7 years in deep spiritual development, which I never thought I'd be called to incorporate into my designs. Always there's a major plan for our lives, which of course benefits the collective. And how can my approach benefit the collective? Simple! By designing sanctuaries and creating sustainable conditions for my clients to live in. But in this world we're not supposed to do it alone, and that's why I'd love to partner with your architectural or real estate team, to create a bond and altogether contribute to design sanctuaries for the future homeowners. If that speaks to your heart and of course your business goals and vision, send me a private message, a connection request, or an email at: pleiadianarchitects@gmail.com and let's talk.

Have you ever noticed how the layout of a space can change the way people connect? As an architect, I've seen how thoughtful design can foster genuine interactions and create memorable experiences. In this video, I dive into how even small design choices can shape the conversations we have and the energy of a space. Take a look, and let's create places that truly bring people together! #design #architecture #homes #beautifulhomes #reels #trending [Architecture, Design, Interior Design, Beautiful Homes]

Slow down to move fast! As interior architects, we're often immersed in the hustle of project deadlines, client meetings, and daily design challenges. It’s easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of it all. But here’s something I’ve learned along the way. Sometimes, the best way to move fast is... to slow down first. Taking time to visit showrooms, explore new materials, and simply get inspired by professionals can bring surprising new ideas and innovative solutions, elevating our designs to a higher level. In this video I am visiting Bastiaan Beun at The Mosaic Factory _TMF®_ since 1993. In search of a solution to make rounded tile components with a small radius, Bastiaan is showing me options in their experience center in Nistelroode.

🌍 The Role of Interior Design in Sustainable Architecture 🌍 At Locri, we're inspired by the increasing alignment between architecture and interior design in the journey toward sustainability. Sustainable design isn't just about choosing eco-friendly materials; it's about creating spaces that balance aesthetics, functionality, and environmental impact. Interior designers have a pivotal role here, merging innovative design with sustainable principles to shape spaces that are as eco-conscious as they are inspiring. For designers, sustainable architecture is a growing area for making an impact. Incorporating renewable materials, improving energy efficiency, and considering a building's life cycle are key skills for today’s roles. These principles enable candidates to support clients who prioritise environmental responsibility, aligning personal values with meaningful work. With sustainability increasingly shaping the architecture and design industries, Locri is excited to connect forward-thinking talent with projects and clients who share these values.

Legendary architect Louis Sullivan once said … “Form follows function.” In interior design, functionality is crucial. Every aspect of a space should serve a specific purpose, enhancing comfort and efficiency. Prioritize layout and design to ensure usability 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 diving into aesthetics. Create spaces that work for you, where every element contributes to functionality. Start with function, then follow with form. #FunctionalDesign #InteriorInspiration #InteriorDesign #Architecture #RealEstate #HomeDecor #FormFollowsFunction

🎙️ Finding Balance in Design: Highlights from CICLE CONVER6A. During the recent CICLE CONVER6A by 6A Taller I Galería D'art, our Manager, Cecilia Sagrera, and architect Guillermo Reynes from GRAS Reynés Arquitectos shared their insights on what makes a space truly special. For both Cecilia and Guillermo, every project is a new adventure. They talked about the delicate balance between architecture and interior design — how it’s not just about aesthetics, but about creating spaces that feel harmonious and inviting. It's a process where every detail counts, ensuring that each element fits together naturally to form a space that’s not only beautiful, but also welcoming and functional. We’re excited to share this clip, offering a peek into our passion for designing spaces that inspire and elevate everyday living. 🏡✨ #InteriorDesign #Architecture #aquaquae #DesignJourney #CICLECONVER6A #CreatingSpaces #DesignInspiration
