MOAD (The Madras Office for Architects & Designers)

The Madras Office for Architects and Designers (MOAD) is a multidisciplinary design practice. MOAD’s work is known for sensitive design, deep cultural influences, collaborative design approach, celebrating local materials and keen attention to detail. MOAD offers Architectural Design, Urban Design/ Master Planning, Interior Design, Architecture/ Urban research, Graphic Design, Installation Art and Set Design. We believe Architecture and Design leaves a strong impact on our everyday lives, so our work is a deep response to the social, environmental and cultural context. Our design process focuses on local skills combined with materials and technology leading to unique solutions specific to a context. Our design philosophy is about identifying the underlying parameters that shape a project and find a suitable organization and form that starts defining it.
