After working for a few years in the San Francisco Bay Area, Dimple Mittle and Vijay Narnapatti aspired to come back to India and “get our hands dirty” in the material and craft-rich environment of the country. Bengaluru, with its cosmopolitan character and proffessional design environment, seemed like an ideal place for their craft-based practice and, thus, mayaPRAXIS was founded in 2001. “We wished to bring our modern, critical thinking to the vernacular and traditional spirit of the architecture in India,” explain the architects who have a masters in History and Theory of Architecture from the University of Cincinnati.
