India is a country known for its diversity, but this diversity is not restricted to its population. Different architectural wonders have been erected in this country that gave way to new vision towards architecture. Every one of them adds something extra to the personality of the nation. Today, as modernity and development have come to the forefront, the demand for building infrastructure to support this advancement is also high.
This has led to an increased demand for experienced architects, urban planners, and architectural firms that can blend the essence of India with modernity to create marvelous structures that are functional yet pleasing to the eyes. Muralage, one of the oldest architectural firms in India, established in 1974, brings this vision to life every day with its innovation. Muralage, with nearly 50 years of experience, is a dynamic firm conducting operations in various subdomains of architecture. Project Management, Urban planning and Designing, Interior Architecture and Landscaping are some of the core subdomains to which Muralage caters.
