FAQ

Call or WhatsApp us, or send an email, with a few lines about your project. We’ll set up a first meeting to understand what you need, and then visit the site. From there we prepare a brief that covers your requirements, the site, your budget and the local building rules. The brief is the foundation for everything that follows.

Whatever you have: plot documents or a survey sketch, photos of the site, a rough budget, a list of what your family needs, and any images of spaces you like. If you don’t have all of these yet, that’s fine. Part of our job is helping you work them out.

If you can, yes. We can look at a plot before you buy it and tell you how much you can build on it under the building rules, how the sun and wind fall on it, and whether its shape and access suit what you have in mind.

Our fees are charged per square foot of built-up area. The rate depends on the scope (architecture, interiors, landscape) and the complexity of the project. We give you a clear written fee proposal once we understand your brief. Fees are paid in stages, linked to the phases of the project.

That depends on size, design, materials and site conditions, so we don’t quote a number before we understand the project. We review your budget at the start, give you a preliminary cost estimate with the first design, and revise it as the design develops. Before construction, a bill of quantities gives your contractor a detailed basis for pricing.

Yes. We discuss your budget at the very beginning and design with it in mind, checking costs at each stage so there are no surprises later.

Usually around two months from our first meeting to the start of construction. The exact time depends on the size of the project and on how quickly reviews and decisions happen on both sides.

Yes. Along with floor plans, we prepare 3D visualisations and walkthroughs, so you can see and feel the spaces before construction starts.

Yes. We prepare the permit drawings, submit the application to the panchayat or municipality, and follow it up until the permit is issued.

We design and manage the project. Construction is carried out by contractors we trust and have worked with before. We help you choose one, compare their quotes and settle the contract terms. If you already have a contractor in mind, we’ll give them everything they need to price and build the work.

Yes. We visit the site at key stages of construction, such as the foundation, the main slabs and the finishes, to check the work against the drawings. Between visits we review products and details, coordinate with fabricators and handle any changes.

Homes, restaurants, commercial spaces, apartments and institutional buildings, such as Grin Table restaurant in Perinthalmanna and the Kunhīn Musliyār Library in Kottakkal. See our projects for more.

Sometimes. We take on interiors-only projects case by case, depending on the scope and how much we can contribute. Tell us about yours.

Yes. We give existing houses a new life without losing what makes them work. The Koppan Residence is a good example.

We have studios in Calicut and Palakkad, and we have worked across Kerala, Lakshadweep, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and the Middle East. Many of our clients live overseas, especially in the Gulf. We work with them through video meetings and regular updates, and we manage the project on site on their behalf.
