Abhishek Ray, Principal Architect at Matrika Design Collaborative has a degree in architecture and a deep interest in design and technology. He has pursued a research based approach to design which is steeped in processes such as domain research, contextual design principles, architectural sketch concepts, detail development and visualization.

Abhishek spent his childhood growing up in a family of engineers, doctors and artists across multiple cities in India. He owes his multidisciplinary approach to design to the myriad learning experiences that he gained from his formative years as an avid sketcher capturing objects as diverse as his favorite world war aircrafts to the architectural marvels of his city.

As a young design professional Abhishek travelled the world, documented his visits through his photographs and taught design at a school of architecture in Mumbai before starting Matrika Design Collaborative in 2004.

Our work has been experimental, innovative and strongly grounded in research. Each of our projects offers new challenges in unexplored domains of design and experience. Ever since its conception as a design studio Matrika has shown the ability to render design services for a multitude of project challenges.
