Hosur • Est. 2014
Good design changes how you feel at home.
We create spaces that are honest, considered, and built to last.
Residential • 2024
A modern luxury home in Bangalore where clean architecture meets considered living. Designed around natural light and open volumes, the residence balances contemporary lines with warm material finishes — stone, timber, and bespoke joinery — delivering a home that is both rigorously precise and deeply personal.

What We Do
From compact urban apartments to expansive villas — complete architectural design tailored to how you live, what you value, and where you are going.
Offices, retail environments, and mixed-use buildings that communicate brand identity through spatial intelligence, material quality, and purposeful planning.
Interior design that begins with architecture — light, volume, and flow resolved first, then layered with materials, furniture, and detail that feel inevitable.
Masterful layout strategies that optimise every square foot. Function, flow, and spatial experience resolved from the ground up before a wall is drawn.
Gardens, courtyards, terraces, and site planning conceived as extensions of the architecture — spaces that blur the threshold between built and natural.
End-to-end execution from concept through handover. We coordinate every contractor, timeline, and specification so the build matches the vision — completely.
About the Studio
We started Design Intend in Hosur in 2014 — not with a grand vision statement, but with a single question: what does this family actually need? That question has guided every project since. Whether it is a home in Hosur, a villa in Krishnagiri, or a commercial space in Bengaluru, the answer always begins with the people — not the blueprint.
Over the past ten years, we have designed homes, villas, and offices across Hosur and the wider Bengaluru–Tamil Nadu corridor. Every project starts the same way: we visit the site, understand the light, the airflow, the neighbourhood — and then we design something that could only exist in that one place. No two projects look the same. That is the point.
"Anyone can build a structure.— Ar. Chittrarasan, Founder & Principal Architect
We build spaces that feel like they were always meant to be yours."
Ar. Chittrarasan
Chittrarasan graduated from Adhiyaman College of Engineering, Hosur in 2007. He spent his early years at Suresh Goel Associates in New Delhi, working on landmark institutional projects — IIT, IISc, BITS Pilani, and Jindal City. In 2011 he joined Gensler, Bengaluru as Associate Architect, leading interior environments for global clients including Chase Bank, Starbucks, and GMFI. In 2014 he came home to Hosur and founded Design Intend — with the conviction that world-class design belongs here too.

How We Work
An in-depth conversation about your vision, site, budget, and timeline. We study the land, the light, and the life you intend to live before imagining anything.
A complete design concept — massing models, spatial narratives, material palettes, and 3D visualisations that make the architecture real before a brick is laid.
Collaborative iteration until every detail is exactly right — not approximately right. Working drawings, specifications, and approvals handled in full.
Full site supervision, contractor coordination, quality assurance, and handover. We remain present and accountable until your space is exactly as designed.
