Arjun Rathi Design
Arjun Rathi Design is a multi-disciplinary studio working across Architecture & Lighting Design. The studio caters to designing and building Decorative Lighting, Glass and Lighting installations and artifacts. Working on both ends of the design spectrum, from single pieces made together with craftsmen to mass-produced objects developed in collaboration with the manufacturers; the studio is not defined by a particular style, but rather by questioning objects while considering their context and cultural associations embedded in them. We take inspiration from everyday things, which by a simple twist becomes something unexpected. We take care of each project phase – from on-site visits, exploratory studies, design and technical drawings to the final production and space atmosphere. Depending on the commission, we either design with a specific space in mind, or we work detached from it, resulting in a product usable in various spaces. The final product and accessories are always produced in our in-house manufactory, and therefore quality-certified. Arjun Rathi is a Mumbai-based architect running a multi-disciplinary studio working across Lighting Design called Arjun Rathi Design founded in 2012. Through his studio’s work, he interprets space through the lens of lighting, design fixtures, and installations that can capture our imagination and inspire us in these spaces. He is also the founder of the Rural Modern Glass Studio in Mumbai, which is India’s first art-glass studio.
