Figure Ground Inc. is a multi-disciplinary firm with a combined experience of 20-plus years in the Architecture & Urban Planning & Interior Design industry. Our design experience ranges from various projects from IITs & IIMs, AMRUT developmental schemes, Residential and Commercial work to Furniture & Graphic Design.
The inception of our logo lies in the walled city of Jaipur & is based on an archaic notion of the Cosmos, the Navagraha Mandala. Just like the walled city planning, one of the squares is moved aside, to recall the idea behind the original planning principle.
The Figure Ground of the Walled City of Jaipur explains the nuances of a complex relationship between the built & the unbuilt spaces of the city. These fundamental concepts form the core of our design philosophy at Figure Ground Inc.
