Hey everyone F27 here,

I’m an architect + interior designer currently open for freelance work and collaborations.

I work on:

• Residential architecture

• Interior design

• Facade concepts

• Space planning

• Vastu Consultation

• Renovations/ Remodel

• 3D visualization & walkthroughs

• Working drawings / presentation drawings

Software: AutoCAD, SketchUp, Lumion, Twinmotion, V-Ray, Photoshop.

I’m especially interested in projects that want thoughtful design instead of copy-paste Pinterest architecture. I like working with clean modern aesthetics, materials, lighting, and spaces that actually feel good to live in.

Open to:

• Freelance projects

• Remote drafting/modeling support

• Design collaborations

• Visualization/render work for architects & studios

Based in but available for remote work as well.

If you’re looking for someone reliable, detail-oriented, and design-focused, feel free to DM me with your project or requirements.

I wanted to change my 1 BHK flooring along with kitchen and bathroom tiles.

I’m confused whether I should involve an interior designer or just take quotations from contractors and get the work done directly through a contractor.

Are there any disadvantages of not involving an interior designer?

For civil renovation works like flooring, tiling, bathroom, kitchen basic work — is an interior designer actually needed or can a good contractor handle everything properly?

Would love suggestions from designers and people who have done similar renovation work.

We see this advice everywhere- ‘small homes need interior designers because every inch matters.’ Sounds right, but it’s only half true.

Yes, an interior designer helps if your space is genuinely tricky- awkward layout, no storage logic, too many people in too little space. They can reduce daily friction.

But a lot of small homes don’t have a space problem. They have a decision and lifestyle problem. If your layout is standard and your needs are simple, a designer won’t be able to magically fix things like- overbuying storage, mixing too many styles, setting up your home for guests instead of yourself, etc.

With poor decisions, hiring an interior designer will help you will just end up with a nicer-looking version of the same issues.

Also, hiring a designer doesn’t automatically mean a better home. Plenty of spaces look great in photos but are frustrating to live in, especially small ones. So the real question isn’t ‘Is a designer worth it?’, it is ‘What’s the actual problem with your space, and what do you want from it?’

At the end of the day, it’s your house. The core ideas should come from you. Interior designers will just help you realise your dream, but it’s your dream after all.

So, me and my wife have been seeing interior designers and firms for designing our 3BHK apartment.

But the catch is, we are looking for someone who has expertise in working with Ikea products. Someone who can customise and work with Ikea systems like Besta, Eket, Pax, Billy, etc to design a beautiful and functional apartment for us.

I know, that Ikea products might not be the best, but the modularity it offers is what we are impressed with. Inserts, their own storage boxes that perfectly fit inside their own cabinets, accessories that can be added later, etc.

Is there any firm or Designer in Bangalore that you kind folks can recommend? Thank you :)

Parents are renovating the house and I didn’t realize how divided people are on the laminate vs veneer debate 😭 One side says veneer feels way more premium and “alive” because it’s actual wood. Other side says laminates today already look good enough and are way less stressful to maintain long term, especially in Indian homes where dust, moisture, scratches, etc are unavoidable.Went down a rabbit hole visiting showroom went to this Royale Touche while researching, and now I’m even more confused because both sides make valid points.

What’s confusing me is that almost every interior designer pushes veneer emotionally, but most homeowners I know seem happier with laminates after 2–3 years of actual usage.

Hi everyone,

We are gearing up for a pretty comprehensive home renovation project and are looking for recommendations for an interior designer who specializes in or has a strong portfolio in Modern Indian interior design (sometimes called contemporary South Asian or "Global Desi" fusion).

We love the warmth, rich textures, and heritage elements of traditional Indian design (think brass accents, intricate woodwork, vibrant textiles, or localized art), but want to seamlessly blend it with a clean, functional, modern aesthetic—avoiding anything that feels overly heavy, dark, or cluttered.

Ideally, we are looking for a designer who:

• Offers virtual consultations/remote design services (or is based in the US).
• Has experience bridging traditional South Asian elements with modern layouts, lighting, and finishes.
• Can provide spatial planning and material/furniture curation.

If you have personally worked with someone you loved, or if you are a designer yourself with a portfolio that fits this vibe, please drop a link or send a DM!

Thanks in advance!
