How Kalyani Saha Chawla, Monika Choudhary and Rahul Bansal see the detail and discipline of lasting luxury
-
In Episode 5 of Schueco India's Inside View series, Elevated Luxury, presented in collaboration with Architecture+Design and Lifestyle Asia India, the conversation between Monika Choudhary (Founder, CDO and Growth Strategist, Habitat Architects), Rahul Bansal (Partner, groupDCA) and Kalyani Saha Chawla (Founder and CEO, Rezon Luxury Silverware) turns to what makes luxury endure. Is it the material? The craftsmanship? Or simply the way something holds its place in a family's life over decades?
LUXURY THAT LASTS
says Kalyani. Her connection to silver runs deeper than its shine. For her, it is luxury because it stays—changing hands, gathering history and eventually becoming an heirloom. For Monika, the answer is about grace over time. That means building for the long term, whether for a family or a space, so that design outlives the moment it was made for.
