Design Manuscripts is an online media platform committed to making architecture accessible and understandable to everyone.
Mission
To decode architecture, to open it up, and to make it legible, relatable, and engaging for all.
Our Story
Architecture, at its core, carries layers of meaning – stories, contexts, and intentions woven into space. But more often than not, these layers are invisible to the everyday eye. People look at a building and say, “Why all this effort? It’s just a building!”
When design isn’t understood, it’s easily dismissed. How often have you heard a client say, “It’s all just wood – plywood, teak, same thing right? Just give me teak for the price of ply!” Frustrating, isn’t it?
Out of that very frustration – and a deep curiosity – Design Manuscripts was born. Not just as a platform, but as a mission: to decode architecture, to open it up, and to make it legible, relatable, and engaging for all.
Because when people understand design, they value it. And that changes everything.
