About Interior Design Consultation
No-Nonsense Design Help
I know what it’s like—ghar banana hai, but ideas and confusion are both unlimited. Interior design isn’t just about fancy looks. It’s about making smart, practical choices that work for years, especially in Indian homes. I cut through the show-shaa and tell you straight what’s worth your money and what’s going to be a headache later.
What You Get With Me
- Bring your ideas, Pinterest saves, contractor ka estimate, and all your doubts.
- I’ll tell you honestly if that walk-in wardrobe is possible in your tiny bedroom, or if your L-shaped sofa is a good fit.
- I spot problems before you waste money on them.
- You’ll leave with a clear plan, not more confusion.
Where to Save, Where to Invest
- I show you how to get a premium look without overspending. Big false ceilings? Not always needed. Modern lights, neat molding, and smart surface finishes go a long way.
- For flooring, I recommend large-format tiles (like 4x8 ft) or SPC flooring—looks classy, costs less.
- Want wood panel vibes? PVC panels or wall molding can do the trick, and your wallet will thank you.
Material & Fixture Talk
- Modular kitchen consultation is a must. I’ll only suggest BWP plywood for wet areas. No MDF drama.
- Choosing between laminate or acrylic for wardrobes? I’ll break it down, no bias.
- Windows? UPVC or System Aluminium beats wooden ones for most Indian homes.
- Lighting layout advice is key—no more working in shadows.
Mere saath, you’ll get real, practical solutions that suit your life and budget. Ghar banana hai, dimaag lagao.

My Story
I'm an architect and design educator, but honestly, I just help people make homes that feel like theirs. 'Aazadi chahiye mujhe... meri he daarti hui soch se'—that’s me breaking out of my own fears. I want you to feel that same freedom at home. Log kehte hain achha design sirf paisa walon ke liye hai—nonsense! I’ll show you how to get that luxury vibe without wasting money. My travels taught me, design is about being real and practical. No bandishein, only homes that work for you.
