“ARKANCE became an extension of our Studio Symbiosis— seamlessly integrating technology into our design DNA.”
— Amit Gupta & Britta Knobel Gupta

Autodesk selected Studio Symbiosis for its 2025 Customer Success Story, with ARKANCE—Autodesk’s Platinum Partner—conducting an in-depth interview reflecting on the studio’s journey and design approach.

The discussion was centered on two recently completed projects: Hilton Kathmandu, a five-star hospitality development project, and Verto, a multi-directional air purification tower. Together, these projects demonstrate the studio’s commitment to performance-driven design while maintaining a clear and uncompromising design ideology.

Technologies such as BIM have played a critical role in enabling this approach, supporting the integration of technology, environment, materiality, and design as a unified framework. This convergence continues to shape the studio’s architectural thinking and project delivery. Studio Symbiosis has been supported by ARKANCE through structured BIM training and an ongoing support system, allowing for a seamless adoption of advanced digital workflows.
