What We Do

Our
Services

01

Residential Architecture

From compact urban apartments to expansive villas — complete architectural design tailored to how you live, what you value, and where you are going.

02

Commercial Design

Offices, retail environments, and mixed-use buildings that communicate brand identity through spatial intelligence, material quality, and purposeful planning.

03

Interior Spaces

Interior design that begins with architecture — light, volume, and flow resolved first, then layered with materials, furniture, and detail that feel inevitable.

04

Space Planning

Masterful layout strategies that optimise every square foot. Function, flow, and spatial experience resolved from the ground up before a wall is drawn.

05

Landscape Design

Gardens, courtyards, terraces, and site planning conceived as extensions of the architecture — spaces that blur the threshold between built and natural.

06

Project Management

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

A Decade of Design.
Rooted in Hosur.

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.
We build spaces that feel like they were always meant to be yours."
— Ar. Chittrarasan, Founder & Principal Architect

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

Our
Process

01

Discovery

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.

02

Concept

A complete design concept — massing models, spatial narratives, material palettes, and 3D visualisations that make the architecture real before a brick is laid.

03

Refinement

Collaborative iteration until every detail is exactly right — not approximately right. Working drawings, specifications, and approvals handled in full.

04

Execution

Full site supervision, contractor coordination, quality assurance, and handover. We remain present and accountable until your space is exactly as designed.

Client Stories

"Design Intend did not just design our home — they understood how we live and translated that into every room, every detail, every material. Walking through it each morning is a quiet joy. That is not a small thing."

Arjun & Meena Mehta Whitefield Residence, 2024

"The Nexus project was delivered on time, within budget, and completely transformed how our team feels about coming to work. Design Intend has a rare ability to translate a company's values into physical space. Exceptional work."

VR
Vikram Rao CEO, Nexus Technologies

"I have worked with architects before. Design Intend operates at an entirely different level. The attention to how light enters a room, how spaces connect, how materials age — it is obsessive in the best possible way. Our villa is beyond what we imagined."
