Venkataramanan Associates (VA) is architecture and urban design firm based in Bangalore and Pune, embedded in a culture of innovation, integrity and respect for our clients and employees. VA has built a formidable and growing knowledge base in architectural design and design-build processes that is as vast as it is deep. The teams at VA combine high critical thinking skills and visual acuity, design intelligence and hands-on involvement in the design-build process.VA treasures knowledge, intelligence and perseverance in learning, and these inform the firm's work culture. From a 19-person office (founded in 1970) that gained a reputation early on for its work in real estate and for scientific institutions, to a 200-person firm straddling 10 different sectors that are often cross-disciplinary and highly complex, the focus has always been on design and the power of communicating through drawings. VA employs a highly eclectic work style of knowledge building in allied fields, a workforce with core strengths in varied sectors and extensive client research and fieldwork.Today the firm combines the capacity of a large firm with the intensity of a small office. The firm's commitment to vigorous design review sessions and critiques has infused its designers with a shared sense of commitment to every project. The firm's award-winning projects have been widely published in India and are part of a rapidly growing portfolio of radical work.
