“Casa exotique was founded on the premise that there was a need for a specialized service catering to clients in search of uniquely crafted products and individualized solutions”
What motivated you to establish Casa Exotique? Tell us about the underlying idea behind the venture and some of its primary areas of specialization.
To bring the most immediate benefit to others, I decided to enter the field of design. Casa Exotique was founded on the premise that there was a need for a specialized service catering to clients in search of uniquely crafted products and individualized solutions.
Tell us about the most crucial challenges you encounter as an interior designer. How do you overcome the roadblocks that you face?
One of the biggest challenges we have to overcome is the fact that it's not always easy to put well-conceived ideas into practice once you get to the site. Hence, the greatest difficulty is in carrying out the plan while simultaneously ensuring high quality. As a result, this is where our worldwide exposure and IB come into play; after that, we essentially acquire or have the modification done internationally for our clients.
Tell us about some of the key milestones you have achieved throughout your professional journey. What has been your success mantra?
If I had to choose one accomplishment from my professional and entrepreneurial career thus far, it would be starting Casa Exotique and growing it into one of the best design firms in Delhi NCR.
Just putting in the time and effort is the secret to my success. For the most part, we can't just force our design preferences on the client; instead, we need to listen carefully to what they need. Furthermore, the point at which their requirements are being adequately met is also important.
How do you foresee the Indian interior design landscape evolving going forward? Which industry trends will create the most significant impact?
A rising educated populace, access to information from across the world, and a rising quality of living all point to tremendous opportunity. There is a lot of infrastructure development taking on in the country, and demands are rising in tandem with the real estate market.
