Practice Design

What Practice Design does

Practice Design Pvt. Ltd. is a private architecture, urban, and interior design firm founded in 2012 and headquartered in Mumbai, India, operating four regional studios in Mumbai, Kolkata, Goa, and Guwahati. The firm delivers professional design services spanning campus masterplanning, mixed-use developments, luxury residential, retail and commercial interiors, sports and wellness facilities, and institutional buildings (e.g., the 1 million sq. ft. Esplanade mixed-use project in Bhubaneswar, the India Autism Center in Sirakol, the Indian Institute of Skills in Ahmedabad and Mumbai, and residential work for Sunteck Realty and Atmosphere Kolkata). Internally, services are organized into core Architecture, four verticalized Interior Design practices (Office and Corporates, Luxury Residential, Retail Commercial, Galleries and Clubs), and two research sub-brands in Autism Design and Retail Innovation.

The firm runs on industry-standard design tooling — AutoCAD, SketchUp, Revit, Photoshop, InDesign, and PowerPoint — with no proprietary technology platform, software product, or AI/ML capability disclosed. Revenue is earned exclusively through project-based professional service fees scoped individually per engagement, billed under multi-year contracts, and secured via direct enterprise engagement with real estate developers, corporations, institutions, and government bodies. New business flows in through website inquiries ([email protected]), with no external funding, parent company, or M&A activity disclosed. Ownership appears founder-controlled, led by Director and Founder Sandip Agarwal alongside a Partner, a Principal, and four additional senior architects/principals.
