Elements Landscape Design Studio (EDS)

What Elements Landscape Design Studio (EDS) does

Elements Landscape Architecture Urban Design & Planning Studio LLP (branded as Elements Landscape Design Studio or EDS) is a Bengaluru-based landscape architecture and urban design professional services firm founded in 2011 by Madhu Lenka and Anupama Buddharaju, both alumni of EDAW Inc (now part of AECOM). The firm delivers landscape architecture and urban planning services across ten verticals: Residential, Institutional, Hospitality, Commercial, Parks and Open Spaces, Streetscapes, Waterfront Development, Restoration, Industrial, and Transportation Corridors. Its core methodology emphasizes sustainable and ecologically sensitive design — including stream corridor restoration, wetland creation, stormwater management, rain gardens, bioswales, and erosion control — combined with international design standards adapted to local Indian context, culture, and social fabric.

The firm operates as a project-based, quote-priced B2B professional services practice, generating revenue through one-time design fees for specific landscape architecture and urban design engagements. It sells exclusively through direct client engagement — a website contact form, phone (080-40911444), and email ([email protected]) — with no apparent intermediary channels, digital marketing infrastructure, or recurring revenue contracts. Its customer base spans enterprise IT companies (Wipro, Samsung, Gensler), financial services (Barclays), pharmaceuticals (Aurobindo Pharma), hospitality (Ayana Hotels), automotive (Lexus), infrastructure (Ramky), and a large roster of Indian real estate developers (Brigade, Casagrand, NCC Urban, Assetz, JRC, Pavani Homes, SRK Infra, and others).

The firm is structured as an India-domiciled Limited Liability Partnership, headquartered at Yelahanka New Town in Bengaluru, with 28 employees and active project sites across Karnataka, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh. Documented projects include a 4.5-acre Wipro IT Park headquarters (completed), a 33-acre SRK residential layout (under construction), a 5-acre Ayana Hotels & Convention Centre (under construction), and a 4.5-acre Team 4 Life Spaces residential apartment project (under construction). The firm has no disclosed funding, no AI/ML capabilities, no patents or trademarks, no formal partnerships, and no certifications.
