My father’s roots are from Andhra Pradesh in southern India. It is a storied region - culturally, economically, and personally.

October is my favourite month by far, and the list of reasons keeps growing. It’s also the beginning of many Hindu cultural celebrations, a festive season culminating for some in Diwali.

It was important to preserve the historic streetscape I’ve known since childhood, but renovation gave us the opportunity to introduce the modern.

Warm weather means I’m in Indian cottons as much as possible, block prints and airy cuts overtaking all other options.

Transitional spaces and transitional weather both need the same flexible approach when considering their design and style.
