but it must transcend time and site and client needs. We do not want to develop a style or
specialize in any project type. It is our hope to continue to work on only a few projects at a time,
with intense personal involvement in all parts of the design and construction. We want the studio
to be a good place to work, and learn, and grow, both for the people who work in the office
and for ourselves. The metaphor for the office is a family. Each person must take responsibility for
their own work, but as well must be responsible for the good of the whole. We do not believe in
the separation or specialization of skills. Each architect in the office will work through all aspects
of a project. We would like to be financially stable, but this will not outweigh artistic or ethical
belief, which will always come first. The work should reflect optimism and love. The spiritual
aspect of the work will emerge if the work is done well.’

EARTH MATTERS
PRINCIPAL ARCHITECT - -

LOCATION - BANGALORE

ABOUT - We realise the emergence of a new 'GLOCAL'


cityscape, one that is globally local and locally global. Representation of world's culture
on neighbouring streets is a sign of this phenomenon. Architecture today urges
the integration of communities, virtual environs, and most importantly, nature.
Humankind's choice of sheltering itself need not lead to the demise of our home- Planet
Earth. We are part of it, not outside of it. As we attempt to design for experiences and
activities rather than just for the physical shell; we also aspire to design for the soul
rather than just for the body.

WHY YOU SHOULD INTERN - Interesting work, but lack of contact details on
website. There is a contact form in the website though.

DCOOP
PRINCIPAL ARCHITECT - QUAID DOONGERWALA & SHILPA RANADE

LOCATION - MUMBAI

ABOUT - As a professional practice, DCOOP aims at bridging


the gap that exists between concerns of ‘pure’ design, the contingencies of
construction, and sensitivity to the requirements of the user. The firm has worked on a
diverse range of projects including individual houses, retail stores, offices, institutional
projects and urban design across the country. We believe that any exercise of design
should derive from a deep analysis of the context and program of the project. It is an
appropriate response to its particular Reality that gives each DCOOP project a unique
sense of identity. Pragmatically planned, meticulously put together, subtly fine-tuned to
stimulate the senses, our projects are characterized by their refined proportions and a
sense of balanced restfulness.

WHY YOU SHOULD INTERN - One of the really emerging practices with a

ABOUT - Our work is an expression of our beliefs.


Unchartered paths excite us. We react instinctively to a design problem. There is no
formula and we don’t have a style. We debate and argue galore. But at the end of a
sore argument usually emerges a great idea. Nothing surpasses that moment in a
process when a beautiful idea is born. Not even chocolate cake. We love chocolate
cake. Process in design is of paramount importance – even if it means we ended up
exactly where we started. We believe in strong ideas. Ideas that are native to their
context.
