Based in Ahmedabad, India and practicing for the past four years, Anthill Design is an architectural collaborative of three young architects - Sarosh Anklesaria, Roma Pandya and Riyaz Tayyibji. Within the larger gamut of environmental and socio–cultural issues, the firm seeks to evolve an architecture which is rooted in and specific to its own site and program and condition.
