The Capsule
ShapeShift Architects is a boutique architecture and interior design practice based in Auckland, New Zealand, founded by Shane Tregidga and Mayank Thammalla. Shane brings a builder's precision and real-world sensibility, shaped by years on site and refined through experience at leading New Zealand practices. Mayank brings a fine arts background and a conceptual, research-driven approach, honed across acclaimed studios in Aotearoa and the UK. Together, they treat every project as a point of inquiry — reinterpreting each site's given conditions into outcomes that are clear, purposeful, and enduring.

Shifting Perceptions
Madhav Agarwal and Nitya Goinka are second-year architecture students with a shared interest in architectural design, contextual thinking, and the relationship between people, place, materiality, and the built environment. Their approach to architecture combines conceptual exploration with practical resolution, with a focus on creating
context-responsive and socially meaningful spaces. Through academic projects, design competitions, research, architectural photography, 3D modelling, and visualization, they seek to explore architecture as a medium for community, interaction, and environmental responsiveness, while continually broadening their understanding of design beyond the studio.

Into The Depth
STILO ARCHITECTS is a collective of young visionaries exploring the possibilities of architecture through the interplay of emotion, culture, and place. Comprising Franco Salvador Jimenez, Angelica Callao, Ed Gabriel Romero, and Jomar Alvior, the collective approaches architecture as a discipline deeply connected to human experience and cultural identity.
Anchored in the belief that architecture is the sum of emotions, STILO ARCHITECTS seeks to create spaces that are not only responsive to their context but also deeply rooted in the cultural narratives that define them. Through contemporary interpretation, the collective advocates for the continuity of Filipino architectural identity, allowing tradition to evolve rather than dissolve.
For STILO ARCHITECTS, architecture is not merely the making of form. It is a means of preserving memory, expressing culture, and creating places that resonate meaningfully with people.
