We design and execute luxury interiors and architecture, balancing comfort with clarity. Our signature style is warm minimalism, with every detail custom-crafted to create a personal sanctuary.

This is a design concept for a vibrant breakout area in a large coworking project. The goal was to create an inviting, energetic space using plush, colorful seating and abundant greenery, making it the perfect spot for both creative brainstorming and relaxed conversation.

Here, a flexible collaboration pod at the Thalia office is being used for quiet focus. I design these nooks to give people a choice in how they work, providing a peaceful escape within a bustling open-plan environment.

I was incredibly honored to receive the 'India's Best Design Project 2024' award for our Evelyn penthouse project. This recognition is a testament to my team's dedication to pushing creative boundaries and delivering exceptional quality in every detail.

The design process is rarely glamorous, but it is where the magic begins. This behind-the-scenes shot from a retail site shows the raw potential of a space, with the classic checkerboard flooring laid and the custom shelving units beginning to take shape.

This living area from our award-winning Evelyn penthouse project embodies my philosophy of warm minimalism. The custom curved sofa in emerald green, sculptural lighting, and a mix of textures create a space that is luxurious yet deeply inviting, perfect for both quiet evenings and lively conversations.

This is our viral statement bar unit, a piece of functional art. Designed for our Evelyn duplex project, its pod-like structure with an ombre finish slides open to reveal a fully functional bar, complete with smart storage and a mirrored counter. It’s a conversation starter that blends innovation with luxury.

For this child's bedroom, we designed a world of imagination. The centerpiece is this cozy, circular reading nook built into the wall, surrounded by integrated shelving for books and treasures. It’s a functional and playful sanctuary for a child to read, dream, and grow.

A staircase can be more than just a connection between floors; it can be the home's sculptural heart. This floating staircase, crafted from a single block of marble, appears to defy gravity. It’s a testament to precision engineering and our commitment to creating breathtaking architectural moments.

In a city like Mumbai, a spacious terrace is the ultimate luxury. We designed this 1,000 sq.ft. outdoor oasis as a true extension of the home. It’s a versatile space for morning yoga, quiet reflection, or hosting parties under the stars, surrounded by lush greenery.

My Story

Started out solo, doing everything—designing, stressing, learning on the go. Now, MJ Architects is me and six fantastic designers, each bringing their own spark. We’re more like a family, honestly. My mom even painted a mural for one of our projects—super close to my heart. Awards are nice, but working with people I admire, that’s the real win. If you’re building something, take your time. It’s worth it.

My Work

Luxury Interior & Architecture - We design and execute high-end homes, duplexes, flagship retail stores, and modern offices.

Rich, Warm Minimalism - We use earthy textures and warm minimalism—no glossy finishes. Spaces are meant to be felt, not just seen.

Custom Everything - From bespoke furniture design to custom hand-painted murals and statement lighting, nothing’s off-the-shelf.

Design for Real Lives - We love big projects—homes for families, offices for teams—where design is a genuine conversation.
