An architectural practice spanning three decades of work in building design, urbanism and research, m a architects is guided by the core values of innovation, integrity and excellence. Our critical design approach researches the creation of built environments that are feasible, contextual, adaptive and sustainable. Established in 1993, mla architects is today a collaborative practice engaged in design of various building typologies with extensive expertise in residential architecture and master planning.
"Architecture is a spatial design expression orchestrated through elements of form, light and air."
With a focus on experiential spaces, our designs attempt to achieve sustainable built environments which are creative and contemporary. Based on detailed studies of site parameters, its cultural, historical and environmental context, the aim is for innovative approaches to the design brief. Our collaboration with associate partners ensures the architectural design is integrated seamlessly with interior and landscape.
Our expertise in building typologies extends to residential buildings, office and retail complexes, hotels, mixed use developments, schools and institutions.
View architecture projectsMaster plans are blueprints for an organized, progressive, intelligent and sustainable development of sites, keeping in mind adaptability to changing contexts with time. Our master plans evaluate the long-term strategies and phasing of the project leading to a clear and comprehensive agenda for the design that addresses land use, open spaces, circulation, infrastructure and facilities, architectural typologies, landscape, urban integration and development parameters and phasing.
Urban design solutions to parks, crematoriums, cultural and social spaces in the city and interactive installations have been interesting urban design projects leading to insightful understanding of the human relationship and response to the built environment.
View master planning & urban design projectsResearch studies have been an integral part of our design process. The company's research and innovation arm has been engaged in presenting urban development guidelines analyses to governmental authorities and private organizations involved in the building industry. Its extensive work in the housing sector has led to research in model housing design for affordability, flexibility and modularity. Understanding and designing for current and future trends in Retail is another important area of study.
