Detail Biodata B Arch : BKPS College of Architecture, Pune, University of Pune.1994

Detail Biodata M. Arch. : Landscape Architecture, School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi, 1997

Detail Biodata A disciplined exercise regime is what Avadhoot likes to put up first on his introduction and takes pride in describing himself as a fitness enthusiast. With 52 plus Sinhagad Climbs in a calender year and a successful completion of #HDoR Challenge (100Days of Running), a Marathon is the next on horizon and completing Kili-Combo is the dream.

Detail Biodata Avadhoot also describes himself as an 'amatuer kitchen scribe' and loves cooking Biryani for family and friends. A family man, a dog lover, he spends all the free time with Zoyaa, pet labrador, training and being with her, learning unconditional affection from her. With about 25 years of founding 'Landart Designs' a Landscape Design Consultancy Practise alongwith life partner and Landscape Architect Anjali, he likes to take efforts on young individuals in the firm, to help them deal situations at work independently with their own gut feelings. He prefers detailed talks with them about 'whats' and 'whys' of the decision making process, helping them develop 'hows' of their own.
