Viraj Chatterjee
Founder & Design Principal

Viraj is the founder and Design Principal of ONE Landscape – a boutique design studio that specializes in high-end contemporary landscape architecture, urban design, public art and environmental planning in China, Southeast Asia, India and Middle East with head office in Hong Kong. Prior to establishing his own award winning design firm, Viraj was the Design Principal and global head of STRATA, RMJM’s landscape design group with offices in Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and London.
ONE’s design philosophy of ‘land-culture’ – a word coined by Viraj, is to draw inspirations from the culture and texture of the origin of site and develop into one ‘big idea’ that transpires into physical spaces and tangible design elements experienced by visitors and users. This ‘big idea’ becomes the source of series of further ideas that brings unique identity to the project.
Viraj read architecture and then fascinated by the interface between buildings and their surroundings read landscape architecture. These two outlooks on the built environment give him the ability to work as a holistic designer on a multi-disciplined team and offer a new dimension to design thinking and execution.
Viraj is keen to promote young design talent and sponsored Abandon Chair project in Hong Kong Shenzhen Biannual 2009/2010. He is also linked with Hong Kong University as an adjunct professor of Landscape Architecture. Prior to moving to Hong Kong Viraj was part time Design Studio Tutor at the Edinburgh College of Art, UK. He is a Chartered Member of Landscape Institute, UK and an International Associate of American Institute of Architects.
