The Practice Behind ADC India.
Founded in Lucknow in 2005 by architect and urban planner PK Verma, ADC India is an architecture practice working across private, commercial and institutional buildings.
ADC India’s architecture-led turnkey approach brings design, interiors, technical coordination and construction together, keeping architectural decisions connected to the work on site.
Architecture Shaped by the Brief.
The site, intended use and client priorities shape how ADC India plans each building. Where relevant, we ask about Vaastu preferences early so they can be considered alongside the site and functional brief rather than introduced after the plan is established. A home, an urban hotel and a school campus call for different decisions about access, scale and shared space.
Proportion, materials and technical requirements are weighed together, keeping the building’s character connected to how its spaces will function.
01
Site + Setting
Access, neighbouring buildings, orientation and open space influence how a building occupies its plot and presents itself.
02
Space + Experience
Proportions, daylight, privacy and the relationship between rooms are considered around the people who will use them.
03
Form + Identity
Façade depth, openings, massing and scale give each building an architectural character appropriate to its purpose.
04
Interiors + Materials
Materials, lighting and interior details extend that character into the spaces people encounter every day.
05
Technical Integration
Structure, services and construction constraints are considered as design develops, where they affect spaces, detailing and the final architectural expression.
Important Choices Stay With the Client.
You remain involved in the building’s function, character and significant investment decisions. ADC coordinates the agreed consultants, interior teams, suppliers and construction work, so routine site management does not fall to you.
- Define the Brief
- Establish the site, intended use, priorities and budget considerations before major architectural decisions are fixed.
- Approve the Design
- Review consequential planning, façade, interior and material choices as the design and technical inputs develop.
- Stay Informed on Site
- ADC coordinates routine delivery work and brings forward changes that materially affect the approved design, scope or costs.
