Biography

Ar. Shruti Soni is an architect and interior designer, a graduate of Parul University. She began practising early in her career and has more than 15 years of experience in architecture and interior design.

She leads every project from the first site visit to handover. The studio's own team of vendors carries out the work, and where a client brings their own vendors, the studio supervises them.

Her own studio is built from memories. The architecture drawings she made in college, scanned and printed on canvas, line the working area, and the tools she used then form the wall in front of her desk.

Architecture

Every project belongs to a place and is justified by a need: a family that needs room to live, a doctor who needs patients at ease, a team that needs somewhere to work.

We start with the people and the budget, and we keep both in view until handover.

Beautiful, within budget

We believe a space should be beautiful and classy without costing more than it should. For us that is a discipline. We understand what the client truly needs, plan around the budget from the first meeting, and spend where it shows.

A little secret

Beyond the needs, we look for something that cannot be measured: a little secret. It is one small, unexpected element in each space, hidden or personal, that the client discovers and talks about.

In our own office it is a closet behind a wall of tools from college. Push it open and a projector turns the cabin and the garden into a conference hall.

From inside out

The work moves from inside out. We begin with how the space will be lived in, then shape the outside to agree with it: the light, the view, the street and the climate.

Ideas start in the sketchbook, as they did in 2015, and move through layouts and elevations down to the smallest detail on site.

We want each space to feel made for the person in it, with one surprise that belongs only to them.

Consultation before you build or buy

Before you buy a flat, a shop or a plot, or sign a lease, a visit to read what the space can become and what it will cost you.

A site visit, an opinion on the spot, the feasibility of your plans and an indicative budget.
