“N M P DESIGN” is a creative team of Landscape Design & Urban Planning Professionals. It was founded in 1994. It specializes in delivering outstanding Designs against strict time deadlines. The design philosophy of the firm aims to create designs which respond positively to the architecture in terms of the style, functions, materials & finishes. The focus of the design exercise is to create a setting, which would enhance the quality of environment by suitably addressing the issues of movement, view lines, aesthetics & other elements of macro & micro-climate. N M P DESIGN has vast experience in collaborating with a variety of eminent co-professionals & dealing with very diverse projects each with its own constraints of climate, budget, soil, programme & client requirement etc. N M P DESIGN aims to create an environment which can offer an enjoyable & memorable experience to the user & the visitor and in which the human & the botanical elements co-exist in an interactive relationship with the structured & the built environment. N M P DESIGN believes that outstanding Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intent, sincere effort, intelligent direction & skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives. At N M P DESIGN great emphasis is laid on the construction details which impart cohesiveness to the Landscapes. The economic realities of the initial cost & ongoing maintenance are suitably addressed in the design stage. An intense interaction between the client, the designer & the user is considered important to achieve a good end product. In tune with this age of super specialization both the founder members of the team have decided to focus their energy & concentrate their efforts solely in the field of Landscape Architecture. There exists a commitment to this purpose & the educational background & professional work experience of both the members demonstrates their dedication to this philosophy.
