Testimonials
Aakruthi Residence
At the outset, we would like to thank Architect Prathima Seethur and her team for
the opportunity to voice our appreciation and gratitude in the tremendous role
that they played in the construction of our home “AAKRUTI” at Rajarajeshwari
Nagar. The fact that both my wife and myself are software professionals by trade
and absolute novices when it came to house construction would have been pretty
apparent by the way we originally approached Prathima with a series of pictures (
both clandestinely taken from the neighbourhood and scavenged from the
internet ) and requested her to basically do a copy-paste job of putting together
our dream abode. Rather than taking the easy route , Prathima took the trouble of
educating us on our choices , the scale of the project and most importantly, the
impact it could have on our purses.
Industry standards dictate that the traditional role of an architect is to produce an
engineering plan for the project and in the process, introduce extravagant finishes
and grandiose “designer” designs that look fantastic in pictures of an architecture
magazine. But , in our opinion , the difference that an architect can bring to a
construction project is the degree of “livability” – the small touches that
differentiate a house that we adjust to and a home that surrounds us with natural
comfort . This is the difference that the Wright inspires team brings to the table –
the small touches that make a world of difference in the end. When we moved into
our new home, it just felt “right” immediately – All thanks to Prathima and her
team
Prathima was a very hands on architect – most of the time sacrificing weekends to
ensure that she channels our thought processes in making the several decisions
that go into the project. Even small things like selection of tile or selection of a
paint color – Prathima was ALWAYS around in person and our options and the
relative pros & cons were clearly explained so that we can make an educated
decision. We were blessed with a fantastic team that came recommended by
Prathima ; The Wright Inspires team along with the team of Balaji constructions (
managed by Mr. Srinivas and project lead Mr.Aftab Pasha ) , Mr.Giridhar
(Electricals) and Mr.Suresh (Interiors) were an absolute delight to work with. They
were keen to listen, quick to understand and efficient in implementation. My
heartfelt thanks to the entire team for making the entire process so peaceful.
I hear people speaking about the stress in building their homes, the agony of
unfinished projects , problems with finances / budget over-runs and the heartburn
of perennially delayed homes ; Short of rubbing it in , all we can say is it was a
pleasure dealing with Prathima and her team right through the construction
project. Our home is always available as a readymade reference and we would be
more than happy to personally vouch for her any number of times.

Advaitha Residence
Prathima and her team are outstanding ! The best I have worked with and helped us realize our beautiful home. The competence manifests both in the great quality of architectural work and the great team for civil, electrical. Interiors, plumbing and so on assembled by them. To watch them work and see an idea come alive is in itself a great experience. In addition, prathima is very accessible and always available to have a chat and discuss. The relationship with the team is being one of friends vs a conventional client relationship and this makes the often intimidating task of constructing a house very accessible..
Aprameya Residence
"In our opinion, project 'Aprameya' was quite challenging considering that it had to cater to a clientele consisting of two generations of the same household. Given a relatively limited space, the requirement was to design a contemporary living space to suit our lifestyle while seamlessly integrating our cultural and emotional sensibilities. Further, having a part of the clientele live abroad during the course of construction presented certain geographical challenges that had to be addressed while selecting the architect. Prathima Seethur’s Wright Inspires came in highly recommended and after a brief discussion and a tour of her previous projects, we entrusted her with the responsibility of realizing our dreams.
Every interaction with Prathima and her team through the various stages of the project was an enlightening experience. In addition to the conventional areas of our home, sprinkling of flora throughout the house blends various parts of the home into one calming living space which is in tune with nature.
Engaging Wright Inspires took the stress out of building a house. Given a free-hand, the right architect can probably do a better job than one can imagine. Communication, trust and inter-personal relationship are the corner-stones of a successful client-architect relationship. We are indeed fortunate that what began as a professional relationship has been forged into a good friendship. Thank you Prathima Seethur and the Wright Inspires team; it was indeed a pleasure working with you.

Chidanand Residence
Many times have I written about the modest little home that the wonderful Jaisim Krishna Rao and Prathima Seethur built for us in Bangalore. Next only to our fabulous family and friends and the clement weather (despite climate change decline in recent years) in Bangalore, our home is what entices us to make frequent visits. Well, the philosophical underpinnings of the Rao-Seethur architecture -- interplay of open spaces, air, light etc, the sourcing of local materials, the organics of the home etc -- goes back to, among others, Balkrishna Doshi, who was today honored with the #PritzkerPrize, which is the #Nobel equivalent for architecture and the highest honor in the profession. Previous winners include I.M.Pei, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, among others -- Doshi is the first Indian to be honored with it.
You can read all about it in the papers, but among the many charming anecdotes associated with the building of our home, I'll recall one. I wanted a large living room with a high domed ceiling, but I was concerned that there would be too much echo in such a structure. The conversation with Jaisim went like this.
Jaisim: "So what is an echo and how does it happen?"
Me: "When sound hits a flat surface and bounces back"
Jaisim: "Well then we won't have a flat surface"
Thus it came to be that our home has a high curved ceiling that is serrated and not flat...and no echo. People like Jaisim and Doshi simplify life -- and architecture.
Another time, I mused with him about how in the U.S I had noticed that during parties all our friends congregated around the kitchen/dining area, and how it had the most footprint and so much of our life revolved around the kitchen. He produced for us a kitchen from where we can now cook, look out at the front entrance, back entrance, a kitchen garden to the side, observe the various daily transactions (milkman, vegetable vendor, paperwala) plus also engage with guests in the dining area and in the living room (effectively we can cook and talk to people facing them; most kitchens in India have cooking range against the wall which means you have your back to your guests). More on all this later, but for now Balkrishna Doshi...

Hosabelaku Residence
The making of HOSABELAKU, our dream home!
We are extremely glad that we chose Prathima Seethur from Wright Inspires to make our dream home project come true.
We wanted to have a well lit and ventilated, nature friendly home. Though it wasn’t a fresh project, she had to renovate an already existing duplex house. Prathima considered priorities of all our family members, on how we are wanted our space to look and what was the utility of each space for each of us. She made sure at each level of the construction our opinions and suggestions were considered and brought to reality.
Finally we saw that we had our dream home with ample natural light, good ventilation, nature friendly flooring, pergolas, ample space for indoor and outdoor gardening with parking space, all in a 30*40 plot. The transformation was phenomenal!
We are thankful to the entire team who took care of all the detailing that we expected in our dream home-HOSABELAKU.

We are indeed fortunate that what began as a professional relationship has been forged into a good friendship. Thank you Prathima Seethur and the Wright Inspires team; it was indeed a pleasure working with you.

Many times have I written about the modest little home that the wonderful Jaisim Krishna Rao and Prathima Seethur built for us in Bangalore. Next only to our fabulous family and friends and the clement weather (despite climate change decline in recent years) in Bangalore, our home is what entices us to make frequent visits. Well, the philosophical underpinnings of the Rao-Seethur architecture -- interplay of open spaces, air, light etc, the sourcing of local materials, the organics of the home etc -- goes back to, among others, Balkrishna Doshi, who was today honored with the #PritzkerPrize, which is the #Nobel equivalent for architecture and the highest honor in the profession. Previous winners include I.M.Pei, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, among others -- Doshi is the first Indian to be honored with it.
You can read all about it in the papers, but among the many charming anecdotes associated with the building of our home, I'll recall one. I wanted a large living room with a high domed ceiling, but I was concerned that there would be too much echo in such a structure. The conversation with Jaisim went like this.
Jaisim: "So what is an echo and how does it happen?"
Me: "When sound hits a flat surface and bounces back"
Jaisim: "Well then we won't have a flat surface"
Thus it came to be that our home has a high curved ceiling that is serrated and not flat...and no echo. People like Jaisim and Doshi simplify life -- and architecture.
Another time, I mused with him about how in the U.S I had noticed that during parties all our friends congregated around the kitchen/dining area, and how it had the most footprint and so much of our life revolved around the kitchen. He produced for us a kitchen from where we can now cook, look out at the front entrance, back entrance, a kitchen garden to the side, observe the various daily transactions (milkman, vegetable vendor, paperwala) plus also engage with guests in the dining area and in the living room (effectively we can cook and talk to people facing them; most kitchens in India have cooking range against the wall which means you have your back to your guests). More on all this later, but for now Balkrishna Doshi...

The making of HOSABELAKU, our dream home!
We are extremely glad that we chose Prathima Seethur from Wright Inspires to make our dream home project come true.
We wanted to have a well lit and ventilated, nature friendly home. Though it wasn’t a fresh project, she had to renovate an already existing duplex house. Prathima considered priorities of all our family members, on how we are wanted our space to look and what was the utility of each space for each of us. She made sure at each level of the construction our opinions and suggestions were considered and brought to reality.
Finally we saw that we had our dream home with ample natural light, good ventilation, nature friendly flooring, pergolas, ample space for indoor and outdoor gardening with parking space, all in a 30*40 plot. The transformation was phenomenal!
We are thankful to the entire team who took care of all the detailing that we expected in our dream home-HOSABELAKU.

At the outset, we would like to thank Architect Prathima Seethur and her team for
the opportunity to voice our appreciation and gratitude in the tremendous role
that they played in the construction of our home “AAKRUTI” at Rajarajeshwari
Nagar. The fact that both my wife and myself are software professionals by trade
and absolute novices when it came to house construction would have been pretty
apparent by the way we originally approached Prathima with a series of pictures (
both clandestinely taken from the neighbourhood and scavenged from the
internet ) and requested her to basically do a copy-paste job of putting together
our dream abode. Rather than taking the easy route , Prathima took the trouble of
educating us on our choices , the scale of the project and most importantly, the
impact it could have on our purses.
Industry standards dictate that the traditional role of an architect is to produce an
engineering plan for the project and in the process, introduce extravagant finishes
and grandiose “designer” designs that look fantastic in pictures of an architecture
magazine. But , in our opinion , the difference that an architect can bring to a
construction project is the degree of “livability” – the small touches that
differentiate a house that we adjust to and a home that surrounds us with natural
comfort . This is the difference that the Wright inspires team brings to the table –
the small touches that make a world of difference in the end. When we moved into
our new home, it just felt “right” immediately – All thanks to Prathima and her
team
Prathima was a very hands on architect – most of the time sacrificing weekends to
ensure that she channels our thought processes in making the several decisions
that go into the project. Even small things like selection of tile or selection of a
paint color – Prathima was ALWAYS around in person and our options and the
relative pros & cons were clearly explained so that we can make an educated
decision. We were blessed with a fantastic team that came recommended by
Prathima ; The Wright Inspires team along with the team of Balaji constructions (
managed by Mr. Srinivas and project lead Mr.Aftab Pasha ) , Mr.Giridhar
(Electricals) and Mr.Suresh (Interiors) were an absolute delight to work with. They
were keen to listen, quick to understand and efficient in implementation. My
heartfelt thanks to the entire team for making the entire process so peaceful.
I hear people speaking about the stress in building their homes, the agony of
unfinished projects , problems with finances / budget over-runs and the heartburn
of perennially delayed homes ; Short of rubbing it in , all we can say is it was a
pleasure dealing with Prathima and her team right through the construction
project. Our home is always available as a readymade reference and we would be
more than happy to personally vouch for her any number of times.

Advaitha Residence
Prathima and her team are outstanding ! The best I have worked with and helped us realize our beautiful home. The competence manifests both in the great quality of architectural work and the great team for civil, electrical. Interiors, plumbing and so on assembled by them. To watch them work and see an idea come alive is in itself a great experience. In addition, prathima is very accessible and always available to have a chat and discuss. The relationship with the team is being one of friends vs a conventional client relationship and this makes the often intimidating task of constructing a house very accessible..
Aprameya Residence
"In our opinion, project 'Aprameya' was quite challenging considering that it had to cater to a clientele consisting of two generations of the same household. Given a relatively limited space, the requirement was to design a contemporary living space to suit our lifestyle while seamlessly integrating our cultural and emotional sensibilities. Further, having a part of the clientele live abroad during the course of construction presented certain geographical challenges that had to be addressed while selecting the architect. Prathima Seethur’s Wright Inspires came in highly recommended and after a brief discussion and a tour of her previous projects, we entrusted her with the responsibility of realizing our dreams.
Every interaction with Prathima and her team through the various stages of the project was an enlightening experience. In addition to the conventional areas of our home, sprinkling of flora throughout the house blends various parts of the home into one calming living space which is in tune with nature.
Engaging Wright Inspires took the stress out of building a house. Given a free-hand, the right architect can probably do a better job than one can imagine. Communication, trust and inter-personal relationship are the corner-stones of a successful client-architect relationship. We are indeed fortunate that what began as a professional relationship has been forged into a good friendship. Thank you Prathima Seethur and the Wright Inspires team; it was indeed a pleasure working with you.
