How can architecture reorganise itself without losing its context? This hospitality project in Santorini by IMDA STUDIO reworks an 1876 mansion through spatial interventions that respond to terrain, light, and movement. Relying on asymmetry, the design uses variation to organise space—shaping how it is navigated, occupied, and experienced. The project explores how architecture can be read through movement and use. https://indiaartndesign.com/reworking-a-santorini-mansion-through-asymmetry-imda-studio/

Studio Yamini Architects’ Vadodara residence demonstrates how planning can drive environmental performance. A strategically positioned staircase acts as a climatic spine—enhancing daylight, enabling cross ventilation, and connecting spaces across levels. The project integrates passive strategies into the core of residential design.

At Espace citoyen des Confluents in Laval, the ground becomes the primary design tool. Designed by Projet Paysage with Cardin Julien, the project uses hydrology, landform, and planting to structure a public landscape that manages water, restores ecology, and supports everyday use. Explore how landscape operates as infrastructure. https://indiaartndesign.com/landscape-as-infrastructure-espace-citoyen-des-confluents-laval-by-projet-paysage/

How does architecture respond to climate beyond surface-level solutions? In Évreux, VIB Architecture brings together planning, façade, and material strategy to shape a paramedic training institute that integrates environmental performance at every scale. Explore how form follows climatic utility. https://indiaartndesign.com/an-environmental-pedagogy-where-form-follows-climatic-utility-vib-architecture/

Set within a thriving mango orchard in Alibaug, AAMRAI rethinks hospitality through a landscape-first approach. Villas sit within natural clearings under dense foliage, while verandahs, tiled roofs, and breathable materials enable passive cooling. The orchard itself operates as climate infrastructure. With over 85% solar energy and integrated water systems, sustainability is embedded in how the project is planned and lived. Designed by Pentaspace Design Studio with landscape design by Hemali Samant, AAMRAI positions architecture in quiet retreat, allowing the landscape to shape both environment and experience. https://indiaartndesign.com/landscape-as-climate-strategy-pentaspace-design-studio/
