What we do

We design and build homes in Bangalore. Architecture and construction held by one studio. Sangeetha walks every site. Sathya runs the build. Six commissions a year.

Architecture-led.

Every home is designed by Sangeetha. No templates. No shared elevations.

One contract.

Design, structure, interiors, and construction under one studio. One number to call.

Six a year.

We start six homes a year. Each one gets the studio's full attention from first sketch to handover.

The studio

Sangeetha and Sathya.

A mother-and-son architect-engineer practice. Sangeetha is the principal architect — twenty years of practice, eighty Bangalore homes designed. Sathya is the engineer — NIT Karnataka — and he runs the studio's operations and the build.

How a Studio Spetia project works.

Five stages, eleven to eighteen months.

01

Site.

It starts on WhatsApp. You send your plot details — location, dimensions, an approximate budget, when you're hoping to start. Sangeetha or Sathya replies within twenty-four hours. There is no sales team. The first conversation is with the architect or the engineer who will work on your home.

02

Drawing.

If we agree to work together, we sign a small concept-design contract — typically three to six weeks of design exploration. During this phase, Sangeetha sketches by hand. We meet two or three times.

03

Approval.

Bangalore plot approvals depend on your Khata. A-Khata under BBMP. Panchayat plots under the local authority. BDA layouts under BDA. We tell you which one applies on day one, and we file the drawings with the right office. You do not chase the approval consultant — we do.

04

Build.

Construction takes nine to fifteen months depending on the size of the home. Sangeetha walks the site every two weeks. Sathya is on site every working day, supervising the build. The site engineer reports to him.

05

Handover and after.

When the home is ready, we walk through it together. We hand over keys and a folder containing every drawing, every approval, every warranty card, every vendor contact.

The three tiers.

Studio Spetia takes commissions at three scopes.

Atelier

Single-family Bangalore homes from 2,400 to 4,000 square feet. Eleven to fourteen months from agreement to keys. Architecture, structure, interiors, and construction under one Studio Spetia contract. Designed by Sangeetha. Built under her direct site supervision.

Bespoke

Larger homes from 4,000 to 6,500 square feet. Fourteen to sixteen months. Atelier scope plus custom millwork, full landscape design, and lighting design. Sangeetha is named on the contract as design lead — every detail comes through her.

Estate

6,500 square feet and above. Sixteen to eighteen months. The studio's full-scope offering. Full custom villa with structural engineering, custom millwork, landscape build, lighting design, and architectural photography of the finished home. Post-occupancy snagging through Year One is included.

2026 schedule

Three slots open for 2026 starts.

We start six homes a year in Bangalore. As of May 2026, three slots remain for projects starting this year.
