Heritage restoration — photography pending for individual sites

Conservation and structural restoration across some of Kolkata's most significant heritage institutions — La Martiniere for Boys, the YMCA Central Kolkata building, and multiple engagements at St. Thomas' School Kidderpore, including extension blocks, a proposed law college and a proposed Olympic-standard swimming pool complex.

At La Martiniere for Boys, the restoration demanded the ability to read a 19th-century structure and intervene with the lightest possible hand while keeping it safe and serviceable.

At the YMCA Central Kolkata, the mandate was dual: restore the heritage fabric while upgrading systems to contemporary standards.

At St. Thomas' School Kidderpore, the firm has served across extension blocks for the boys' and girls' schools, a proposed law college and a proposed open-air stadium with an Olympic-standard pool. Institutional works for the Churches of North India (CNI) complete the portfolio.

Photographs for these individual sites are pending.
