Vastu Shastra is an ancient body of knowledge that addresses the relationship between human habitation and the forces of nature. It is not merely a system of construction rules but a comprehensive science that evolved from the observation of natural laws and cosmic order. The introduction of Vastu Shastra establishes it as a discipline rooted …
A gated community is not a product, it is a lived system Most villa communities are sold as a promise: quiet streets, greenery, security, and a better daily rhythm than the city can offer. The hard part begins after sales. Residents arrive with different lifestyles, different tastes, and different expectations of what “premium living” should …
Introduction: the airport road as a city’s first handshake In contemporary Indian cities, the airport road has quietly become one of the most influential public spaces, even though most people experience it at speed.

Not always at the same pace as private workplaces, and not always with the same budgets or freedoms, but the direction is clear. Institutions today are expected to work faster, collaborate across departments, host external stakeholders with confidence, and communicate competence the moment someone …
A community defined by what it already had Many residential developments begin with a tabula rasa mindset: level the land, draw the plots, add landscaping as a final layer. Sindhuvanam, as presented through VANZSCAPE’s public project communications, reads as the opposite. The narrative starts with an existing natural and infrastructural condition: a stormwater drain cutting …
A home that carries its homeland There are residences that solve a program and then there are residences that carry a family’s story. Jayashree’s Residence by VANZSCAPE Architects & Associates belongs firmly in the second category: a cozy 3000 SFT apartment in a posh locality of Hyderabad, conceived to reflect the family’s Rajasthani roots while …
