This project is super dear to me.I had so much fun working on it because of who i was doing it for. 

fact file (insert that "khat khat" type writer noise as you read)

• clients: 2 photographers who also have other professions 
• project:fine art print boutique
• timeline: few months ( i really mean few)
• special: i was pregnant through out, so i worked with a lot of pregnant friendly/natural materials (true story) which could be sourced easily
• budget: affordable ( i know this has different definitions, lets say most of us would agree)
• background: old house needed a facelift (but long story short - just look at the old pictures)

I think this is designer week for me, 2 posts concentrating on two of the popular designers of the country from our very own Hyderabad. I had shared some pictures of the studio I had designed for Anushree a while ago; however a post is still pending and Archana had a photoshoot at the store a few weeks ago. I might be a bit partial but these two are talented or what! Definitely on my favorite designers list. Check out these pictures from the shoot at Room Therapy. While you ogle at the clothes, notice how gorgeously the decor goes with the concept. 

And for those who have questioned my intentions of speaking my mind on fashion- can't a girl love clothes and interiors?

I have been slacking with blogging- you won't believe how much. I promise I have a very very valid excuse. You guys won't believe but I do have at least 20 posts that I need to share. Meanwhile here's what I have been up to for the last one and a half years. My dream project, the home decor store that I have put together with all my heart and soul - which is now complete and opened on the 13th of July. For those of you in Hyderabad, please do come. Details at the bottom of this post. In the next few posts, I will be walking you through the process of the construction, the interiors and much more. Stay tuned and talk to me. I want to hear all about what you guys think.

With the attempt to help everybody have a beautiful home I started Room Therapy in a small room called the studio at home and after two long years of hard work, sweat and whatever else it takes I now have a store that was my dream but also a space which is not only an inspiration but a place to just come an experience and feel good. In my next few posts I will be breaking up the store into various elements and walk you through the process of building it. For now- lets look at the whole picture.

 I promise I will be back with more this time. Have a great week my lovelies. For those of you in Hyderabad the store is on:

Road No 45, Jubilee Hills
