The design world is all abuzz with the vibrant talent of Rupesh and Archana Baid two dynamic designers who've quietly but resolutely made their indelible mark on the scene. Their design philosophy is as boundless as the sky, and they believe in the power of design to unlock happiness, growth, and fun! These two free-spirited creatives found their passion for design at a very early stage of their life, and have since been designing not just spaces, but entire lifestyles using their magic wand. With their exceptional people skills, Rupesh and Archana forge lasting friendships with their clients, going above and beyond to create spaces that transcend mere function.
Down-to-earth and brimming with life, the Baid duo has a knack for pushing boundaries and reaching for the stars. From cosy abodes to sprawling mansions, from timid wallflowers to life-of-a-party, from modest beginnings to globe-trotting adventures, their infectious enthusiasm knows no bounds! Every project they take on is imbued with their meticulous attention to detail, and their award-winning work speaks for itself.
With his fiery red glasses perched confidently on his nose, Rupesh oozes charisma as he divulges his wildest dreams, while Archana - the unflappable backbone of the operation - stands steadfastly beside him, ready to take on the world. The Baid duo is poised for greatness, and their infectious enthusiasm is catching like wildfire!
The couple gets into a fun chat with Editor of Architect & Interiors India, SUMISHA GILOTRA.
AND... how did you emerge?
Our firm AND was born more than two decades ago, out of this emboldened passion that we harboured as young artists with the conviction to create grandeur spaces that transcend time. The design philosophy behind AND has always been the alchemy of regional traditions and global modernisation that paved the way for us to create every space as a 'timeless work of art'
