WITH THEIR UNIQUE DESIGN AESTHETIC, DISHA BHAVSAR & SHIVANI AJMERA OF QUIRK STUDIO HAVE AMASSED QUITE THE FAN FOLLOWING TO BECOME THE GO-TO DESIGNERS FOR CELEBRITY PROJECTS

Young, vivacious and ambitious. While these words aptly personify Disha Bhavsar & Shivani Ajmera, principal designers & co-founders of Quirk Studio, they could also well define their work thus far. The pair set up their practice in 2013, and although it’s been a short journey since then, their talent has won them numerous projects, many of which are homes and offices for celebrities. This is what has compelled us to anoint the pair (who also happen to be on this year’s iGen list) with the well-deserved moniker ‘celebrity designers’. In the following pages, we feature four such celebrity projects, which bear testimony to the aforementioned fact. From music director & composer Pritam Chakraborty’s vibrant studio; to stand-up comedian & writer Rohan Joshi’s monochromatic home design; and from the muted, yet earthy vibe of celebrity stylist Anisha Jain’s residence; to film actor & producer Jackky Bhagnani and his sister, film producer Deepshika Deshmukh’s luxurious office, each space follows a design language representative of its owners, albeit true to the identity of Quirk Studio as a brand.
