About us

The Design Chapel is a multidisciplinary design studio which creates inspired works in the fields of Interior Design, Architecture and Art. The motto of our design practice is to create and curate bespoke spaces which touch, move and inspire its occupants. We are passionate about creating spaces which are thoughtfully designed, beautifully crafted and artistically inclined. Through a continuous and careful dialogue with structure, details, art, material and order, we seek a holistic and tectonic approach in realizing design ideas.

The Design Chapel was established by lead Interior Architect Preshita Shah Gupta (B.ID) in 2014 and specializes in commercial, hospitality, high end residential and retail interiors. We provide our architectural services for individual residential bungalows, hotels, and institutional design projects. The studio provides complete end to end solutions to our clients right from the conceptual design, thorough planning to onsite execution, finishing and handover.

We help you turn the perception you have for your space into a reality. You can just sit back and relax while we design and craft the spatial solution best suited to your choice and requirements.

WHO WE ARE

The Design Chapel team comprises of dynamic, young, enthusiastic individuals with a keen knowledge and understanding of spatial aesthetics, creative processes as well as material and finishes. The team works in close harmony with the client to ensure that we create spaces that do not shout out, but have a design solution that comes across as understated, yet powerful and with soul.

She did her graduate research thesis on ”Cross Cultural Interactions and Identity : An enquiry into the evolution of domestic built form and its interiors in Goa through Centuries”which helped her understand how it is important for architecture and design to be rooted in its region, vernacular, culture and environment.

Being an accomplished artist and painter herself, Preshita is extremely sensitive to her socio – cultural influences and believes that everything around us in nature can inspire design and art. This had led her to fuse Indian art, crafts, graphics, color, textiles and motifs with contemporary sensibilities.
