About
Nisha is an experienced furniture and interior designer with a flair for creative writing and film making.
She loves to observe people and their surroundings, understand their lifestyles and listen to their stories to create an environment of security and belonging. She believes in designing spaces (or anything for that matter) with an approach that is more humane, more personal and more empathetic. To her, every space whispers a unique story. Every space has a meaning...
A little more about her -
A strong believer of sustainable lifestyle, Nisha loves designing up-cycled products. She moonlights as a documentary filmmaker and hopes to direct a feature film one day. Nisha has watched films that you never knew existed. Take down the names. You wont regret it! -
