A tribute to the past, A vision for the future. Inspired by the city’s vibrant cinematic past and the colourful chaos of its street, we’ve designed a building that seamlessly integrates into the context while making a bold statement. Our design for Prince Ratnapuri in Walltax Road, #Chennai, is a testament to our belief that #architecture should reflect its surroundings. Here are a few key features of this incredible project: ▪️ The design honours the site's legacy as home to the historic Padmanabham Theatre through thoughtful programming that celebrates its cultural significance. ▪️ An entrance portal frames an existing mango tree, highlighting the importance of tree retention on the site. ▪️ A mixed-use building with commercial space on the lower floors and residential space on the upper levels will create an active streetscape. ▪️ The staggered balcony arrangement enhances visual appeal and functions as a self-shading mechanism, mitigating heat gain. This thoughtful facade design creates a bold statement while harmoniously blending into the urban landscape. ▪️ The building's vibrant elevation contrasts with the Bay of Bengal, Chennai's maritime heart. ▪️ Employing an innovative structural grid, the structure uses post-tensioned beams and virandel girders to integrate varying column spans and ceiling heights, seamlessly merging commercial and residential typologies. This technique allows for variable column spans and flexible ceiling heights, resulting in a versatile and adaptable building. ➡️ Discover more about the Prince Ratnapuri project in detail on our website: https://lnkd.in/grbnNrK3 #Architecture #Design #Chennai #MixedUse #UrbanPlanning #CAI #TeamCAI

I was drawn to Architectural Digest's announcement of this year’s 100 most influential architects, and as I browsed through the projects of these incredible talents, a few common threads really stood out to me. One of the most exciting trends is the way these designers are blending tradition with modernity. Whether it’s infusing colonial influences with contemporary design in Chennai or celebrating the Ladakhi way of building while using cutting-edge techniques, there’s a beautiful balance between honoring the past and embracing the future. Another thing that grabbed my attention was how eco-conscious so many of these projects are. Sustainability isn't just a buzzword here—these architects are making it the foundation of their work. They’re using local materials like mud, stone, and wood, designing homes that stay warm or cool naturally, and integrating things like solar panels and eco-friendly toilets. It’s clear that these designers are thinking about how to live lightly on the planet without compromising on style or comfort. I also noticed a strong push towards creating homes that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor spaces. It’s almost like the walls are disappearing, making nature an integral part of everyday life. Homes are being designed with courtyards, expansive decks, and massive windows that bring the outdoors in. The connection with nature is being prioritized in a way that feels refreshing and calming. What really inspired me, though, is how these architects are responding to the unique challenges of local climates and geography. Whether it’s a home built to withstand the harsh winters of Ladakh or one that’s designed to manage floods in Ahmedabad, each project feels deeply rooted in its environment. And finally, I love how so many of these designs put people at the heart of the project. Homes are being created not just for individuals but for families and communities, with spaces that encourage connection and togetherness. There’s something really human about these designs, something that goes beyond aesthetics to focus on how we live, gather, and interact with one another. It’s clear that the next generation of architects and designers in India is pushing boundaries in the most thoughtful and meaningful ways. #ArchitecturalDigest #OdysseyOfElegance #TheLuxuryEdit #InfluentialArchitects #SustainableDesign #ArchitectureAndNature

Ganapati Temples in Pune: A Timeless Connect between Tradition & Architecture Pune's Ganapati temples are timeless examples of Wada style, representing the cultural grandeur of the Maratha Empire combined with spiritual sanctity. From every delicately carved wooden entrance door to the decorative arches, spacious courtyards, and pillared verandahs, each element reflects a heritage that touches on craftsmanship and community spirit. Today, in this age of embracing sustainable design and architectural innovation, there is much to learn from these Wada-style temples. First of all, the Wada building's usage of local materials, like wood and stone, harmonizes well with modern sustainability practices. It notably reminds us of the need to build in harmony with nature. Temples like the 𝐃𝐚𝐠𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡 𝐇𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐢 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐢 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢 not only protect this rich architectural heritage of Pune but also inspire modern design to become traditional in serving today's needs. Ganesh Chaturthi and the festivities, let's reflect a little on how these wonders connect us with our cultural roots for community inspiration and modern-day creativity. What does traditional design inspire you within your work today? #GaneshChaturthi #WadaArchitecture #SustainableDesign #PuneHeritage #CulturalLegacy #TraditionalCraftsmanship #ArchitecturalInspiration

TriDA Design: Private Residence at FC Road, Pune Principal Architect : Sushant Warape Associate: Kanchi C. This private residence at FC Road, Pune, has certain typical design floors imparting it an apartment like appearance. To overcome this visual monotony, the facade design emphasizes a unified, cohesive look that embodies the essence of a single home. The client’s brief focused on creating open, outward-looking spaces with naturally lit and well-ventilated interiors, offering captivating views of the surrounding greenery. The southern-facing front facade, which receives intense sunlight, required a carefully planned design to minimize harsh glare. In response to these requirements, the design incorporates a dynamic facade featuring intricately curated planter beds. This innovative approach not only addresses the climatic challenges but also aligns perfectly with the client’s vision, blending functionality with aesthetic appeal. A Monolithic RCC Structural design system will bring this beautifully envisioned space to life. Stay tuned for updates as we move into the execution phase! #tridaworks #tridapune #concepttoreality #designtobuild #buidlingthefuture #designjourney #unfoldingstructures #architecture #facadedesign #contemporaryarchitecture #illustration #architecturalillustration #construction #buildingdreams #designdevelopment #architecturalvisualisations #lumionrenders #privateresidence
