A Journey Through History:
The story of interior design is rich and diverse, woven through thousands of years of human expression. In ancient times, home interiors were often created instinctively as part of the building process. As architecture became more complex, the need for effective and attractive use of space paved the way for the profession of interior design.
Did you know that the roots of modern interior design extend back to ancient civilizations? In ancient India, architects also served as interior designers. While architects today still contribute to interior design, the dedicated field has evolved, with a specialized community of interior designers who focus on creating harmonious and functional spaces.
Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, interior decoration largely fell under the purview of the homemaker, with well-off families often relying on upholsterers or craftsmen to influence their home’s aesthetics. It was during this period that architects began to hire artisans for interior design. By the late 19th century, interior design emerged as a distinct profession, led primarily by women who offered their design expertise for hire, paving the way for professionalization in the field.
The Foundation of Expertise:
A successful interior designer is backed by a robust education much like that of architects and engineers. Our team undergoes rigorous training that covers essential skills, from space planning to mastering advanced design software, allowing us to produce nearly photographic-quality 3 Dimensional images.

The advent of digital transformation in 1995, with Autodesk-accredited training, marked a significant milestone, leading to an exponential growth in demand for interior design education and practice.
