An award-winning architecture practice based in New Delhi, Abaxial is in fact a multi-disciplinary design firm that practises contemporary architecture, urbanism and cultural analysis. Its work addresses spatial dimension and design, but seeks to push the boundaries of design beyond the conventional. It views its work as an emotional response to the cultural, social and economic contexts within which a project is placed – a response that finds expression in design and architecture.

At its core, Abaxial is a process-driven firm relying heavily on research, observation, prototyping, building and storytelling to arrive at a design solution. Research into materials, construction techniques and cultural contexts of each project ensures that the spirit of innovation thrives within.

Since much of Abaxial’s work is located in the urban context, the firm is aware of its responsibility to the community apart from that to its clients. Concern for the ecology, encouraging and conservation is definitely a driving force at Abaxial, prompting it to evolve strategies that mimic natural processes – to maximise efficiency and optimise resource deployment.

Over the last decade, Abaxial’s output has been as diverse as it has been profuse, including the entire gamut of institutional, residential, commercial projects to competitions, consultancy, curation, exhibitions and furniture design to landscaping. It has even partnered with several academic organisations across Asia and Europe to produce work and research that will impact thought in the field of design.

Abaxial has delivered excellence consistently. This has equipped it with the experience and tools to execute complex projects requiring a reconciliation of conflict that arises between artistic intent and conditions on the ground.
