Fuelled by passion for good design and communication, Schbang Digital Solutions is a thriving millennial-run firm in Mumbai. Co-founded in 2015 by Harshil Karia, Sohil Karia and Akshay Gurnani, the agency thrives on being edgy yet relevant, helping clients see “completeness” and “the whole shebang” of creative marketing. When it came to concretising their principles in brick and mortar, the founders turned to The Ashleys, a boutique Mumbai-based firm set up by the talented interior designers, Pooja Ashley and Arbaysis Ashley.

“Sohil, the co-founder and a designer, wanted the office to exude young and creative vibes. A modest budget was the basic brief around which we spun the whole design ideology articulating it in larger fabric as well as finer nuances of detailing,” mentions Pooja as she explains how they wove their subtle trademark style throughout the project, creatively expressed with art, colour and restrained yet bold elements. “Our goal was to lend Schbang a design identity which would confirm uniqueness and an artistic approach,” adds Arbaysis.
