What SSSA Architects does

SSSA Architects (legal name: Sunil Saini Sushil Aggarwal Architects) is a New Delhi-based private architecture and interior design firm founded in 1986 by SPA graduates Sunil Saini and Sushil Aggarwal. The firm delivers comprehensive architectural design, interior design, and master planning services across eleven vertical categories: culture and cultural buildings, education, hospitality, housing and masterplanning, industrial facilities, interiors, medical/healthcare, office buildings, residential, retail and entertainment, and sports infrastructure. Its core technical stack relies on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and building performance simulation tools used to detail projects to fine granularity and verify predicted against actual building performance. Engagement is direct-to-client and project-based, with fees earned per design commission across enterprise, government, trust, and private clients including Maruti Suzuki, Hindustan Unilever, Indian Navy, and O.P. Jindal Trust.

The firm operates from a single headquarters at Greater Kailash Part-1 in New Delhi with a disclosed core team of six, supplemented by a third partner, Kinshuk Aggarwal, whose international training in sustainable urbanism (The Bartlett, UCL) broadens the practice's strategic capability set. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, supported by a professional portfolio website displaying 23+ client brand logos and 227 documented completed projects as of 2023. Geographic footprint is overwhelmingly domestic (New Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, among others), with one disclosed international engagement in Egypt.

The business model is professional services: revenue is earned through one-time, scope-based design fees negotiated per project, with no disclosed standard pricing tiers, subscription component, or recurring revenue stream. Marketing is limited to the firm's own website portfolio and brand-logo display. Multiple national design competition awards (Salarjung Museum 1990, M.S. University Baroda 1993) and Indian Buildings Congress awards (Zeco Aircon 2006, Noida Expo-Centre 2008) serve as primary credibility assets. No external institutional investment, partnerships, subsidiaries, or M&A activity is disclosed.
