Interior & Architecture Design — Lucknow · Dubai
A studio built on Indian craft, contemporary planning, and drawings precise enough to build from.
The Studio
Aarasta was founded in 2024 on the idea that a room already contains most of its own brief — in how the light falls, how people move through it, and what the people who live there have already chosen to keep.
Our work sits between two things that are usually kept apart: the craft traditions of Lucknow — chikankari, wood inlay, hand-plastered walls, reclaimed teak — and the spatial discipline of contemporary architectural practice. Neither is decoration for the other. We plan and draw to production standard, then let the materials, and the people who make them, do the talking.

What we do
The whole room, from first idea to the last object placed in it.

Spatial quality, site sensitivity, and how a building is lived in.

Layouts that earn every square metre.

See the room before it exists — accurately enough to decide.

Someone answerable for the contractor, the timeline and the finish.

One point of contact, from empty shell to the day you move in.

Process & precision
A visualisation is a promise. The drawing set is how it gets kept. Every project leaves this studio documented to production standard — elevations, sections, carcass details, hardware and material callouts, dimensioned to the millimetre — so the fabricator builds what was designed rather than what they assumed.

How a project unfolds

Weeks 1–2
We listen before we draw. How you use a room at seven in the morning, what you have collected, what you would never part with, what the site does with light across the day. The brief that comes out of this is usually not the brief you arrived with — and it is the one worth building.

Weeks 3–5
The spatial narrative takes shape: how the plan sequences, where the eye lands, what the room is made of. You receive a material palette you can hold, early layouts, and a clear visual language for the project. This is the stage where the big decisions are cheap.

Weeks 6–10
Everything is resolved and drawn. Dimensioned plans, elevations, sections, joinery and furniture details, specification sheets, and photorealistic visualisations of each key space. Nothing goes to site as a suggestion.

Programme-dependent
Build management with contractors and craftspeople we know. Site visits against the drawing set, sequencing, and the ordinary daily work of catching a discrepancy before it becomes a defect. Where the work is remote, coordination runs on a fixed reporting rhythm.

Final 2 weeks
Styling, final placement, photography, and the walkthrough where the house stops being a project. You get the full drawing set and specification archive — so that whoever touches the space in ten years knows exactly what is behind the wall.
Vision & Mission
Aarasta was founded on a straightforward conviction: that eco-conscious design and elegant design are the same project, and that the interiors worth making are the ones that will still be worth keeping in thirty years.
“Aarasta didn't just design our home — they redesigned how we live in it. Every decision felt considered and personal.”
