Questions
What people
often ask us.
General
Our two studios are in Mumbai (Chembur) and Chandigarh (Sector 8-C). We work with clients across India and abroad.
Yes, we work with clients across India and abroad, and travel wherever the brief calls us.
The simplest way is the Contact page. We respond personally within two working days and arrange a first conversation.
Interior Design
Classical, neo-classical and modern, and frequently a quiet conversation between them.
Every project moves at its own pace. We share an indicative schedule once the brief and scope are clear.
Custom Furniture
Yes. We accept individual commissions, subject to workshop availability.
In our own workshop, by craftsmen we have worked with for many years. Each piece is signed and numbered.
Yes, we arrange shipping across India, and internationally on request.
Process
Four acts, patiently paced, Discover, Design, Curate, Deliver. We begin with a long conversation and a site visit, develop the brief through drawings and material palettes, then move to workshop sampling and a managed install.
As involved as you wish to be. Most clients meet us at key milestones, brief, concept, material approvals and install, and we share progress between in a clear, considered rhythm.
Our team supervises the site through to handover, coordinating contractors, vendors and finishing trades. You receive the keys to a finished, styled home.
Materials
Solid teak and walnut, Italian and Indian marble, brass and bronze cast in Moradabad, hand-blocked cottons from Bagru and Sanganer, cane, lime plaster and travertine. Each project carries its own palette.
We source close to home where we can, working with artisans we have known for years, and farther afield only when a material truly asks for it.
Yes, all wood, stone, fabric and metal finishes are sampled and presented for approval before they enter the build.
Collaboration
Often, yes. We collaborate closely with architects, contractors and landscape designers, and step in at whichever stage of the build best suits the project.
Absolutely. We are happy to integrate trusted vendors into our process, while maintaining a single point of design accountability through the studio.
Consultation
A long, unhurried conversation, ideally on site. We listen to how you live, walk the space, and talk about references, materials and the feeling you want the home to hold.
The first conversation is on us. A more formal scoping visit, with measurements and a written brief, is billable and adjusted against the design fee should you choose to proceed.
Whatever helps you tell the story of the space, floor plans, photographs, references, and any heirloom pieces you wish to keep. We take it from there.
Pricing & Timeline
Most projects are on a percentage-of-cost basis with a clear minimum design fee, agreed up-front. We also work to fixed fees for defined scopes.
Yes, after the first walk-through and brief, we share a transparent indicative range so we can plan together.
