Architects are creators; creators of spaces, giving life and meaning to them. The Architects not only represent their city, but are also extraordinarily responsible in shaping the city’s skyline.
The Architect’s Diary has meticulously curated a list of 20 best Architects from Bangalore, Karnataka, based on their creativity and excellent works in the field of design.

9.Kamat & Rozario Architecture

Our work is an expression of our beliefs. Unchartered paths excite us. We react instinctively to a design problem. There is no formula and we don’t have a style. We debate and argue galore. But at the end of a sore argument usually emerges a great idea. Nothing surpasses that moment in a process when a beautiful idea is born. Not even chocolate cake. We love chocolate cake. Process in design is of paramount importance – even if it means we ended up exactly where we started.
