Messers Hasmukh C. Patel Architects, said the sign, outside a small two 

room office, on the first floor of a house, on Astodia Road, in the heart of the walled 

city of Ahmedabad. The proprietor of the firm, Mr. Hasmukh Patel, had recently returned 

from the U.S. with a Masters degree in architecture from Cornell University, 

and had joined the firm of Architect Atmaram Gajjar. Shortly after he joined the firm, 

Mr.Atmaram Gajjar, who was terminally ill at the time, asked the young man to buy over 

his practice and complete the projects in hand – which he did. Messers Hasmukh C. 

Patel Architects was the name given to the new architectural practice. The first entry in 

the account books of the new firm was dated August 27th 1960, which, from then on, 

was considered the foundation day of the practice. 

On the 27th of August 2010, the firm, which is now known as HCP Design and Project 

Management (HCPDPM) completed 50 years of architectural, city planning, urban design 

and interior design practice based in the city of Ahmedabad. 

The office on Astodia Road had three employees. On hot summer afternoons, after 

lunch, the office boy would splash water on the brick floor, turn the fans on at full 

speed, spread out used sheets of blue-print paper, and the staff of three would stretch 

out for an afternoon siesta. Hasmukhbhai would often times come in, and wake his staff 

up to carry on with the business of the day. Among the first few projects completed by 

M/s Hasmukh C. Patel were commissions that came through the Society of Jesus (the 

St. Xaviers group of schools and colleges) and through the patronage of Shri Kasturbhai 

Lalbhai who saw something of merit in the young Hasmukh Patel. 

03

Early in his career Hasmukhbhai was able, with some financial help, to design and build 

a residence for himself and his young family. This project, in which his wife Bhakti Patel 

was an equal and able partner, was completed in 1968, and is still one of the finest single 

family homes designed by him (the practice has designed and executed more than 

100 homes over the years). At the time, it gave a “leg up” to the fledgling practice by 

drawing in several commissions for single family homes. It was a project that he was 

able to invite potential clients to and one that elucidated clearly the values and design 

principles that M/s HCP stood for. The practice attracted younger talent as it grew in 

strength. Mr. Jayant Gunjaria, who is still with HCPDPM, joined the firm on the 1st of 

June 1969 as a young architecture graduate from M. S. University Baroda. Architect Leo 

Pereira, who heads his own practice in Ahmedabad and teaches at CEPT, joined the firm 

in mid 1968. 

By the late 1960s, western Ahmedabad was expanding rapidly. Ashram Road, on the 

west bank of the river Sabarmati was the new commercial hub. M/s HCP Architects 

had grown steadily. The office on Astodia Road was now rather cramped. The previous 

few years had also demonstrated the volatility and unpredictability of life in the 

old city, and the time seemed right for M/s HCP to move out to the western suburbs. 

Never one to shy away from risk, Hasmukhbhai took the plunge and purchased a 1250 

sq. ft. office space in Bhavani Chambers on Ashram Road, a prime location at the time. 

The office moved there in December 1969. M/s HCP was now a well established practice 

with projects completed and underway not only in Ahmedabad, but all across the 

smaller towns of Gujarat. Hasmukhbhai, never refused a project that was located in too 

remote an area or seemed too insignificant in scope. Homes, hospitals, movie theatres, 

schools, seminaries, apartment buildings or community halls were all tackled with the 

same vigour – a need to be met, a design problem to be solved in the most efficient 

and elegant way possible within a given set of circumstances. This approach to design 

has remained the corner stone of the practice till today. The firm, even in the early days, 

had built a strong reputation for “professionalism” in the fullest sense. Many young 

architects who joined the firm in the 1960s and ‘70s, later went on to establish their 

own practices. 

05

In 1977, M/s. HCP, moved into a larger office space, on the 3rd floor of H K House, 

(a building designed by the firm for one of their clients M/s H. K. Construction) just off 

Ashram Road, and overlooking the river. The 1970s were a period in which Ahmedabad 

witnessed the growth of several real estate development companies promoting speculative 

housing and mixed use projects. A number of these early housing projects were 

designed by M/s HCP. Amongst developers the firm earned a reputation for being able 

to meet the developers’ financial targets without compromising on construction or design 

quality for the end user. Centre Point Apartments, Shyamal Row houses, Chinubhai 

Centre are some iconic projects that set the tone for a lot of development work that 

followed. 

‘Patang’, the revolving restaurant which is a part of the Chinubhai Centre complex, was 

the first free-standing, single column, revolving restaurant in the country and instantly 

became the defining landmark on Ahmedabad’s skyline. The Patang project was also 

the high point of Hasmukhbhai’s career-long collaboration with Structural Engineer Dr. 

Mahendra Mehta, of VMPS (now known as VMS Consultants). Their’s, was a symbiotic 

relationship that brought forth some truly elegant structural designs in projects like the 

renovation of the Eden Gardens stadium Calcutta, the Dena Bank offices Ahmedabad 

and Reserve Bank Ahmedabad. 

Standing in the studio of the new office in H. K. House, that now had a strength of 24 

or more employees, Hasmukhbhai could look out over the river at the chimneys of old 

Ahmedabad where he had started his practice almost twenty years earlier. Architect 

Kamlesh Mehta, Gunvant Vadgama and M. R. Rajiv joined the firm during this period. 

The new office also housed an engineering section to handle project management. This 

was very unusual for a mid-sized architectural practice in the 1970s and still is. Efficient 

project management and the positive effect that it can have on the outcome of a building 

was one aspect of architectural practice that Hasmukhbhai never underestimated 

and which probably led him to propose the setting up of a school of building science 

and technology within CEPT Ahmedabad. Mr. Arvind Patel , Mr. Ashwin Dehliwala and 

Mr Ramesh Desai, all senior Engineers, started their careers with M/s HCP and have 

mentored the present generation of project managers. 

07

In August 1988 the office moved once more. This time, it was to “Paritosh” Usmanpura, 

their present address, and into a space that was designed by them to house the studios, 

offices, conference rooms and workshop of M/s HCP. The design studios occupied the 

ground and first floors of the building, the topmost floor had an apartment that functioned 

as a guest house, the seventh floor was held in reserve for future expansion, 

a part of the basement was used for storage and would later be converted to a wood 

workshop, and the rest of the floors housed the offices of various other firms. M/s HCP 

now had a “home” on the riverbank with enough space to grow. 

In the early 1990’s the structure of the firm changed once again. Hasmukhbhai’s children, 

both architects, returned after post-graduate studies abroad to join the firm and 

then branch out again – each building a different arm of the practice specialising in 

areas of design ranging from furniture design to regional planning! The HCP family of 

companies today, includes HCP Interior Architecture (HCPIA) headed by Architect Canna 

Patel, HCP Design and Project Management and Environmental Planning Collaborative 

(EPC) headed by Architect and Planner Bimal Patel, Geographis headed by Architect 

and Planner Shirley Ballaney, and TDW Furniture headed by Architect Ismet Khambatta. 

HCPDPM, offers architectural design, urban design, urban planning and project management 

services. The strength of the firm at present is a hundred and fifty persons. 

Their portfolio of projects completed includes homes, multi- family housing, institutes, 

schools, college campuses, hospitals, factories, hotels, sports stadia, urban renewal 

projects and townships. Ahmedabad’s Riverfront Development Project is by far the 

most ambitious project undertaken by the firm and the first of its kind in the country. 

HCPDPM has received several national and international design awards including 

the IIA’s Baburao Mhatre Gold Medal for Lifetime Achievement which was awarded to 

Mr. Hasmukh Patel. 

09

EPC is a not-for-profit company that was founded in 1996 with the aim of assisting and 

collaborating with local and state government bodies on city and regional planning 

projects. In addition to several city development plans and town planning schemes, EPC 

has done outstanding work in preparing the development plan to facilitate the reconstruction 

process for Bhuj, Kutch, after the devastating earthquake of 2001. 

Geographis which branched out of EPC in 2003 was set up to initiate the practice of 

and offer services for the preparation of maps and surveys for various purposes, and 

to develop GIS based programs to improve city planning functions. It has worked with 

the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation to develop an on-line system for the approval 

of building plans. 

HCPIA, founded in 2006, is the youngest in the HCP family of companies. The firm offers 

interior design, space planning, architectural design and project management services. 

Completed projects of the firm span the entire spectrum from homes to offices, hotels 

and institutional campuses. Several of their projects have been published and have received 

recognition at a national and international level. In 2007 HCPIA was invited to 

participate in an exhibition on design in India at the IFA Gallery Berlin. 

TDW Furniture, set up in 2004, grew out of a need for well-designed and well-crafted 

furniture for projects that the parent company was handling. It has gone beyond that 

initial idea and has built a reputation for producing high quality solid timber furniture 

which it has supplied to clients in various parts of the country and abroad. 

This monograph celebrates the journey of one design firm led by two generations of the 

same family from 1960 to 2010.

A Modernism For India: The HCP Practice 1960-2010 

Madhavi Desai and Miki Desai 

The year was 1969. We were young, starry-eyed students of architecture, immensely pleased 

at being invited to a party, at the newly built house of our teacher, Hasmukh Patel. The party 

was in the back garden of this avant-garde modernist building. We were, of course, charmed 

by it and also by the graciousness of the host ………….this is our lasting memory of Hasmukhbhai 

Chandulal Patel, whose house still remains one of the best examples of Brutalist modern 

architecture rooted in the Indian cultural context while adhering to international principles of 

modernist design. His practice then bore the name M/s Hasmukh C. Patel Architects (HCP). 

Today, when HCP Design and Project Management Pvt. Ltd. (HCPDPM) of Ahmedabad 

celebrates its golden jubilee, it is also celebrating the grit, talent and vision of Hasmukh 

Patel who began the practice in 1960 with 3 employees! Atmaram Gajjar, whose practice 

was taken over by Hasmukh Patel, had a moderate legacy of good buildings mainly 

in the revivalist style. Hasmukh Patel’s new practice shifted boldly to join the modern 

movement. A purist modern movement took root in Ahmedabad when the Art Deco 

and inklings of International Style were in vogue in Mumbai and Calcutta. Locally, there 

existed, works by Gregson, Batley and King and international style landmarks, such as, 

the ATIRA building by the late Achyut Kanvinde. The patrons of architecture in Ahmedabad, 

however, embraced the modernist idiom unquestioningly. Within this scenario, 

Hasmukh Patel, a Cornell graduate, focused on ‘professionalism and practice’ as the 

core dictum of his architecture. 

13

The decades after 1947 were crucial in the development of Indian architecture. There 

was an intense search for identity and expression as architecture symbolically became 

the physical manifestation of what a young nation represented. On the one hand, revivalism 

was prevalent as a result of the long and painful nationalist struggle the country 

had gone through. On the other hand, there was a strong desire among the political 

leadership, more specifically the first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, to employ architecture 

as a means of expressing the “modernity” of the emerging nation state. The 

design principles of the Modern Movement were widely adopted, as they presented a 

vision of the future based on a functionalist language that was free of colonial associations 

and references to traditions. The invitation to Le Corbusier and others and the 

making of Chandigarh in the 1950s created a tremendous fascination for modernizing 

architectural objects, culture and the profession. Designers and the architectural profession 

underwent a slow metamorphosis with the passing of the decades. The acceptance 

of the Modernist idiom was never complete due to the scepticism and traditional 

mind-set of Indian society. 

In the 60’s, the Indian architectural scene was still ruled by the Public Works Departments 

and engineers in general. Contemporaneously, new practices were few, and 

concentrated mainly in the large cities like Calcutta, Madras, Delhi and Bombay. Many 

English firms were just being handed over to their Indian partners. In Mumbai Gregson, 

Batley and King, G. B. Mahtre, Mistry-Bhedwar and Shapoorjee Pallonjee; in Delhi Master 

Sathe and Kothari and Bhuta Associates, in Chennai L.M. Chitale were already established. 

Ahmedabad had a unique background in the tradition of architecture and in the 

patronage of astute industrialists who had a certain vision for the city. It emerged as the 

“institution building” capital of the country. Gandhian ideals, issues surrounding Indianness 

and colonial baggage were internalized by some architects as India was taking 

longer strides in the direction of modern architecture and urbanism. Gajanan Pathak, 

Atmaram Gajjar and a few others had their architectural practices in the city when they 

14

were joined by Asarpota, Madhukar Thakore and Rajendra Choksi among others. In the 

mid fifties Balkrishna Doshi, Arvind Talati and later in 1960 Hasmukh Patel started their 

practice. The earlier group was building from the 30’s to the early 50’s and had the baggage 

of pre-independence Gandhian ideology but did not have an architectural philosophy 

beyond Swadeshi or the Indian context. By the sixties Modernist philosophy and its 

architectural idiom were in place and the professional proponents ready. 

Within this scenario, when he started working, there was something in Hasmukh Patel’s 

nature and personality that played an important role. Function, client and the context 

were pivotal in his perception of good architecture. His houses from the 60’s till date 

have a certain charm of Brutalism while being perfectly acceptable to traditional Guajarati 

families. The new verandah in the front and at the back responded to the desire 

for a welcoming entrance space and an informal, private get-away space in response to 

the climate. The owners proudly showed off their kitchens and bathrooms on the house 

tours they gave to their guests! From the very beginning, art objects as a necessary adjunct 

to the living environment became a part of the residents’ life style. Art was also a 

priority in his designs for public buildings. 

In his work, one cannot but notice that the buildings that are mere boxes to shelter a 

given activity are turned into architecture by the manipulation of spaces, circulation, 

fenestrations, careful detailing and precise execution. Upon reviewing the entire gamut 

of architecture that HCPDPM has produced, one finds that the following questions are 

asked as a matter of practice and production of architecture. What is it to understand 

the social and the cultural aspects of a people and to rationalize them into architecture? 

Should the social interactions remain traditional or go towards modern transformations? 

Isn’t modernity inevitable and sought after by society? Buildings are different and 

aloof social nodes, so why not make them that way, why not let them have their own 

personality? Why decorate buildings with constructional obstructions, why not detail 

15

the building itself? Processes, atmosphere and the systems that different buildings demand 

are unique to them; can one evolve an architectural language in a selected material 

in response to them? 

The idea of optimal dimensions and massing that reflected the space within, accurately 

located services and utilities, contextual response and careful construction figure foremost 

in the works of HCPDPM. While each project is unique, there is a certain continuity 

visible in the adherence to principles that guide the modernist architecture of this 

firm. This practice has developed an architectural character and a certain hallmark. In the 

process, the modernist dictum has never been doubted. 

Hasmukh Patel’s small house (1968) at one end and the Sabarmati River Front Project 

(2010) at the other end define the latitude and the range of this practice. His house is one 

of the sharpest examples of modern Indian living. The framed structure in exposed R.C.C., 

the clever use of cantilevers, infill walls in exposed brick, and polished Kotah stone flooring 

delineate the idea beautifully. The living area, staircase, dining space and the upper 

level bridge connecting the bedrooms are contained in a double height space. It is flanked 

by a long back verandah and the entrance verandah on the long side and the kitchen and 

the guest bedroom on the short side. The public spaces can be converted into a free flowing 

singular large space or they can be visually separated by glass doors. The entrance 

space and the verandah have the bedrooms above them. In many of his later designs 

for private residences one can sense the resonance of this leitmotif. In the house of his 

daughter Canna Patel (2004), this idea of the sixties can be seen in its latest variation. 

It is of interest that in the early sixties, architects like Balkrishna Doshi, and Achyut Kanvinde 

not only built their own homes, but also designed several residences for private 

clients. Each one, including Charles Correa, left a flavour of their modernist beliefs in their 

works. Houses designed by them during the sixties and seventies, especially in Ahmedabad 

demonstrate a professional comradeship through their belief in Modernism. 

16

It was during this period, that Balkrishsna Doshi, along with his comrades, proposed 

the idea of a ‘new’ and Modern School of Architecture and established one in 1962. 

Ahmedabad’s reputation as the modernist architectural capital of India, was further reinforced 

by the works of Le Corbusier and Louis Kahn. 

Amongst the numerous buildings designed by Hasmukh Patel, Newman Hall for the Society 

of Jesus, (1965) is a fine example where the South facing main façade and the 

North facing back façade are different while the courtyard is framed by corridors with 

the chapel at one end. A peaceful seminary atmosphere, in the modern idiom, with exposed 

brickwork, defines the ambiance of the project. In the eighties, there was a noteworthy 

project designed by Hasmukh Patel’s son architect Bimal Patel who was still a 

graduate student at UC Berkeley. The architecture of the Entrepreneurship Development 

Institute, Ahmedabad was a response to the postmodern movement; however, some of 

the modernist ideas of expression of materials and pronounced architectural elements 

were clear in this work which was well-received and remains a project to be reckoned 

with. The project won the Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 1992. 

If 1947 was a historic moment for India, 1991 was also a turning point as the country 

resolutely moved away from the closed, socialist economic approach, embracing open 

and competitive economic policies. This was also the time when Dr. Bimal Patel returned 

from the USA to join M/S HCP Architects, introducing gradual shifts and expansion in 

the practice to meet the new challenges of a fast globalizing and aspirational society. 

As India opened up to the international world, real estate development emerged as the 

primary means of creating the built environment in the urban areas, a reality that demanded 

increased levels of performance, work processes and professionalism. The practice 

now called for a different approach, a shift from an individualist platform to a more 

collaborative and competitive one. Inventiveness and innovativeness became the key 

words for the HCP practice, while attempting to hold on to the best of the past. 

It was a new context in architecture and planning that had to be constantly negotiated. 

17

Under Bimal Patel’s leadership, the arena of HCP’s role was extended to improving cities, 

urban design projects and project management. Environmental Planning Collaborative 

(EPC) was set up as an independent wing of HCP to look at unresolved urban 

design and planning issues and engage with the real problems of society. The practice 

has forged new design methods, planning methodologies and policies to work in coordination 

with local government and planning departments. Development plans, which 

were the responsibility of the government for 50 years were handled by this private 

firm for the first time. The re-development of CG road (1996) was the first urban design 

project by EPC, which also initiated the idea of “designed streets”. Design management, 

supervision and partnership with the city and the state governments became the crucial 

amalgam in this project. The Ahmedabad city development plans were an exercise in 

which a multitude of city planning departments, the state government and the people 

got involved. The gap between design decisions and policy level decisions was bridged. 

Simultaneously, the practice was also making strides and winning awards in the field of 

architecture. In 1998 Bimal Patel designed the Ahmedabad Management Association 

(AMA), which was based on a program for a financially self supportive building of public 

concern. In it, the rigor of the module, circulation as a modifier of external and internal 

form, attention to materials, careful detailing and simplicity play a pivotal role. Once 

again, if it is a box to house certain activities, why not treat it as that while crafting it 

well? The new campus for IIMA, is another important project where, there is a thematic 

shift in the use of materials as well as a careful continuation of architectural nuances of 

Louis Kahn’s original work. 

The Sabarmati River Front Development project by EPC has been the most recent megaproject. 

It is the first such effort in India, aiming at modifying the ‘large village’ like image 

of the city. The success or failure of this project will be measured in the decades to 

come. The project is a bold move which speaks of behavioural and attitudinal change in 

18

the mind-set of the people. There were many apprehensions: Is it going to be people 

friendly? Is not the river width too narrow? Will it become a new centre of recreation 

and commerce or a promenade? Will it yield the results it is predicting? What will 

happen to the people and small time businesses that would be displaced? Thus it is 

albeit controversial and futuristic on the same token. Once again, the practice and the 

profession are brought clearly into focus. Modernism as a paradigm and a tool to bring 

unprecedented change is operative here. Apart from all else it is asserting the fact that 

architecture is a political act and that the profession and professionals must engage 

themselves in this process. It is here that what was once within the realm of statutory 

city planning is brought into the fold of private practice. 

HCPDPM is inventive in other ways. It attracts younger talent constantly. There is an 

agenda in place where the technical skills and capabilities of trainees and fresh graduates 

are enriched in a systematic manner. Here the graphic and presentation experience 

of the employee is enriched by bold end products at various stages of the project. A few 

selected young designers are often sent abroad for better exposure and higher education 

after a commitment to HCP. There is also policy level research and writing undertaken 

on urban issues with an effort at making a national impact. 

It has been fifty years since the practice started, many projects have been designed and 

many more are yet to come. It has been an exemplary and inspirational journey. The 

practice has evolved along with the transforming economic and social Indian context. 

If one were to take a performance audit of the firm and their architecture and planning 

initiatives; the variety and scale of their projects, presents a wide latitude, the quality of 

their buildings has created lasting value, their impact on the urban landscape has been 

enormous, and the user acceptance has been remarkable. HCPDPM has set a professional 

benchmark for the country and created a legacy for the next generation.
