50 Amazing Homes in India is a Skyboard Media’s flagship publication. Skyboard is a media firm that creates high quality content focusing on Indian architecture and design. This book is the first of its kind in India, combining superior publication design with innovative virtual reality in every page.
While at Kena Design, along with the Design Head (Kumkum Nadig ), Senior Designer (Prachi Prabhu) & Design Team
(Kiruthika Mani & Deval Maniar), the book was conceptualized & designed. The book consists of 50 architectural projects;
each having its own voice and together a visual library and harmony of well designed projects. Careful attention was paid
to every element of the book –-the narrative flow, selection of photographs, typographic treatment of the content,
the colour palette and graphic elements.

Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) is a global non-profit organisation which generates interdisciplinary knowledge to inform policy and practice towards conservation and sustainability.
I along with the team at Kena Design had designed ATREE’s annual report. The report was designed with an earthy and humane feel towards it, keeping in mind the company's sensitivity towards conserving nature and developing the environment. Hand made sketches and illustrations specific to the content were created and used throughout. The layout was designed to be simple with the main message highlighted, the color palette was made subtle so that it didn't overpower the message or images.
