THREE ENGAGEMENTS. ONE STUDIO.
TIER 1 — VISION
For premium residences and farmhouses up to 10,000 sq ft. The complete architectural idea — resolved, rendered, and ready to build from. We develop the full concept: site response, massing, facade character, floor plans, sections, and the interior logic of your key spaces. Every material decision, every proportion, every threshold is considered. Delivered as 8 cinematic hero renders and one walk-through video — so you see exactly what you are building before a single stone is laid.

TIER 2 — SIGNATURE
For villas, farmhouses, and boutique hotels between 10,000–40,000 sq ft. For projects where every room must be right. This engagement goes deeper — into every living space, every corridor, every view. We develop a complete interior concept across all primary spaces, a curated materials and finishes specification book, and a bespoke facade study that responds to climate, context, and culture. For hotel and hospitality projects, we resolve the arrival sequence, lobby character, suite typology, and F&B concept as part of the architectural brief.

TIER 3 — ATELIER
For ultra-premium villas, private estates, landmark hotels, members' clubs, and destination malls — projects of international ambition and consequence. Some projects cannot be categorised. They must be imagined. The Atelier engagement is our most comprehensive — a bespoke, multi-phase collaboration scoped entirely around your project and its ambitions. We work across architecture, interior concept, landscape idea, brand character, and experiential design to deliver a complete vision that holds together from the master plan to the door handle.

OUR APPROACH
RESTRAINT OVER DECORATION
The room is restrained — one strong headboard, one strong artwork, nothing else competing
STORY BEFORE FORM
The staircase is a moment, a threshold, a reveal — exactly what this principle describes
LIGHT AS MATERIAL
Light is literally the material — the artwork only exists because of how it is lit

the Design
ABHISHEK RK KHANNA
Founder & Principal Architect
Abhishek founded Awon in 2014 with a simple commitment: design architecture in India that doesn't apologise for being from India. He leads every project personally from brief to handover — residences, villas, and resorts distinguished by restraint, material clarity, and precision of light.
TANVVI M KHANNA
Principal Architect
Tanvvi brings deep precision to spatial narrative and material development. Her work ensures every Awon project holds its emotional intent from first sketch to final render — overseeing the interior concept, material palette, and finish specifications that give each project its specific character.
