About us
Who we are
Established in the year 1966 by T.S. Ramani Sankar and expanding in the year 1987 with the addition of two partners, Sankar & Associates is, today, among the most reputed architectural firms of Southern India with a project profile that cuts across various sizes and complexities, and ranges across a wide spectrum of categories.
We are a firm that pride ourselves in our thoroughness of design, and our ability to bring to life buildings, which are sleek, modern, and appropriate.
Headquartered in Coimbatore with branch offices in Chennai and Bengaluru, our buildings span the length and breadth of India, from Jammu in the north to Nagercoil in the south, and from Ahmedabad in the west to Kolkata in the east. The last few years have also seen our first forays outside India with a specialty hospital project and a integrated textile township project in Nigeria, and three textile units in Togo.
Our Competencies
The twin core competencies of building design, viz. Architectural Design and Structural Design, have always been an integral part of Sankar & Associates right from its very inception. This has enabled us to stand apart from others in successfully integrating both form and function in a building.
