SHIVARAO CHANNAPATTAN
B.Arch., M.Arch (UD-CEPT), MSc Cities (LSE, UK)
Managing Director - ADSGDV, Dubai, UAE
Guided by a strong belief in the power of design to shape spaces, communities, and economies, he founded Atelier Dsync (ADS) in India - 2013 and ADS Global Design Ventures in Dubai - 2025—an international practice built on collaboration and social responsiveness.
An alumnus of BVBCET, Karnataka, he refined his passion for urbanism with a Master‘s in Urban Design at CEPT, Ahmedabad, and later deepened his perspective at the London School of Economics, UK, with an MSc in City Design & Social Science.
Over two decades, he has led transformative work across scales of master planning and architecture. His journey includes pioneering projects such as JP Sports‘ Formula-One Sports City Master Plan, Reliance Haryana SEZ in Delhi-NCR, and the Landscape Master Plan for the iconic ‘Dandi Kutir‘ museum at Mahatma Mandir, Gandhinagar.
At present, as both designer and entrepreneur, he continues to bridge vision with business strategy, with a strong focus on entertainment and hospitality architecture. His portfolio spans acclaimed projects like Loco Bear in Bangalore and Dubai, as well as K‘s Charcoal, The Boho, and Thyme & Whisk in India— each noted for its contextual relevance and conceptual clarity. His latest venture, Loco Lane, represents a bold step into sensory-driven design, crafting immersive social environments that transcend function to become cultural experiences.
Through every project, he pushes design beyond convention, creating spaces where context, community, and creativity converge.

KARISHMA DESAI (INDIA)
B.Arch. M.Arch (UD-CEPT), MALU (AA, UK)
Creative Director - Atelier Dsync (ADS), INDIA
Her design journey has been defined by a singular quest—to envision Co-existent Communities as an alternative model for future urbanism. This pursuit first took shape during her undergraduate years at SCET, Surat, where her dissertation sparked a deeper curiosity for cities and their evolving forms. Determined to expand this inquiry, she pursued a Master‘s in Urban Design at CEPT University, Ahmedabad, and later refined her vision at the Architectural Association, London, through the Landscape Urbanism programme. Here, she began to interrogate the complex relationship between natural landforms and the built environment, shaping a design philosophy rooted in harmony with nature.
Over the last 15 years, she has worked extensively with both public and private sector organizations, contributing to large-scale real estate, housing, and urban design projects. From the 1,250-acre JP Greens housing masterplan in Noida, to Experion‘s 25-acre group housing in Gurgaon, Adani‘s 10-acre Aangan affordable housing in Gurgaon, and the 16.5-acre Arah Housing for Bihar Housing Board, her work has consistently explored design as a catalyst for livable, inclusive, and sustainable communities.
Her academic engagements further complement her practice—she has taught as a Unit Master at the Architectural Association, London, while remaining deeply involved in research. Her focus lies in developing innovative tools and strategies that can amplify the distinctiveness of place, while weaving people, ecology, and urban form into a cohesive whole.
Through her practice, teaching, and research, she continues to explore how cities can evolve as ecosystems—sensitive, resilient, and co-existent.
