About
Kavita Sastry
An alumni of BMSCE - her design philosophy is a simple marriage of form and function, aesthetics and practicality using elements that are organic, natural and sustainable. She usually loves a bit of drama, be it through art, quirky piece of furniture, or lighting. A love for nature guides the practice encompassing architecture, interiors and landscape design.
In 2016, she initiated CoDe Studio at IIID, that focuses on doing pro bono design for community projects in Bangalore. This collaborative studio has completed numerous government schools and orphanages, including the restoration of the 110 year old government school in Murphy town. For this project, she was awarded a commendation at the IIA National Awards 2023 and she also received the silver medal at ARCASIA Awards for Architecture 2023 held at Boracay Island, Philippines.
