About Us

Our story

A journal of spaces, stories, and the way we live.

Portrait of Shagun Mandhyani
Shagun MandhyaniFounder & Interior Designer

Welcome to our design journal- a glimpse into our journey of translating ideas, experiences, and ways of living into thoughtfully designed spaces.

We see interior design as an act of translation, giving physical form to moods, memories, and everyday experiences.

With over six years of experience across residential and hospitality design, our approach is rooted in understanding people, places, and their unique stories.

Philosophy

What guides our work

Four ideas shape every project, from a single room to a complete hotel.

  • 01

    Understanding the Context

    Every project begins with understanding its people, purpose, and surroundings. These become the foundation for design decisions that feel relevant and considered.

  • 02

    Translating Lifestyles

    Translating everyday habits, individual needs, and intangible experiences into spaces that feel intuitive, personal, and elevated.

  • 03

    Materiality & Atmosphere

    Exploring materials, textures, colours, and light to shape the character of a space, balancing functional requirements with the way it feels and is experienced.

  • 04

    Designing Individual Narratives

    Approaching every project as a distinct story, allowing its context, purpose, and people to inform an identity that is meaningful rather than formulaic.

How we work

A calm, considered process

From the first conversation to the final styling, you always know what comes next.

  1. 01

    Listen

    We begin with conversations about your needs, site and aspirations.

  2. 02

    Explore

    Sketches, models and options test ideas against brief, budget and context.

  3. 03

    Refine

    The chosen direction is developed into detailed, buildable drawings.

  4. 04

    Build

    We stay involved on site until the last detail is in place.
