About Retail & Institutional Design
How I See Design
Design, for me, is about making spaces that actually mean something. I want people to walk in and feel the vibe - whether it’s a brand’s story or the pulse of a community. I always start by listening, so the final space feels personal and sticks with you.
Retail Spaces: More Than Just Shopping
I don’t do cookie-cutter stores. I build immersive journeys where your brand comes alive.
- Every corner tells a story, so you don’t need a bunch of signs.
- I translate your brand’s quirks and legacy into the space - from the big gestures down to the tiniest material choice.
- I love experimenting with product displays, turning them into brand experience centers that feel fresh but still human.
I’ve worked on everything from luxury showrooms to massive experience hubs.
Institutional Spaces: Where People Belong
Offices, clubhouses, theatres - I design places that feel good to be in.
- My offices are all about biophilic design - lots of light, greenery, and finishes that make people want to stay.
- Clubhouses are the emotional heart of a community, with zones for work, play, and family.
- For theatres and special venues, I get into the nitty-gritty: acoustics, lighting, and comfort.
What Guides My Work
- Nature is always part of the plan - I use natural light, green views, and even recycled stuff like glass mosaics.
- I layer textures and materials for warmth and depth - clay, stone, wood, you name it.
- Lighting isn’t just functional, it’s the silent architect shaping how you feel in the space.

My Story
Hi, we’re Studio IAAD. Eighteen years, and still, we’re learning, changing, laughing, arguing, and building together. Spaces, for us, are not just walls and floors - they’re memories, moods, and a bit of you in every corner. Being called ‘Leaders Shaping India of Tomorrow’ by Fortune India? Felt good, sure, but the real win is when a space feels right for you. Our studio is a mix of old hands and fresh minds, always talking, always creating.
My Work
What we do - We design interiors and architecture for homes, offices, retail, restaurants, clubhouses, and more.
Design that feels like you - We listen, then build spaces that fit your story. Not just pretty rooms, but real experiential spatial design.
Spaces that connect - Think clubhouses, open plans, indoor-outdoor living spaces - we try to make places where people gather and belong.
Sustainable, always - Eco-friendly workspace design is our thing - we reuse, recycle, and keep nature in mind, always.
Collaboration above all - We work with you, not just for you. Good design is a conversation, not a monologue.
