About Commercial & Retail Design
Why I Do What I Do
Design isn’t just about looks - it’s about how a place feels when you walk in. I believe every shop or office should feel like an extension of your brand, not just a room with furniture. I bring in that sense of “quiet luxury” but don’t worry, it’s not all about fancy stuff - it’s about spaces that are inviting and practical.
How I Approach Commercial Spaces
I craft environments that help people work better or shop happier, keeping things simple but making sure every detail reflects your story.
- For offices, I blend modern office interiors with smart layouts and touches that bring your brand’s personality into every part of the workspace.
- If you’ve got a boutique or a store, I design the boutique store layout so it feels unique, pulls customers in, and makes your products look their best.
The Look and Feel
My style leans minimalist, but I don’t shy away from mixing things up for warmth and character. Expect a calm palette - whites, greys, a bit of color here and there. I like using materials like oakwood, marble, and boucle fabric, with lighting that sets the mood just right.
Working Together
Designing your space is a team effort. I’ll work with you at every step, combining your ideas with my creative spin. If you want branded workspace design that feels honest and true to your vision, I’m here for it.

My Story
Sometimes I still pinch myself thinking about making it to iGen's Top 50 under 40! But, really, it’s not just me. Our studio is like a big, buzzing family - clients, team, even the chai-wala (tea guy) who keeps us going. Every project is a wild ride, some days crazy, some days magic. What keeps me hooked? That moment when a space finally feels right for someone. Can’t wait for what’s next.
My Work
Spaces We Design - Residential, commercial, and retail - we tailor each space so it reflects you, not just trends.
Quiet Luxury Interiors - Our thing is muted palette design, clean lines, and textures that whisper, not shout.
Collaborative Architecture Process - We love debates, jokes, and convincing you when we know it’ll work. It’s always a team effort.
Obsessed With Details - From the right tile to perfect lighting, every inch gets our full attention. That’s where the magic happens.
