Redefining Rural and Urbanscapes

19 Million Deficit in Urban Housing 

24 Million Deficit in Rural Housing 

We envision every Indian with a habitable home

 Nivasa is an Architectural Not for Profit Trust, working to enable humane and dignified housing conditions for the urban and rural poor, through design. Architectural Intervention in design and materials is essential, but not affordable for the lower income group in India.


 We use Design Based Thinking - a mindset that  focuses on solutions and on actions oriented towards creating a preferred future by drawing on logic and imagination. 

 Our approach  uses a designer’s methods to match people’s needs with what is technologically feasible.  Using a People-Centered approach, we involve the home owner in the decision making process, and the product. We interact with local communities, collaborate with the Government, NGOs, Developers, contractors,  corporates and individuals, engage the Architectural community in R&D of alternative materials and construction  methodologies and volunteerism,  derive specific, local and cost effective designs to arrive at strategies for implementation that involves awareness & training, constructing prototypes, and helping to construct, where required.
