With over 20 years of experience in architecture and design,
Ar. Sameer Gupte’s journey has been shaped by deep expertise, adaptability, and
a genuine understanding of how people live and interact with their spaces.
Having his father, Ar. Subhash Gupte, in the same field has been a tremendous
influence; his knowledge and insights continue to play a vital role in shaping
the firm's values and approach.
What began as a passion has grown into Scapes, an
architectural firm established in 2004 and dedicated to creating spaces that
are thoughtful, functional, and timeless. The design philosophy at Scapes is
straightforward; they don’t chase trends blindly. Instead, each space is
carefully crafted to reflect the client’s lifestyle, the site context, and
long-term usability.
Throughout the years, Ar. Sameer has had the privilege of
working with a diverse range of clients, building strong relationships founded
on trust and collaboration. Today’s clients are more informed and inspired by
global design trends, but not every idea seen online fits every space. One of
his key responsibilities is to help clients navigate these choices and ensure
the final design is cohesive and practical.
The firm is also witnessing a clear shift in housing trends
toward more practical, flexible homes that emphasise natural light,
ventilation, and overall well-being. These evolving preferences highlight a
growing awareness of how thoughtful design can truly enhance daily living.
Ar. Sameer’s message to homebuyers is simple: focus on what
genuinely suits your lifestyle, trust the design process, and think long-term.
For Scapes, great design goes beyond aesthetics—it’s about creating a space
that functions beautifully and feels just right every day.
