Rootslandscape Architects, Pune

Rootslandscape Architects, Pune is actually based at Banashankari 3rd Stage in Bangalore. It sounds a bit confusing because of the name, but this is where we do all our work. We focus on landscapes, which means we spend a lot of time thinking about plants, soil, and outdoor spaces. Our office in Bangalore is where we sit down to plan out gardens and green areas. It's a messy place sometimes, with pots and dirt samples lying around alongside our drawing tools. We aren't a big corporate firm; we are just a small group that likes being outdoors and working with nature. Banashankari is a nice area with a lot of trees, which fits what we do. We don't have a receptionist or a fancy lobby. If you come by, you’ll probably find us hunched over a large map or talking about irrigation pipes. We try to keep our designs simple and useful for the people who will actually use the gardens. Bangalore weather is usually good for this kind of work, though the rain sometimes messes up our site visits. We don't use any fancy sales pitches. We just show people what we can do with a bit of land and some plants. It’s a lot of physical work and a lot of planning, but we enjoy the process of seeing things grow over time. We just keep working away here in the 3rd Stage, trying to make the most of the space we have.
