At Ankit Makani Architects (AMA), we don’t just draw floor plans; we
engineer experiences.
We are a multidisciplinary studio that thrives on the challenge of turning a blank site into
a landmark.
Our design language is rooted in a simple truth: architecture should be as dynamic as the
people who inhabit it.
From iconic, gravity-defying facades to interiors that tell a story, we bring a fresh,
innovative edge to every project we touch.

The Blueprint: Our “Deep-Dive” Process
We don’t believe in cookie-cutter design. For us, the magic happens in the groundwork.
Every masterpiece follows a rigorous, collaborative journey:
The Brief & Site Soul-Search:
We start by listening. We dive deep into your brief and conduct an intensive site
analysis—studying the light, wind, soil, and surroundings.
Research & Collaboration:
We don’t work in a vacuum. Our team engages in intense brainstorming, explores new
materials, and collaborates across disciplines to uncover the “X-factor” for your space.
The Planning Pivot:
Only after decoding the DNA of the project do we move to the drawing board. Our planning
blends scientific precision with creative intuition.
03
Our Design Signature: Facades That Speak
We are obsessed with the “Skin of the Building.”
Our expertise lies in crafting innovative, aesthetically striking facades that define
skylines.
Our design language reflects modern innovation—clean lines, bold textures, and a fearless
creative spirit.

The AMA Culture: High Energy, Zero Compromise
How do we hit every deadline without losing our spark?
Simple: Teamwork and Enthusiasm.
Our studio is a high-energy Design Lab where precision meets passion.
We are a squad of dreamers who are serious about deadlines but obsessed with quality.
We don’t just provide solutions—we hunt for newer, smarter, and more sustainable ideas that
push the boundaries of what’s possible.

AR. ANKIT MAKANI
Principal Architect
Ar. Ankit Makani
Principal Architect
Ankit Makani is a passionate architect driven by clarity of thought, attention to detail, and a deep commitment to purposeful design. As the founder and principal of AMA Architects, Ankit leads with a balance of creativity and discipline — shaping spaces that are as functional as they are expressive.He is the one who breaks the mold of the "stuffy professional."Known for his high-energy leadership and "chilled-out" persona, Ankit fosters a firm culture where creativity isn't forced—it's felt.
He believes that the best ideas come when the team is happy, the coffee is hot, and the vibe is relaxed.His approach is simple: Stay humble, stay hungry, and keep it fun. Under his guidance, AMA has become more than just a firm; it’s a creative movement where the atmosphere is as cool as the designs we produce.Ankit’s style of leadership is rare. It’s not loud or authoritative — it’s magnetic. He has the uncanny ability to make people believe in ideas they hadn’t even thought of yet. He doesn’t push; he pulls the best out of everyone around him. His presence at AMA Architects isn’t just architectural — it’s architectural in spirit, forming invisible frameworks of confidence, freedom, and curiosity that allow everyone around him to do their best work.
He’s known to sketch five versions of a concept in under a minute, to rethink a façade mid-conversation, or reimagine a space over coffee — and yet, he’ll pause and ask his junior-most intern, “What do you think?” Not because he needs input — but because he believes brilliance can come from anywhere, and often does.
His laughter rings louder than his phone. His curiosity is louder than convention. His joy — real, grounded, and constant — sets the tone for AMA’s culture: an atelier that feels less like an office and more like a creative laboratory where imagination is always encouraged and no one leaves without a smile.
Ankit doesn’t just design structures. He designs belief. He teaches by doing, inspires by being, and somehow — in the middle of deadlines, drawings, and decisions — makes time to celebrate the smallest victories.
Ask anyone on his team, and they’ll tell you:He doesn’t walk into the room with answers. He walks in with energy — and that’s what makes the answers come.
In Ankit’s world, architecture isn’t just lines and logic — it’s emotion, motion, and magic. And behind every project signed “AMA,” there’s his fingerprint — light, intentional, and full of life.
