Architects and Interior Designers in Faridabad (2026): 7 Studios on MOA

Updated 17 Oct 2026: this list is built from the public profiles on Member of Architecture on that date. Details such as services and completed-project counts are supplied by each studio. Check the profile, and ask for references, before you appoint anyone.

There are 7 design practices in Faridabad listed on Member of Architecture: 4 architecture studios and 3 interior design studios. 5 of them have had their Council of Architecture registration verified, and 1 has published finished work on MOA that you can look at before making contact. This page lists every one, with what they do and how to reach them directly.

How this list was put together

Worth being straight about the basis, because many "top architects" lists are advertising in disguise. This is not a ranking of the best architects in Faridabad: nobody can credibly produce that. It is every practice on MOA that works in the city, ordered by the work they have published on MOA and then by the number of completed projects they report.

No paid placements. Nobody paid to appear here, and MOA takes no commission on any project that follows.
Completed-project counts are self-reported by each studio and cover their whole career, not only the work shown on MOA.
COA verification means MOA has checked the architect's registration with the Council of Architecture. Only a registered architect may use the title "architect" in India, under the Architects Act, 1972.

Building rules in Faridabad: MCF, FMDA, HSVP and DTCP

Before you brief anyone, work out which authority your plot answers to. Under a Haryana gazette notification of 3 September 2020, the Faridabad Metropolitan Area covers the whole area of the Municipal Corporation, Faridabad (MCF), the controlled areas of the Faridabad Final Development Plan 2031 and the Mangar draft development plan and the abadi of listed villages. The Faridabad Metropolitan Development Authority (FMDA) plans for that whole area, but who sanctions your building plan depends on how your land was developed:

Inside MCF limits. The state's Department of Urban Local Bodies runs a single Online Building Plan Approval System (OBPAS) for urban local bodies, which it says has been operational since 8 May 2026. An empanelled architect uploads AutoCAD drawings, a junior engineer and a sub-divisional engineer review them, and the executive officer or commissioner gives final approval as a digitally signed permission. The department's building plan page lists the forms, documents and NOCs a site may need.
HSVP sectors. If your plot was allotted by Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP, formerly HUDA), plans go through HSVP's own OBPAS portal. You choose an architect from HSVP's empanelled list, the architect files the drawings, and the Estate Officer gives final approval.
DTCP licensed colonies. Private plotted colonies and group housing are licensed by the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP). Its circle-wise list shows 19 licensed residential plotted colonies and 58 group housing colonies in Faridabad town. DTCP's self-certification checklist asks for the zoning plan and boundary verified by the colonizer and a certificate that services are working, so ask your developer for these early.
FMDA controlled areas. Where FMDA has granted change of land use (CLU) in the controlled area, you apply on FMDA's building plan service. Its user manual says FMDA exercises the powers of the Director, Town and Country Planning for these cases.

All of them work to one rulebook, the Haryana Building Code, 2017, which DTCP publishes as a consolidated copy with amendments up to 13 August 2026. A few points from it that shape how you hire:

You must appoint an architect or engineer. Code 2.1(2) requires every applicant to appoint an Architect or Engineer to draw up the plans and supervise construction. Either can supervise a residential or commercial building up to 15 m (G+3, including stilt); above that, both must. The code defines an Architect as a person registered with the Council of Architecture under the Architects Act, 1972, and the owner, architect and engineer all sign the application digitally.
Most houses are self-certified. Since an amendment of 8 December 2025, Code 5.1 puts residential plots of all sizes up to 16.5 m tall in the Low Risk category. These are filed under self-certification (Code 2.2), and you may start building as soon as the application and documents are submitted. The authority can still inspect at any stage. Violations are rectified at the owner's risk and cost, a defaulting architect can be referred to the Council of Architecture and blacklisted, and the code says no plea of the owner will be heard for a default by the architect they engaged. Choose your architect with that in mind.
Fees and time limits. The scrutiny fee is ₹10 per sq m of covered area (Code 2.1(1)(x)). For plans that need a decision, Code 4.5 gives the authority 20 days from a complete submission; a compliant plan with all fees paid is deemed sanctioned if no order is passed in that time. Plots of 500 sq m and above in the NCR must also show registration on the dust portal (Code 2.1(1)(xi), inserted in May 2025).
Validity. A sanction is valid for two years for a building under 15 m and five years for one of 15 m or more (Code 4.3). You can revalidate before it lapses for ₹10 per sq m of the covered area still to be built (Code 4.4).

Three of the seven studios above list plan approvals or liaison work among their services, so ask early whether filing is in the scope you are paying for. Haryana amends the building code often, and this summary covers only the points above. Ask your architect to check the current rules for your plot, especially FAR, setbacks, height and parking.

Four questions worth asking before you appoint anyone

Most homeowners ask about fees first and regret it. These tell you more:

Have you built on a plot like mine, under the same authority? Approval processes differ by authority and zone. Someone who has filed with yours recently saves you months.
What is included, and where does your scope end? Concept drawings, construction drawings, approvals, liaison work and site supervision are often priced separately. Get the boundary in writing.
Who runs my project day to day? At a small studio it is the principal. At a larger one it may not be. That is fine, but you should know before you sign.
Can I speak to a client from two years ago? Recent clients are still in the honeymoon period. Older ones can tell you how the building aged and how overruns were handled.

For a longer checklist, see 15 questions to ask before hiring an architect or interior designer.

How fees usually work

Three models cover most of the Indian market: a percentage of project cost, a rate per square foot, or a fixed fee for a defined scope. Percentage fees are common on larger residential work, and per-square-foot pricing is more usual for apartment interiors and renovations. Ask which model a studio uses before discussing numbers, because the same total looks very different under each. Our guide to architect and interior designer fees goes into more detail, and the Delhi NCR construction cost breakdown helps you set a realistic budget for the build itself.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a registered architect to build in Faridabad?

You need a registered professional, though not necessarily an architect. The Haryana Building Code requires every applicant to appoint an Architect or Engineer to prepare the plans and supervise the work, and buildings over 15 m need both. Under the self-certification route used for most residential plots, the architect certifies that the plans comply, so check their Council of Architecture registration before you sign. Interior work inside an existing flat usually does not need a permission, but anything affecting structure, plumbing stacks or the facade generally does, and housing societies have their own rules. Confirm with MCF, HSVP, DTCP or FMDA, whichever governs your plot, before you begin.

How long does a residential project take?

Design and drawings typically take two to four months, approvals vary by authority and by how complete the file is, and construction of a full house usually takes a year or more. Apartment interiors are faster, commonly three to five months from design to handover.

Does MOA charge for introductions?

No. Enquiries go straight to the studio, with no commission on either side.

How do I check an architect's registration?

Look for COA verification on their MOA profile, or confirm their registration with the Council of Architecture. Our COA guide explains how.

Browse every practice on Member of Architecture, look at their published work and message studios directly. If you practise in Faridabad and are not listed here, create a profile. It is free and takes a few minutes.
