Initiated in 2017 with the primary aim of designing optimum designed spaces, we at Astu' believe 'less is more' .
Started out of a small outhouse co working, we have witnessed a steady growth in terms of design and type of projects undertaken. Off recently we have shifted to dedicated premises and cloud working platforms following an unconventional but highly efficient working methodology where every team member is a valuable part of this organization and not a mere employee.

Design for me is what emerges naturally. Forms. massing. volume. whatever you term it. Living essentially with a minimalist design and making it part of ones lifestyle.
In today's exuberant and materialistic language, materials, technology,society, its necessary that we stay connected to our roots in a way.
Trying to achieve this balance of sense and simplicity in constructed and unbuilt diagrams.
'Earth, the very basis of human existence, we often overlook in the glittery eyes of the century.
Architecture is not an independent entity but rather a holistic approach towards daily user pattern and geography.
Having studied and also a professional Indian classical dancer,, I see design always corresponding to its rich heritage.

A well designed space wouldn't be a well designed space unless it is well crafted, precisely executed .
A simplistic planning with apt massing / a play of materials can create beautiful habitats.

Architecture to me is creating livable & comfortable spaces understanding user-end requirements as a key aspect.
Integration of built and unbuilt masses along the natural conditions creates subtle and simple spaces.
Focusing on creative, minimalist designs merging with the flow of nature.

Design for me is a combination of style and beauty added to geometry making it a simple / aesthetic/ perfectly optimized to end user.
