Here, we have compiled a list to put the spotlight on the best architect duos who have come up with the coolest architectural designs in India.

Sanjeev Punjabi & Sangeeta Merchant-Their company SPASM’s creative process is as intuitive as it is carefully thought-out, following a ‘creation from chaos’ rule. The result is the articulation of a vision through buildings that are devoid of ornamentation yet striking, functional yet aesthetic, austere yet elegant. SPASM has designed in India and East Africa and is not interested in being avant-garde. They strive to be very human in approach and not too fussy in details. An Eastern kind of “inclusivity” is sought; every aspect of building, occupation and future ageing of projects is mulled over—many times over. Their recent project was a back-to-nature intervention, a remotely located bungalow at the edge of a reservoir a couple of hours away from Nashik.
