About Residential Architecture & Interior Design
Belief & Philosophy
Your home is your story, and I want the design to feel deeply personal. I’m all about spaces that don’t just look nice, but actually feel like you belong there. Calm, practical, and tailored - that’s my vibe.
How I Design
- Essential minimalism is my go-to. I focus on what truly matters to you, so your space feels uncluttered but lived-in.
- Quiet and timeless, not flashy or trendy. I mix materials, colours, and textures for a look that lasts.
- Homes need to work for real life - low-maintenance, functional, child-friendly. Pretty is useless if it’s not practical.
Styles I Love
You’ll see a mix in my work:
- Modern Indian & South Indian - red oxide floors, carved wood, Chettinad touches mixed with modern lines.
- Japandi & Wabi-Sabi - natural material interiors, earthy palettes, soft edges for a calm vibe.
- Sometimes it’s eclectic or colonial-inspired, with vintage-inspired furniture, grand woods, and bold details.
What I Offer
From drawing board to the last cushion:
- Full home design and renovation - whole package, start to finish.
- Smart space planning - rethinking layouts, breaking walls, adding clever partitions.
- Custom furniture and cabinetry - wardrobes with wallpaper, fun handles, benches you won’t find anywhere else.
- Material and colour selection - warm woods, brass, lime-wash, colour pops.
The Details
It’s the little things. I’ll hunt for antique doors, work with local artisans, and blend your family memories into the space. Maybe it’s a saree framed as art, or a Channapatna pillar. These touches make it yours.
The Journey
Honestly, this work is slow and sometimes messy. You’ll hear me say “Please Bhaiya” a lot on site. I stick to my values, and that’s what matters most. In the end, it’s about your happiness in your new home.

My Story
Five years back, House of Ruya started with just me, big dreams, and zero business background. Now we’re eight women strong, building spaces with soul. There've been late nights, chai spills, and patti (hair ties) everywhere, but every project feels personal. Like framing a client’s amma’s (mother’s) wedding saree for their wall – that’s the kind of magic we love. Grateful for all the trust. We’ll always try to bring your dreams home.
My Work
Bespoke Architecture & Interior Design - We design homes and spaces with a mix of classical contemporary and understated luxury, featured in leading design magazines.
Minimal Indian Interiors - Our look blends neutral palettes with earthy Indian colours, Chettinad furniture, Kalamkari wall art and vintage touches.
Hands-on Creative Process - We sketch, model in 3D, and work with traditional artisans—sometimes those whose families carved Madurai temple stones.
Spaces That Feel Like You - Your home should invite conversations, not just TV-watching. We focus on individuality and details that reflect you.
