Courtyard-centric modern architecture

We translate traditional Indian spatial wisdom into highly refined, minimalist structures that capture the wind, filter the tropical sun, and age beautifully.

Our Philosophy

Honest regional materials

We reject both generic global modernism and superficial ethnic styling. Our practice focuses on permanent, deeply rooted structures built with Jaisalmer sandstone, hand-cast terrazzo, and lime plaster.

By studying how historical structures captured the wind and filtered the harsh sun, we design comfortable, low-energy modern spaces that feel emotionally and thermally anchored.

Core Principles

Crafted permanence

Thermal Wisdom

Material Honesty

Artisanal Alliance

Passive climate control inspired by traditional architectural archetypes like deep verandas, thick masonry walls, and strategic central courtyards.

Sourcing local sandstone, lime plaster, and reclaimed timber that weather beautifully, telling the story of the regional climate over generations.

Direct collaboration with regional stone masons and terrazzo artisans to preserve and elevate heritage building crafts within modern frameworks.

The Artisans

Collaborative practice

Bhaone operates as a collective of architects, researchers, and master builders. True architectural significance is not drawn in isolation, but carved on-site through close dialogue with regional craftsmen.

Our New Delhi design studio serves as an active, collaborative workshop where modern structural engineering meets centuries of intuitive masonry expertise.
