Dear Reader,

Hello, and thank you for being here.

I’m Aishwarya Pillai — a registered architect (Council of Architecture, India) with a dual master’s in Urban Design and City Planning from The Bartlett, UCL, and Architectural Design from Cardiff University.

Over the past four years, I’ve worked across the fields of architecture and urban design — from crafting intimate spatial experiences to contributing to broader strategic visions for cities. My approach is grounded in curiosity, care, and a deep interest in how design can respond to complexity with clarity and purpose.

This portfolio is a curated reflection of that journey — a selection of work, research, and collaborations that speak to the values I bring into practice.

Warm regards,
Aishwarya
