The founding partners – Shazia Zainab, Kamakshi Ganesh and Yaamini Gitanjali – all completed their Bachelors of Architecture in Chennai, India. Post graduation, they travelled to different parts of the world to pursue higher education and to gain experience in the practising field before coming back to start CARTWHEEL.

Veena Bagyaraj joined the team as an associate architect in late 2014 and has also taken on the role of the in house artist.

CARTWHEEL has now expanded to studios in Chennai and Bengaluru.
