Collaborative Architecture is an international award winning firm headed by Lalita Tharani and Mujib Ahmed. Head quartered in Mumbai with design centers in Ningbo, China and Calicut, India, the firm has been in the fore front of new Indian Avant Grade. Architecture at COLLABORATIVE goes beyond the generally prevailing notions of functional contingencies and simplistic approach of problem solving. Projects fall in a larger scheme of things, transforming them into critical explorations of ideas and visions for future. The practice is driven by innovation and ceaseless pursuit of quality in design to create projects, which are highly sensitive, poetic, and contemporary. Every project is an exploration, going beyond the functional brief, creating a symbiosis of people, places, culture, climate, economy and collaborative efforts of related disciplines.
