Vachan Ballal

I am an architecture undergraduate looking to explore different opportunities in varied fields of architecture and design. I like producing practical design solutions that respects the user and context. I am passionate about contemporary vernacular design, woodworking and furniture & product design. Model making, crafts and sketching are a few of my interests.

“Design is nothing but a humble understanding of materials, a natural instinct for solutions and respect for nature.” -BV Doshi
