Architecture + Design|April 2024
With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Industrial Design from the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design, Anjali paints bespoke luxury as a delectable blend of familiar comfort and tantalising novelty - bespoke luxury is like cheese infused with the heady aroma of truffles.
ANJALI MODY

The cheese represents wholesomeness and familiarity, while the truffle adds a dash of uniqueness and glamour.

LUXURY = FAMILIARITY

"To me, luxury would be the flavour of cheese with high notes of truffle. It's like a wholesome cheese, familiar and inviting, yet infused with hints of truffle, offering a touch of uniqueness, novelty, and deliciousness. Most luxury to me is like this, it's familiar because it's made especially for you, but it has strong undertones of dazzle and glamour."
