Anahata is characterized by their distinctive approach to architecture, viewing it as a form of art. In this perspective, architecture serves as the canvas, while light and materials—especially white walls, concrete, stone, brass, and wood—act as the medium of expression. They like to explore the purest of forms with each volume getting its own space and meaning within the composition.
They believe that the ultimate canvas is the human experience, where the synergy between the art and architecture isn’t a conceptual abstraction but a lived reality, where spaces mold emotions, stimulate thoughts and spark creativity. Its triumph lies in transcending the functional, transforming the built environment into a realm where everyday life becomes an artistic expression. The interplay between art and architecture advocates for a holistic approach, dissolving the boundaries between these disciplines.
