Ketki Tidke

Speaking to Nation Next, Ketki said, It feels great to be recognised for a work that’s helping us connect with nature. People don’t have enough awareness about Landscape Designs but if architects come out with their respective work, showcase them, it’ll surely help us beat climate change.

Ketki, who’s currently working on a private resort Vannaj Resort and Spa? at Pench, said, When I work, I ensure I don’t just focus on the aesthetics part but also strive to bring a balance between ecology and my designs.
