A look at the spaces we have poured our soul into. From vibrant classrooms that spark curiosity to auditoriums built for connection, this is our work in its truest form.

This 550-seat auditorium at Sri Kumaran School is a testament to what's possible when education embraces the arts. We designed this grand space not just to host performances, but to elevate them with professional-grade acoustics, intelligent lighting, and state-of-the-art AV systems, creating a truly immersive experience for both performers and the audience.

We believe play is serious learning. This soft-gym is designed for exploration and energy, with custom-built structures like a rolling wheel and climbing wall that encourage kids to be strong, quick, and adventurous. The dynamic design and vibrant colors create a space where children can truly thrive.

Welcome to the dream library we created for the nursery students at Sri Kumaran School. With whimsical reading pods, a central tree-like structure, and cozy, curved seating, this space is designed to make reading a magical adventure. It’s a sunlit, gentle world built to nurture bright little minds.

Learning doesn't stop at the classroom door. In the school's dining area, we used large, engaging wall graphics to tell stories about nutrition and healthy habits. This visual storytelling turns mealtime into a fun, educational experience, gently teaching children about balanced diets and immunity boosters.

A library is the heart of a school. For the older students, we designed a light-filled, classic library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and quiet study areas. The design balances traditional warmth with modern functionality, creating an inviting and inspiring environment for focused learning and discovery.

Who says washrooms have to be boring? We brought a sense of playfulness to every corner of the school, including the washrooms, with these custom pixel-art tile murals. Each floor features a different friendly animal, turning a simple space into a delightful surprise.

We translate a school's ethos into its physical space. This interactive "Value Quotient" word search puzzle in the corridor is a perfect example. It's a simple, engaging way to embed core values like commitment, empathy, and integrity into the students' daily journey through the school.

We created distinct, immersive worlds for each kindergarten level. This is a glimpse into the desert-themed classroom, where soft peach tones, cactus-shaped pinup boards, and beautiful wall murals create a warm and cohesive environment. The modular birch ply furniture allows for flexible learning setups, moving away from traditional plastic options.

About Featured

We do not just fill rooms with furniture; we design for how people move through a space. Notice how the kindergarten classrooms in our projects move away from standard plastic options, using modular birch-ply that teachers can reconfigure daily. It is about creating flexibility that evolves with the class, ensuring every corner—from the pixel-art tiled washrooms to the soft-gym—serves a real, functional purpose.

This sunken living room, inspired by old Kolkata homes, is one of my favorite designs.

I believe a pooja room should be a sanctuary of peace.

This bedroom is a perfect example of the calm and serenity I strive for with Japandi design. The arched door opens into a zen-like space with a custom fabric-padded bed and warm oak wood.

A kitchen should be both beautiful and highly functional. In this home, I designed a bright, open kitchen with a two-tiered breakfast counter and shaker-style cabinetry.
