Aniruddh Rathi Architect Interior Designers

Aniruddh Rathi Architect Interior Designers operates out of 2/4/2 Mehak Apartment in New Palasia. It’s more of a residential setting, which actually feels quite nice compared to a cold office building. We have turned a few rooms into our workspace. There are desks everywhere and the walls are covered in pinned-up sketches and notes. New Palasia is a good spot to be, and since we are in an apartment, it feels more like a home than a business. We often have tea while looking over floor plans or talking about where a sofa should sit in a living room. It’s not a fancy setup. We have some old shelves full of books about design and a lot of pens that always seem to run out of ink when you need them. Clients come over and sit on the same chairs we use for our lunch breaks. It’s all very informal. We focus on getting the work done and making sure the drawings make sense for the builders. Sometimes the apartment gets a bit cramped when we have a lot of samples lying around, but we manage. It’s just how we work. Being in Mehak Apartment keeps us grounded and reminds us that we are designing spaces for real people to live in. We don't need a corporate lobby to get the measurements right for a kitchen.
