White Design Allies

White Design Allies We are Architects and Designers. We combine our passion for the applied arts with our experience in Our philosophy is that every project is unique.

By taking time to fully understand each projects brief and context we can elevate any product or experience. We are White Design Allies, created by Architects Arthi and Shraddha in September 2011. We established our practice to combine our passion for the applied arts with our experiences in architecture and design to create unique and innovative solutions for our clients. We undertake work in arc

hitecture, interior design, urban design, branding, set design and temporary installations. We are always looking to blur the boundaries between design disciplines and scales. We draw our inspiration from a variety of sources, mixing the latest global trends with local skills and cultural references for truly individual results. White recently increased its presence in India with Shraddha moving to Mumbai to focus on potential projects there. Arthi and Jon remain in Chennai where a number of exciting architecture and interior design projects are ongoing.All our projects are designed to be appropriate to their social and economic context to ensure their long term sustainability. White believes that design has the capability to solve many of the world’s problems. We aspire to help improve the built (and therefore socio-economic) environment and encourage small businesses by involving ourselves with local community groups, universities and charities.

Exciting News!

WDA have been appointed to design our largest project to date: a Visitor and Museum complex for the Jain Navagraha Temple on ECR, on the outskirts of Chennai.

Facilities will include a Visitor Centre, Interactive Museum / Gallery Spaces, Library, Auditorium, Cafeteria, Open Air Theatre and Accommodation.

Key to the design concept will be the existing intricately carved white marble temple which will form the focal point of the scheme.

Over the coming weeks we will be developing a masterplan for the site before developing detailed designs for the new buildings and landscape.
