In this episode, we sit down with Ruturaj Parikh & Maanasi Hattangadi, Founders of Matter, an architecture, design & publishing studio housed in the village of Sangolda. 

Matter's past projects in Goa range from residential & commercial architecture and design services to their self-initiated content & curatorial works, including both digital & print publications - Thinkmatter.in & [IN]SIDE. Not to mention they are also the chief curators of FRAME, an independent Biennial Conclave and 3 day event centred around the pedagogy and practise of contemporary architecture in India. 

However as mentioned, Matter's work is incredibly visual and truly needs to be seen to be experienced. So we've compiled photos of many of our favourite projects discussed here in our corresponding post: Conversations in Architecture: exploring the work of Goa based Studio Matter

You can learn more about their work at studiomatter.in or by following Matter on Instagram @_matter & @thinkmatter on Facebook.

We should also mention that the beautifully designed Kokum House, built in collaboration with Zowa Architects (Sri Lanka), is also available for holiday rentals via Airbnb, Vista Rooms & Booking.com.
