Creative Group is a globally recognized architectural and design consultancy firm headquartered in New Delhi, India, with a legacy spanning over 50 years. Founded in 1973 by Prof. Charanjit S. Shah, the firm has consistently delivered award-winning projects across diverse sectors such as infrastructure, aviation, real estate, institutional, and urban planning.

Rooted in innovation and sustainability, the firm’s approach merges ecology, technology, and functionality. By adopting a design methodology that minimizes waste and maximizes performance throughout a building’s lifecycle, Creative Group pioneers intelligent, self-sustainable structures. The firm embraces the ethos that architecture is a dynamic dialogue between the built environment and its surroundings—a philosophy brought to life in its projects like the Chennai International Airport, Raipur Airport, Kartarpur Landport Terminal, and net-zero master plans for cities and townships.
Creative Group’s impact is not limited to Indian boundaries, with projects extending to international collaborations in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The firm’s portfolio includes iconic works such as the Times Square Mall in Naya Raipur, IIT Jodhpur, and the GEMS School in Kochi. Recent endeavors include retail developments at metro stations, memorials in Mumbai, and state-of-the-art railway stations in Naya Raipur.
Under the visionary leadership of Prof. Shah and the innovative contributions of Ar. Gurpreet Shah and Mr. Prabhpreet Shah, the firm has transformed into a comprehensive one-stop solution, offering services ranging from architecture and urban planning to project management and financial advisory. Their commitment to redefining India’s architectural landscape is evident in their mission to make the country a hub of avant-garde design.
With offices in key cities like Delhi, Chennai, Kochi, Ahmedabad, and international presences in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Creative Group continues to push the boundaries of what architecture can achieve, creating designs that not only inspire but also connect deeply with the people and the environment they serve.
As Prof. Shah puts it, “What if architecture could be as experimental as a chef? What if a building became a character—a living organism that transforms its environment?” Guided by this vision, Creative Group remains at the forefront of innovation, shaping the future of architecture and design.
