An experienced multidisciplinary designer and researcher, she has worked on a diverse portfolio spanning high-end residential projects, office spaces, and furniture design, alongside volunteer initiatives. She holds an MA in Interior Design from the Royal College of Art, specializing in speculative spatial design futures and research. Her practice is characterized by rigorous research, critical thinking, and context-sensitive collaboration, with a strong focus on micro-spaces and sustainability. Passionate about community-driven design within socio-cultural contexts, she strives to create sustainable, impactful solutions by blending storytelling with spatial design. Her interests lie in intertwining research into projects to explore the narratives of spaces, histories, and futures integrating psychology and human emotion into the design process.
A fast learner with proficiency in a wide range of software and technical skills, she brings strong organizational abilities and a collaborative spirit to every project. At RCA, she served as Student Ambassador and core member for the 2024–25 InsideOut Lecture Series, RCA’s only student-led lectures leading the content team and inviting interiors and architecture practitioners to discuss “Game Changers.” Her professional and academic journey has been recognized with multiple awards and distinctions, reflecting her consistent commitment to excellence and innovation.
Project Description – Tides of Resilience
Her MA research project investigates the luxury cruise industry’s effects such as pollution, overtourism, and economic dependency on marginalized communities and explores decolonizing futures by reframing development through indigenous knowledge and agency. It culminates in a speculative spatial film set in 2032 that envisions a resilient future for the Andaman Islands following a climate-triggered tsunami. The narrative follows a survivor who has lost her home, land, and identity, weaving memories of gender oppression with indigenous wisdom as the community launches the Habitation Shipscape Program. This initiative repurposes decommissioned cruise ships into floating shelters, schools, clinics, and community hubs for humans and non-humans alike. Inspired by India’s stepwells as geometric mazes around a central well once used for water, gatherings, and rituals. The design preserves the cultural role of communal spaces.
Powered by renewable energy and fusing traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to generate local jobs, the program’s cultural revitalization through community-led agriculture, heritage storytelling, environmental reconnection, and digital handicrafts paves the way for ecological recovery, economic renewal, and gender empowerment. Its compact layout with top-deck farms, livestock sheds, and shared workshops ensures all essentials (water, food, healthcare, education) lie within a few minutes’ walk, while women access resources and opportunities through embedded digital literacy, entrepreneurial mentoring, and design partnerships.
