Inspired by a love for art and cartooning since his childhood, Bhagwagar ventured into architecture fulfilling his father’s ambition embracing the field with imagination and determination. A creative person, his adeptness in drawing and visualisation led him to start a side business creating perspective views, earning both experience and pocket money during his college days.

For Bhagwagar the most creative part of architectural design is the human interface of space and context. “Spaces are meant to be used by humans, not robots”, he emphasises. His creative process involves an amalgamation of functionality and technology such that technology amplifies space's human and experiential quality. While designing offices and technical workspaces he envisages them to the aspirations and identity of their users. This interplay between humanity and technology drives dynamic, programmable spaces that resonate deeply with their occupants.

‘The Moira Riviera Boutique Hotel’ in Goa co-owned and co-founded by AVA in Goa exemplifies his vision of ‘Hospitality Architecture’. Signed up by the ‘Responsible Luxury’ brand of ITC, this hotel’s design is a fusion of Portuguese and Mediterranean styles built using local Goan materials, creating a stunning structure within a canopy of trees. The understated art and architecture reflect simplicity and authenticity making it a true blue retreat architecture.

In Bhagwagar’s view, AI (Artificial Intelligence) will always be second to Human Intelligence. AI can enhance efficiency and innovation but the need for human improvisation and intuition will never fade away. He asserts, “Human intervention and disruption must not be discounted; technology has and will always be an aid.”

Bhagwagar believes that while technology can aid and inspire, architecture must be rooted in human experience, environmental adaptability, and cultural relevance. He implores young and upcoming architects and designers not to become overly reliant on technology and inhibit one’s innate and inherent qualities.
