Humming Tree
Award-Winning Design Studio
Transforming residential, commercial & hospitality spaces with artful architecture, interiors & landscape.
THE FIRM
Afnan & Arun co-founded Humming Tree , it’s primarily an architecture practice based in Calicut, Kerala for Art I Architecture I Design. With 12+ years of experience our studio constantly explores architecture & design quintessence by measuring projects on their impact and inclusive dialogue among context, geometry, and visual expression.
Afnan & Arun met at university while studying architecture in Bijapur. After uni days, Afnan worked for a couple of months in Kerala, where [Afnan] interned with Rajesh, Techno Architects, and [Arun] with Praveen Bavadekar, Thirdspace Studio. They gained significant insights from them on effective collaboration and the use of colors and forms in a matrix.
“The way we work now—our designs, our processes—our entire life, actually—is a collaboration. Our combined experiences shape our unique perspective and approach to design. While it can be challenging when two different sensibilities offer contrasting options, it ultimately enriches the dialogue and strengthens the outcome,” says Arun.
Their work is distinguished by its versatility in addressing complex programs through a deep understanding of user needs, context, and materiality. The studio is committed to showcasing sensitivity to time, seamlessly integrating new elements with existing environments. We aim to collaborate with like-minded individuals to create projects and products that elevate everyday life—’just Magnifique’.
