CARTWHEELis a coming together of likeminded architects with the sole intention to contribute our two cents to the

transforming face of urban India. In this ever evolving, mad world of design, the possibility for creating inspired and inspiring work is

endless. We believe in the unconventional. Seeking inspiration from the ordinary and mundane to create the unusual and distinctive.

A blank white space is the starting point of all our designs. The course of every creative process is dictated solely by the context

and the brief. We look at creating spaces, each evoking a definitive and unique experience.

Creativity is contagious and we believe in passing it on! On active collaboration between the client and our team, we aim

to deliver bespoke designs.
