I lead climate-responsive vernacular construction from design through on-site execution.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I've led sustainable, vernacular, and natural building projects from concept to final delivery, blending traditional craftsmanship with practical project management.
At Sacred Groves in Auroville, I led design and end-to-end site execution for an Earthbag Dome, managing 15+ interns and artisans while optimizing material costs. I also directed a community kitchen construction project, coordinating 20+ interns and local vendors to meet timelines with zero material waste.
As an independent vernacular specialist, I've guided brick-and-lime-mortar community kitchen construction and redesigned an ancestral residence while retaining its mosaic floors, arches, and red oxide flooring. My work includes earthbag construction, mud and cob building, lime finishes, bamboo joinery, material research, workshops, and on-site leadership.
