Thirty years of practice. One consistent conviction.

Sushil Wadhwa is an architect from the School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi, who began his professional career in 1995. Over thirty years he has built deep specialisation in healthcare environments — in particular, the design of IVF and fertility centres across India and internationally.

Having designed more than 50 IVF centres from start to finish — working with clients including Nova IVI, ART Fertility, Ferty9, Baby Science, IVI Middle East, and Apollo Spectra — Sushil brings an understanding of the sector that goes far beyond architecture alone. He has worked with the best doctors, managers, operators, and suppliers in the IVF industry, learning the smallest technical requirements alongside the big-picture planning.

"The domain of IVF centre design — patient safety, quality, efficiency, adaptability, and the human experience — is where our core expertise lives. Strong foundations here help us emphasise what matters most."

a.ex atelier brings architecture, interior design, and construction under one roof — so that what is imagined is precisely what gets built.

What the name means.

a — Adapt
Listen first.

Every project begins with honest engagement — the site, the brief, the human beings who will inhabit the space. We adapt to what is real before we respond.

e — Evolve
Think deeper.

Design is not a single decision. We iterate, question, and let a better idea replace a good one. The process is never finished until it is right.

x — Expand
Go further.

We push every brief beyond its edges — not to complicate, but to find what becomes possible when you refuse to stop at the obvious answer.

How we work.

Design intelligence first

Everything begins with a question, not a drawing. We engage with the problem deeply before we reach for a solution — because the right question always produces a better answer.

Evidence, not instinct alone

In healthcare design, opinion is not enough. We design with reference to how light, material, and spatial sequence affect patient outcomes — because good design in a clinic is care.

End to end, under one roof

Architecture, interiors, and construction together means no gap between intent and execution. The hand that draws the line also oversees where it lands.

Built on long relationships

Our most meaningful work has come from clients who returned — because the first project built trust, and the second built something better.

Every project begins with a conversation.
