Transforming Waste into Architecture

In the bustling metropolis of Hyderabad, architect Shridhar Mamidalaa is revolutionizing the architectural landscape through his innovative integration of technology and sustainability. With a foundation in traditional artistry and a formal education in architecture, Shridhar’s path has been guided by a relentless commitment to creativity and environmental stewardship.

Shridhar’s passion for computational design ignited over a decade ago, as he aimed to break free from traditional architectural constraints. Despite encountering limitations in resources and technology, he faced the challenges of this evolving field with dedication and enthusiasm. His goal was unequivocal: to craft stylish, world-class architectural designs that also uphold principles of sustainability and environmental responsibility.

Under Shridhar’s guidance, his design firm has celebrated numerous accomplishments in sustainable architecture. Most notably, they completed India’s first fully 3D-printed interiors, establishing a pioneering standard within the industry. Additionally, the firm has introduced a groundbreaking line of 3D-printed furniture, seamlessly merging innovative technology with functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Shridhar’s evolution from having no access to computer technology to becoming a leading figure in computational design serves as an inspiring narrative for aspiring architects and designers. He emphasizes the importance of taking incremental steps and remaining resilient in the face of career challenges. His mantra, “Sustainability has never been so stylish,” encapsulates his commitment to harmoniously blending high-quality design with environmental consciousness.

Specializing in large-scale robotic 3D printing and Fused Granular Fabrication (FGF) technology, Shridhar’s firm utilizes an impressive 80% recycled plastic in its projects. By incorporating waste materials, such as coffee grounds and grain bran, the team is at the forefront of advancing sustainable practices within architecture. This method not only curtails waste generation but also minimizes the depletion of natural resources, promoting an eco-conscious approach to design.

Looking to the future, Shridhar aims to further enhance the sustainability of his projects while raising awareness about genuine environmental responsibility. He envisions reaching a wider audience and inspiring a greater number of individuals to adopt sustainable practices in their own lives and professions.
