The studio
Indian design intelligence, drawn for the world.
Aalekh is a Bangalore architecture and interior design studio, four years old, twenty-four delivered projects, founder-led. We produce renderings, drawings and BIM for architects abroad, and we're building something larger underneath it.

01 The founder
Ar. Pooja Kothari
Pooja is the Principal Architect and founder of Aalekh. She leads design and reviews every set the studio ships, the founder review that travels with the file is hers.
In 2026 she was selected for Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women at NSRCEL, IIM Bangalore, a programme for high-growth women founders. It's a credibility marker, but more than that it's a commitment: to build India's first design-led, globally-positioned architecture studio.

A revival of Indian and regional architectural language, climate logic, vernacular geometry, regional craft, put on the world map as a legitimate movement. India coded the world's software. We're ready to design its spaces.
