A LEGACY SHAPED BY LAND AND VALUES

Every story has a beginning. The origins of Earthitects lie in the House of Ramapuram, a family that traces its roots to the town of Pala in Kottayam, Kerala. Over generations, the family lived through significant global and national events, including the World Wars and India’s freedom struggle, and went on to establish itself in plantations and luxury hospitality, guided throughout by strong values of integrity, patriotism, and responsibility. Earthitects was formed as the architectural and creative arm of this legacy. Led by Mr George Ramapuram, Managing Director of Earthitects, the firm has ideated, designed, and built some of the world’s most acclaimed luxury resorts. These projects are recognised globally for their sensitive approach to site, craftsmanship, and their seamless relationship with the natural environment.

Drawing from decades of experience in designing immersive hospitality environments, Earthitects has expanded its work beyond resorts into new forms of living. This includes Earthitects Private Residences, where the same design rigour is applied to thoughtfully planned Legacy second homes, and Earthitects Holiday Experiences, which brings Earthitects’ approach to design, service, and setting into curated stay experiences. Across all its work, Earthitects remains committed to creating spaces that are authentic, enduring, and deeply connected to their surroundings, shaped by history, refined through experience, and rooted in values that have guided the house of Ramapuram for years.
