Anurag Agarwal's Company Details
OAA is radical architectural practice operating within the traditional boundaries of architecture and urbanism. OAA combines its research and design studio, and applies architectural thinking to domains beyond. OAA's architecture emerges out of a careful analysis of how contemporary life constantly evolves and changes. Not least due to the influence from multicultural exchange, global economical flows and communication technologies that all together require new ways of architectural and urban organization. We believe that in order to deal with today's challenges, architecture can profitably move into a field that has been largely unexplored. A pragmatic utopian architecture that steers clear of the petrifying pragmatism of boring boxes and the naïve utopian ideas of digital formalism. Like a form of programmatic alchemy we create architecture by mixing conventional ingredients such as living, leisure, working, parking and shopping. By hitting the fertile overlap between pragmatic and utopia, we architects once again find the freedom to change the surface of our planet, to better fit contemporary life forms.OAA is led by two partners – Anurag Agarwal and Shrikant MittalOAA designed buildings currently under construction include Brahma Kumaris International Retreat Center, The Shed, Mittal Convention Center,Sanjeevani Medical Foundation's COVID Hospital, Boshwitiz House- Hawaii, Celebrity Chef Thomas Kellers house in Hawaii and the extension for New York Stock Exchange.OAA's proposal in global context are bold radical approaches for newer architecture reforms. Highly dynamic group motivated by international collaborations and working on all scales.
