Manjunatha is an architect for whom the design process is at the very core of his profession. Manjunatha’s philosophy of architecture focuses on processes that aim to physically articulate structures through an expression of design, detailing and construction. It is this philosophy he brought with him as he worked as a senior site engineer for the successful Bank Note Paper Mill (BNPM) project.

Manjunatha presented a paper on the progressive collapse analysis of RCC framed structures at the ACIDIC 2014 conference. He has also been teaching at the WCFA since 2015.
