About

About Us :
Founded by Ar. Hitesh Modi & Ar. Amit Srivastava in 1994 as a multidisciplinary architecture design practice, Modi Srivastava and Associates' expertise includes architecture, interior design, planning & urban development. The firm takes pride in its innovative design, often inspired by nature, history, urban context, technology & sustainable strategies. The belief is that the most complex and beautiful solutions are often, if not always, the simplest ones. MSA's portfolio of projects spans across the country and ranges in scales & typologies; that broadly include the following

Residential Projects | Commercial Spaces | Educational Institutes | Group Housing | Institutional Projects | Hospitality Projects | Health Facilities | Interior Spaces | Industrial Units | Renovation & Adaptive Re-use Projects. The firm's design process is an interactive & collaborative one, promoting open and effective communication between leaders, team members and consultants. During the design process itself, the clients are engaged and informed in making decisions to reach a consensus and proceed towards the successful completion of the project.

The philosophy of MSA's work is a collective one. The idea is to achieve a design solution driven by concepts about function, climate, location, the form-making process, the role of the final design in the neighbourhood, etc. MSA believes that a building designed with a broader perspective of knowledge & understanding of the larger community & environmental issues related to it intensifies the project's meaningfulness. Members of the firm routinely provide leadership in civic, sociological & sustainability initiatives. This commitment allows the firm to bring a unique perspective to every project, resulting in an outcome that is innovative, relevant & timeless.

MSA consciously & with determination is engaged in reinventing the urban conditions. We work with the belief that every project contribution must belong to its place & time. It results in the dynamic relationship between nature & built environments. At MSA, we understand the designer's obligation to repair & restore the state of the environment & our approach extends beyond simply reading the negative impact of construction. We recognise that each project has a unique "ecosystem", & we strive to integrate project objectives within broader social & environmental missions. Since construction activities constitute a significant source of pollution on our planet, we believe in using and reusing materials in optimum quantity and efficiency.
