About


Baghorama is a young Landscape Design practice based in Pune

Bāghorama Landscape Architects is a young design practice based in Pune, India. We are a group of three passionate landscape architects  who see ourselves as innovative and inventive, ever willing to take on new challenges, and most importantly, capable of personifying these qualities through our works.

Overview

B ā g h o r a m a , as the name suggests is all about gardens (Bāgh). The garden is the most basic manifestation of Landscape.
At B ā g h o r a m a , we seek to embody Landscapes at all scales, from a small terrace garden, to vast campuses and estates. Each of these manifestations is, in essence a Bāgh.
We believe in creating Landscapes as windows to the natural world, as places and spaces that are ever-changing, temporal and unique to every project.

Landscape and People have been inextricably connected with each other since times immemorial.  By studying this connection through research and reading, and learning from it, we strive to develop ideas and derivations into our designs. This makes our designs products of creativity, backed with a keen understanding of the value systems embedded in the context of every project. 

Culture and way of life resides in the smallest of small families, and influences virtually all the choices, decisions and thinking. By understanding these influences and the way they change with place, we strive to maximize our designs’ response to the users’ needs.
