Forest home, designed and built.
Biophilic architecture, landscape, water features and animal habitats, by one team from the first sketch to the last plant.
Vanagṛha is an independent design and build firm in Bengaluru. We design the space, draw and specify every part, build it on site with our own hands and plant it from our own nursery.

Buildings shaped around light, air, water and planting.
Homes and interiors where the green is structural rather than decorative: courtyards that ventilate, walls that grow, rooms that open to a garden rather than look at one.
Homes, courtyards, planted interiors; cafés and workplaces to comeGardens and terraces planted to be lived in.
Walkthroughs, living walls and terrace gardens, with the plants chosen because we grow them and know how they behave through the year.
Terrace gardens, planted walkthroughs, living wallsPonds and streams sculpted in ferrocement.
Ponds, streams, spillways and water walls, sculpted by hand and planted at every edge.
Koi ponds, streams, spillways, water wallsHabitats designed by people who care for the species in them.

The nursery.
Terrarium plants, grown in the same rooms that supply your projects.
We grow exotic plants for our own builds and sell them as well. When the shop opens here, each listing will carry growing notes written by the people who raised the plant.
Message us the word nursery and we will write back when the shop is live.

Every project starts with the living things in it: the light they need, the water they need, the ground they root in. The architecture follows.
