The says that it’s high time we treat everyone equally and women should get over from settling down for mediocrity and start thinking big. She shares her views with us and tells us about her journey of taking up designing as a lifestyle.

Why did you choose this line of profession for yourself? What was your inspiration?

I have always loved cleaning spaces, this led to styling and styling led to building spaces that one can enjoy in and out. It’s more an innate sense of aesthetics which now allows me to not just think creatively, but also deliver what we imagine and desire.

Being creative, I’ve worked in advertising as well as graphic design before realising that design can not be limited to just a few fields or categories... it’s a lifestyle. This led me to evolve into an interior designer and a stylist. I also love plating up my everyday food also beautifully… it just doesn’t stop!

What helped you in being a successful entrepreneur?

Success comes from never resting on one’s laurels. We have completed over 1,000 projects in the past 20 years, but still we are constantly exploring what exclusive offerings can bring value to our customers, and we are particular about adding an element of originality to each project.
