About us
A small studio that sweats the details.
Tatva means 'element'. Ananya Rao started the studio in 2014 with the idea that a home is built from a few honest elements: wood, light, colour and the way a family lives (sample story).
Today we're a team of 28 designers, project managers and carpenters, with our own factory in Hosur so we control finish and dates.

What we stand by
Live first, look second
Layouts start from routines, storage and light.
Honest materials
BWP plywood, real veneer, named brands. No surprises inside the cabinet.
Dates we keep
A move-in date in writing, with a penalty if we miss it.
Small team, one face
One project manager from measure to handover.

What clients say
The style quiz said 'warm minimal' before I'd said a word. That's exactly the brief Ananya worked from.
Shruthi Iyer, Whitefield (sample)
We moved in on the date they gave us, with curtains up and the pooja room lit. Ten weeks, as promised.
Raghav and Neha Bhat, JP Nagar (sample)
Every rupee was on the budget sheet. When we upgraded the counter, we saw the new total the same day.
