Kalayojan Architects was set up in 1986 and has been in prolific architectural practice ever since its inception. The firm, which started operations from a 40 sq. ft. office has steadily grown in scale and scope of operations into a full-service architectural firm of about 3000 sq. ft. office space besides that of our associates. Our major Offices are located in Mumbai (western India), the commercial capital of the country and in Nagpur in central India. The organisation today holds a diverse portfolio of projects covering almost all aspects of architecture viz. institutional, residential (private and group housing), commercial, infrastructural, interior and landscaping.
Kalayojan has most distinctly handled architectural, infrastructural, project management as well as interior designing works for residential, commercial, hotel complexes, religious buildings, hospitals, mass housing, university campuses, infotech parks, laboratories and institutional buildings - each work a landmark for the client and each project a milestone' for themselves. Kalayojan has treated each work as a landmark for its clients and each project as a milestone for themselves. A building / interiors by Kalayojan today is above all a product of a precise "fit" between client, architect and context. The decision, as to whether it is made of granite and marble, or glass and steel, is the outcome of this relationship and not merely a matter of ideology. What distinguishes a Kalayojan building/ interior is its masterly ability to translate contemporary condition of practice into an exciting and sophisticated art of living spaces, the virtual & the real. In the world of competitive architectural practice, the name of Kalayojan stands out prominently. Today, Kalayojan is one of the leading architectural firms in India offering full services in all disciplines of this field with the promise of highest degree of quality and best prevalent standards of practice.
Kalayojan has extended its full services to individuals as well as institutional clients including universities, municipal corporations, housing and rehabilitation authorities, banks, Offices, industries and others. Our projects are located at Karnataka, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttaranchal, and other states in India and outside India as well.
Kalayojan's contribution to architecture has been recognized in the form of awards received by us. Kalayojan's principal architect, Sanjay Porwal, received the prestigious "Architect of the Year" award constituted by J.K.Cement in the year 2007 and an award for "aesthetics matching with environment" by the Indian Institute of Bridge Engineers in 2004.
Climate change and global warming due to the carbon emissions resulting from an excessively consumerist lifestyle are the topmost global concerns today. The architectural profession owes it to the world to respond by making buildings that are energy efficient. An approach to architectural design involving a maximization of available natural resources, be they the site's assets or local climatic advantages makes every Kalayojan building a Green Building. We also make frequent use of alternative sources of energy, viz. windmills and solar power generators, for electrification of our buildings to further our efforts in practicing Green Architecture.
