Working on architecture in Kurla
Kurla has mixed stock — older dense housing alongside newer towers around the business district. Ground conditions in the low-lying parts mean ground-floor and basement seepage is more common here than elsewhere, and we survey for it specifically. Access in the older sections is constrained, so material delivery is planned as flat-pack with on-site assembly.
We work plan-first. Plot survey and development control rules confirmed, then a floor plan developed with you over two or three rounds, then structural coordination, and only then the elevation in 3D. Drawings are produced to municipal submission standard where you need approval, and we coordinate with the structural consultant so that what is drawn is what can be built. For interior-only projects, the same discipline applies at a smaller scale.
Specification for Kurla projects
Many projects need drawings, not an architect
If you are renovating inside an existing flat and not touching structure or the facade, you do not need an architectural appointment. A good measured drawing set and an interior layout will do the job at a fraction of the cost. We will tell you at the first consultation which of the two situations you are in, and we are happy to take on the smaller scope.

Structural coordination

Front Elevation Design
An elevation is the outcome of a plan. Chosen before the plan, it becomes a facade propped onto a layout it does not suit.

A plan that has not been structurally coordinated will put a column somewhere you do not want one.
Read more →3D Elevation Design
A 3D view is a decision tool. It is worth the most before the drawings are frozen, not after.

What does architecture cost in Kurla?
It depends on the specification and the condition of what is already there, which is why we measure on site rather than quoting a rate over the phone. The survey and the itemised quotation cost you nothing.
