Founded by Shabnam Singh in 1997, Project Co. is a design firm that creates spaces that are distinctive and timeless. In Delhi’s swanky Mehrauli neighbourhood is a 2000 sq ft ‘eco-chic’ boutique designed by Project Co. for fashion designer Ghazal Gupta. In a tete-a-tete with Home Review, Project Co. shared the nitty-gritty behind the eclectically designed and flora-inspired bridal boutique.

Project Co. is an interiors, exteriors and landscape design consultancy and is thus adept at infusing luxury into every detail. From conception through to completion, their operations are carried out on a turnkey basis. While working on blending functional needs with aesthetic sensibilities, “where each space tells a unique story,” Project Co. has cleverly integrated nature into the design aesthetic of the store by putting together recycled materials and plants.

For her boutique, Ghazal Gupta had a single-line brief - she wanted to include plants in her store and wanted greenery all around. A clear abstinence from the typical ostentation created using chandeliers, gilded décor, deep reds, and bridal motifs. Dubbing the boutique as ‘eco-chic’, Project Co. has given it a unique persona and character. Imagine walking into a bridal store and being surrounded by plants, sustainable materials and two large trees that have been retained in their natural habitat.
