FLOW

"Flow" is a holistic wellness center that spatializes well-being through layered volumes and intersecting planes. Rejecting traditional closed rooms, it eliminates forced routes in favor of fluid, non-linear circulation. Strategic galleries dissolve boundaries, allowing users to experience the space freely at their own rhythm while staying connected.

COSTA VIVA

Organized around water, landscape, and semi-open spaces, Costa Viv offers a spatial experience that encourages slowing down, breathing, and healing. Curved and fragmented masses orient toward the sea, reducing scale, increasing permeability, and creating shared living areas with a seamless indoor–outdoor continuity.

Reconfiguring Housing: Density & Rentals, Gangtok

The thesis explores Daragoan in Gangtok where farmland has become dense housing built room by room with rentals in mind. Terraces, corridors and stairways act as commons for play, prayer gatherings and commerce. A grid of local room sizes shapes light courts, shared terraces and adaptable spaces reframing density as a resource for community and continuity.

Inspired by hummingbird wings, this parametric coffee table blends art and functionality. Its fluid form, born from mirrored polylines, brings nature’s elegance to your living room. With a soft, delicate touch to the floor, it feels like a gentle landing. A sophisticated centerpiece, it transforms simplicity into a statement, merging design and art.
